Sweet...a wonderful childrens church project. Also something I can share with my goddaughter and can use for just a little special touch on my gifts. Thanks for sharing.

[@catsonly4805]

This is the earliest video I see, making folded wired ribbon angels. They are so beautiful.

[@fontellahenderson2016]

You always make my heart sing eith joy when you show us how go make precious things. Love the Angels.

[@jeannenoto1489]

This angel is ADORABLE!! I want to make many of these. They would look great anywhere; on the tree, a gift package or wreath. She is so sweet. Thank you for sharing this DIY with us.

[@pamelacunningham7196]

Love this little angel thanks for sharing .

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

You are more than welcome! Thank you for watching my videos! :o)

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Awww! Thank you for taking the time to post such a sweet comment! That's one of the reasons I love this project so much...they are so versatile! I think the Christmas ones are my favorite because you can find such beautiful ribbon during that season. Thanks again for watching my videos! Blessings!

[@marlenejones6266]

I dont have a stapler but i can take a couple stitches in there. Cool little angel...might have to make a garland with them. I like the ribbon you are using as its very ethereal..from the thin sheer fabric the ribbon is made of.. wow..very pretty Lori

[@kathygrimes8502]

Too sweet. Thanks for sharing your amazing talents.

[@juneribbons5196]

Those are the prettiest little ribbon angels I've ever seen. I have some ribbon that I was trying to think what to do with. It would make into angels

[@kimwheeler8414]

Paper ones would also be adorable attached to a gift

[@RachelElliotte]

These are super cute! We do a memorial service every christmas for local mothers who have lost a child. We always give out little keepsakes to each mom. I usually make these keepsakes. This would be perfect to make this year. Thanks for sharing!

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

carlynicoleYT Awwww! This would be perfect Carlynicole! You could make them in pretty blues and pinks.I'm so glad I could help you out with this craft idea! :o)

[@motherinpain1961]

As a mother who has lost a child (he was 25, but still my child) I think your giving them as keepsakes is a wonderful and touching idea.

[@created2bless322]

That is a beautiful ministry! God bless you

[@marlenejones6266]

Oh my yes. Wonderful idea. They lost sweet little angels and giving them these angels is a very thoughtful way to help remember their angels.

[@veilbreak5867]

Lovely. They'd also look nice on a string with a fairy light behind each one

[@terrimcclure5736]

I’ve just found your Chanel and I absolutely love your ideas! You explain everything so well and you don’t go so fast like some people do. I’m 68 years old and love the way you explain everything to us. You are an awesome teacher!! Thank you so much for sharing your ideas!

[@dianedevor2010]

Thanks for sharing! God bless you too!

[@carmenanderson1098]

YOU ARE AN "ANGEL" to share your talent with us. I love your project and all the others' did also by their comments. Thank you again. You are a love!

[@wendyb7993]

Glitter pipe cleaner maybe for a halo. Thanks for this it’s fabulous

[@gradyc171]

Adorable angel. Loved I! Thanks for sharing.

[@jeannepackard1204]

Love those sweet angels. Thanks for sharing. Hugs and Blessings Jeanne

[@bonnieclyne5618]

This little angel is just gorgeous! I am going to make one for this year's Christmas decorations! Thanks so much for sharing. I love your projects. I watch your videos multiple times each, so I can see how to make some really neat stuff! Love them. Have a blessed day.

[@pammipayne3334]

I used the ring pull off a bottle of Ribena. It was glued on with my glue gun. I used glitter glue sticks which really did set it off. I love how you explain and teach. I adore glitter any time of the year but especially Christmas time. God Bless and happy crafting. x

[@DMContreras59]

WOW! Beautiful! And seems so EZ I can even do it. Thank you!

[@margielorance3937]

we make fruit baskets with homemade goodies for our shut ins at church and we will make these to tie on with the candy canes on the outside of the baskets. Love the idea. thanks

[@paperroses352kaufman3]

Very Pretty Angel, Personally I would of made a bow with streamers hanging flowing in the breeze. But yours is very pretty.Thank you for your wonderful ideas.

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

+paperroses352 Kaufman Thank you for watching! Your idea sounds pretty too! :o)

[@marionjohnson2375]

I love your work! I find your voice and process to be relaxing and encouraging. Iv learnt so much from you. Blessings.

[@darnelleechols8556]

The angel ornament is adorable. Enjoyed the tutorial. Thanks for sharing your idea!

[@wererich]

FANTASTIC!!!! Going to let my daughter make these for an upcoming craft show. She's super excited!

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Thank you very much, Denise! Let me know how they sell. I've had quite a few messages from various ladies who told me they completely sold out at their craft shows and fund raisers. :o)

[@barbarawalsh4936]

I'm going to make some of these tonight in red, silver, and gold. This is a cute and easy project. I will watch this again and craft it along with you. These would be for decorating a whole tree- an angel tree, with a large one at the top. Hey, try a small piece of gold chenille for the halo.

