DIRECTIONS

NOTE: Basic Wire Wrapping skills are needed to complete this project.

DIRECTIONS:
Place the beads onto the head pin in this order: Turn the heart bead upside down, and slip onto the headpin.

Next, slip on the angel wing bead of your choice.

Next, slip on the round facet bead for the head. Slip on the Heishi or Daisy bead for a halo if you want.

Using the round nose and chain nose pliers, wire wrap the remaining wire on the head pin into a closed loop. Cut off the excess wire. Attach the completed angel to a pin, earring wire or phone strap.

To add a bell - Using the round nose and chain nose pliers, make a basic loop at one end of the 3 in. of 24-gauge wire. Open the loop and add the bell. Close loop. Assemble the angel parts the same way as above.
