In general, to make Christmas decorations with your own hands, especially angels, is some kind of sacrament, without which it is impossible to imagine Christmas and New Year.

Take two lace napkins, carefully coat them with PVA glue. This glue is white and will not be visible on napkins, but will give them rigidity. To prevent lace from sticking to your table, use wax paper. Let them dry. Make a cone of foam or hard cardboard, to which, using hot glue or any other building glue, attach the head and handles of your doll. If you use polystyrene, then you can first attach toothpicks to the head and handles, and only then, having smeared the base of the handles and head with glue, insert them into the foam base.

Decorate the cone with one napkin, like an angel’s dress. Lay beautiful deep folds. Insert the handles into the holes that are in any lace. Fasten the napkin to the head with a few drops of glue and a beautiful ribbon.

Fold the second napkin in half and glue the craft on the back - these are the wings. So your angel is ready. You can plant it on top of your Christmas tree.