[@vickieschwartz6817]

She’s beautiful....thank you! 🙏🏽😍😍😍👍👍👍

[@sharonpeterson2378]

LOVE THIS! Decided to do the first practice angel using red plaid ribbon. It turned out so cute! so am going to do other angels using different colors of ribbon too. They will each be charming with it's own personality! Good instructions and glad I found this. Thank you! Merry Christmas and GOD bless.

[@mmalone7142]

These precious angels are beautiful, I will be making some and putting them in a altered keepsake box for my mom for mothers day, I would like to give them to her for her birthday in December but I don't think I could wait that long 😊. I know she is gonna just love them. Please let me say you are an excellent teacher! Thank you

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

+m malone Awww! Thank you so much Sweetie! I appreciate all your kind words! :o)

[@glmand]

Beautiful! I love it! Seems simple enough…I’m going to give it a try.

[@ca.r1334]

Hey Im back! :) Thought Id share something with you that I tried wile following your cute little Angel tutorial, ok, you know the ribbon you cut off for the dress? If you take that cut part, open it up (stretch it out I mean) and cut any little bit o the ribbon off leaving just that wired glittered edge, then cut off a little piece of that wired edge hot glue the ends together to make a "ring" shape, then hot glue to the Angels head, makes a great halo!!!!! Ive done 4 so far and I think they look pretty darned cute :)

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

April, I love it! Brilliant idea! I'm going to have to try this at home because it sounds just like what I was looking for. Thank you so much for taking the time to post this! :o)

[@ca.r1334]

you are very welcome! :)

[@darnelleechols8556]

C & A. R That's a very clever idea for a Halo. Perfect. Thanks for sharing.

[@marlenejones6266]

I did this....worked very nicely. And i also could not get any ribbon with the wide edging so i bought what I could find and it worked just fine. Its so cute. Shes standing on the manger to tell the world of The Birth

[@kathysilkyyhayden7176]

@@ca.r1334 Awesome idea!!! 😉😉😉😍😍😍

[@jeannepaglio5582]

For the halo, you could use a piece of gold ribbon. Sweet project.

[@marthajane7058]

ADORABLE. THANKS 4 SHARING. YOUR VOICE IS SO PLEASANT I ALMOST WENT TO SLEEP.

[@barbaravanburger3234]

I made many angels I used gold tinsel pipe cleaner wrapped around my little finger for the halo then a spot of glue to hold in place Thank you for he directions

[@unicornladytech]

Hi, I've made 3 so far and I used a twist tie & the wired part we cut off the dress to make a halo 😇. I also used, for the head, the round glass beads that are used in vases. I will hash tag you when I post them. Thanks for sharing this 👍🏾🙃

[@jkhegarty857]

Beautiful 😍! My only comment is...I would have used a silver bell & cording instead of the gold. For me, the silver bell/cording would match better with the BEAUTIFUL folded ribbon. Thank you for sharing! Great ornament! 👍

[@0774SPLV]

love that gold thread

[@saltydog8244]

Many "THANK YOU" years ago I had over 100 and they got thrown out never had the know how NOW I DO. More so a really great gift for people who love all types of items on a tree So very thoughtful to share your talents.🌹🌲🐦🐣🍭Merry Christmas My Jesus MERCY 🎊MRS.SALTY DOG

[@elizabethvallely4044]

So Cute! Yes they looks easy to make! Thank You For Sharing! God Bless Liz...

[@deborahturner4641]

That is such a sweet little decorations. Thank you for sharing.

[@Rita-yw2tn]

Thank u for this video I absolutely love it ! The angel is so cute & I'm definitely going to try this ! Plus u have the most soothing voice to listen too .

[@annmarie3520]

They are so cute! I’m not that crafty but I might be able to do this!!! Thank you! I was looking to make an ornament to go with little gifts for friends.❤️😘🎄

[@Angel-yl1ck]

💖Super. You are really good at tutorials. This is beautiful. Will make these. Then going to binge on all your vids! Blessings!

[@tammyhollandsworth6783]

I was looking at some other tutors and they just seem harder and more time consuming to make. Yours looks easy enough for me and my sister to make. They are so pretty and you can use different color ribbons. Thank you so much!

[@joannacieplak3107]

Super pomysł, nareszcie wykorzystam wstążki, które od 2-3 lat przerzucam z kąta w kąt.

[@lilachesniak9687]

So beautiful and elegant. Can't wait to start making them. I go to a Christmas cookie exchange and make the girls a little something. These are perfect!

