Materials

  • 1 sheet of music paper (8.5x11 inches)
  • 1 wooden bead (¾ inch diameter)
  • 1 ribbon or string (10 inches long)
  • Hot glue gun and glue sticks
  • Scissors
  • Optional: gold paint, glitter, or ink pad for edges

Instructions

  • Cut the music sheet in half horizontally. One half will form the angel’s body, and the other will become the wings. Then fold each section accordion-style, making pleats about ½ inch wide.
  • For the body, fold the pleated paper in half and secure the top with glue or a small string to create a fan shape. You need to repeat with the smaller half to form wings.
  • Glue the wings to the back of the body section so that they spread slightly wider. This creates a graceful, layered effect.
  • Thread the ribbon through the wooden bead to make a loop for hanging, then glue the bead onto the top center as the angel’s head. Hold it for a few seconds until it sets firmly.
  • Optional, you can brush the edges of the paper with gold paint or glitter for a subtle festive glow. And now hang your angel on the tree or use it as a gift tag topper.
