Battenburg Lace Angels
*2-10" round white battenburg doilies,
*1" wood furnicture button (I used round wood cutout instead.)

*24 gauge gold wire, 6 inches *1/4" white satin ribbon, 2/3 yard
*hot glue gun
*misc. items: sewing needle, white sewing thread, scissors,
cotton swab,powder blush.
To make the wings,
run a gathering thread across center of one doily.
Pull threads tight and knot. DO NOT CUT THREADS For the hanger, knot
threads 2 inches above first knot.
2:to make the dress, fold back top sides of second doily, spot glue at top.
Turn under top 1 inch and glue to the center of wings.
3:to paint the face, paint tiny brown nose on furnicture button. Use brush
handle to dot brown eyes and red mouth, let dry. Apply blush to cheeks with
damp cotton swab.
4:to make hair, wrap yarn around three fingers five times. Thread wrap at
center, knot. Glue hair to top center of head.
5:to make the halo, bend gold wire into a 1 1/2" circle, twist ends together. Glue twist to the back of head.6:to finish, glue head to dress top. Tie a 4 loop ribbon bow with long streamers, glue under neck. Good luck.
