How To Make Christmas Our Snowflake Angel Craft

Just follow the simple instructions to make your snowflake angel

Step 1 - make the angel body

white wooden table with sheets of white A4 paper - a circle drawn in pencil on the top sheet of A4 paper - pencil and scissors are alongside the circle.

Draw around a circular object (I use a saucer or small plate) with a pencil on white A4 paper.
Cut the circle out.
Fold this circle in half and glue it together with either PVA glue - making sure you glue the lollipop stick inside the angel dress.
Then decorate the angel dress with glitter - just spread with glue and sprinkle the glitter.

Step 2 - make the angel wings for your angel craft

Draw around a slightly smaller circular object with a pencil and cut it out.
Then fold the paper circle into half and half again (and again if not too small)
Then use scissors to cut out small shapes - then open up your paper circle to show your decorative paper snowflake, which you could just use as a window decoration if you liked.
Cut your paper snowflake in half and then ruffle up the halves a little - almost like a fan - glue them to the back the angel as wings.

Step 3 - make the angel face

Hand draw a little circle face, draw on eyes, nose, mouth and little rosy cheeks and colour in.
Cut the angel face out.

Step 4 - make the angel halo

To create the angel halo cut out a small piece of paper (similar size to the head piece) in the shape of a thin crescent moon.
Paste it with glue and sprinkle on gold or silver glitter to make a shiny halo.

Glue the angel halo slightly behind the angel head and then glue the angel head onto the body on the lollipop stick.
