How to Transform Old Jeans into Angel Ornaments

How to Transform Old Jeans into Angel OrnamentsWho knew an old pair of jeans could find new wings? These denim angels are charming, a little quirky, and full of personality.

With gingham bows and tiny wooden faces, they look like they flew straight out of a country Christmas fair.

Crafting them is half the fun, you cut, tie, and stitch with your own rhythm, and before long, a little angel smiles back at you.

They’re a reminder that even scraps can be beautiful when given a purpose.

Materials Needed

  • Old denim fabric (from jeans, approx. 6” × 6” squares per angel)
  • Wooden bead heads (1-1.5” diameter, painted or plain)
  • Gingham ribbon (12” length per angel, ½” wide)
  • Small embellishments (tiny wooden heart, buttons, or beads)
  • Twine or jute string (6-8” length)
  • Hot glue gun or fabric glue
  • Scissors
  • Needle and thread (optional)

Step-by-step Guide

Step 1: Cut your denim into a triangle shape, about 6” tall, to form the angel’s gown. Then fray the edges slightly for a rustic look.

Step 2: Fold the top of the denim triangle slightly and glue or stitch the wooden bead on top as the head.

Step 3: Tie a gingham ribbon just below the bead, forming a neat bow across the front. This will give the angel her collar and wings.

Step 4: Add small embellishments like a wooden heart or button at the bottom corner of the gown for extra detail.

Step 5: Attach a piece of twine to the back of the bead with glue to make a hanging loop.

Step 6: Repeat with more denim scraps, making each angel unique with slightly different ribbons, hearts, or tiny hand-drawn faces.

Tip:

If you want to make them more personal, embroider initials or tiny stars onto the denim gowns, it’s a subtle touch that makes them one-of-a-kind.