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Lila Chesniak I love cookie exchanges! :o) You're right....I think this would be perfect to bring! :o)

[@debrarandall6913]

This is stunning! Please stay safe and well and GOD bless you and your family. :)

[@patsymezureux8673]

You make the most amazing tutorials, so easy to understand and beautiful crafts. Thanks so much

[@tinamckinney2328]

sparkly pipecleaners for halos.. these are adorable

[@TheHappyHomesteadingHerbalist]

Miss the group, but still enjoying your videos. Wish I had your talent

[@carollopez135]

Beautiful I love the cute little angels 👼🏻

[@gimmedatstick]

Pt 2 :)--You can then bend the "halo" part down at a 90 degree angle and use the two long "tails" to glue it to the back of your project. The tinsel stem gives the glue a little something extra to "grab" onto so it will hold better on your project. I've used this on lots of projects. For a larger angel you can use the entire stem--even sliding lightweight beads onto the stem before twisting--just as long as they don't get too heavy and weight down the stem. Thanks for the tutorial!

[@paulachesser7527]

This angel is so cute ..i love it

[@gimmedatstick]

Hi! Very pretty ! I love your angels just the way they are, but if you really wanted a halo you could try using a tinsel stem that would match your colors--silver, gold, or iridescent white. I usually cut one in half and wrap it around something round that is the size I want--a sharpie or a large dowel works great. Then I twist it a couple of turns next to the dowel and slide it off. This gives me a "halo" plus two long ends. Either twist the ends together or just hold them together.

[@carolwalker3375]

Beautiful projects. Just as yoyr butterflies are. Thank you.

[@evajawidzik2562]

Love your Angel's thanks for sharing ❤

[@birdieellenberis6741]

I love these and I will try to make them for my grand daughter to put on her tree. Thank you so much for this great idea.

[@TNBredRose]

I'm just now seeing this. I love it. I was looking for something to make to give too all the church members. Now, just to get my great nieces to help me. Thank you so much

[@marilynyoung8477]

They're so beautiful.

[@debbiedube1411]

Pipe cleaner for halo. Love your sight

[@sharonbeckett721]

These are just so cute! I have some of this ribbon in red so I'm going to try and make some today! Thank you 😊

[@swannee22]

Another pretty angel! Thank you for sharing your God given talents! A possible suggestion for a halo. Little rubber o rings found in plumbing covered in tinsel stem maybe then glued to head at the back? Maybe, I don't know for sure. Just a thought. Thanx again for your fun creations!!!

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Susan Fant Wonderful idea Susan! Thank you so much for your feedback! God bless! :o)

[@torismith997]

Thanks so much for this video. We are have a craft/bake sale at work to raise money for the Childrens Miracle Network. This is what I'm going to make. Happy Holidays!

[@barbaramorse1964]

This angel is real cute and you made so easy to make. I will try this. You did a great job.

[@louisewelch2873]

Just a darling little angel, I am gonna to make it, thank you for showing how to do

[@barbschueller4027]

Loved the video. You did a great job. Cute idea and reasonable to make. Price wise. Enjoyed the sound of your voice

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Very clever Linda! Thank you so much for sharing your idea!

[@Flutterbyebabe1]

I am definitely going to make these little angels for my tree and some for my little granddaughters who will love them. For the halo you could utilise the little hanger on top of the bell (head) and form your halo with wire and attach it to the head that way. I have done this before and it does work. I made a circle of wire, twisted it, cut off one of the 'legs' of the wire (heavy wire -not too thin) and left enough to attach to the head.. leave enough wire so that you can angle your halo over the head, a little dab of hot glue helps to keep it in place. Hope that works for you too. Thanks for your tutorial,I really enjoyed it.

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Eileen Wightman Eileen, I really like your halo idea! Thank you so much for sharing! :o) God bless!

[@aeylecmet]

Wow...this is awesome looking and so easy to do! Thanks for sharing.

[@brendascarborough2099]

That is beautiful and different. I love it and will be making some for my Christmas tree this year starting today.

[@barbarakukkonen4900]

Beautiful. And petite.

[@TheSwisscanada]

Thank you so much for showing how to make an angel. i made some after watching the video and taped it on gift boxes, instead of a bow

[@beveygirllikes3681]

For the halo you could try the wire you used to close the gift bags with the Santa sleighs. A small piece of the wire should be pliable enough to make a halo and leave a small length to glue to the back of the angel head. Hope this works. I love your videos.

[@sheilaharrington-shaw6793]

Love it. Try a shinny glittery pipe cleaner. you can cut it to size its great. Sheila.

[@sabrinaharris6538]

I have to admit, when I saw you staple the dress, then the wings, I thought, No I don't like this, but I kept watching, and it turned out so cute, I decided to give it a try. The first 1 I made was a red, white, and green 2" Christmas plaid, it came out so cute, I ended up making another, then 2 more with a 3 1/2" white with silver glitter snow flakes (glitter every where), and they are so pretty, so I just had to say, Thank You for sharing your time, and your talent with all of us. I have lots of 2" ribbon, so I'm sure there will be many, many more. Thank You. I used 1 1/8" beads for the heads, and glittery chenille stems for the halo, make a circle, then bend a stem down, and glue the stem to the back of the head with the halo sticking up.

[@margueritebrunette1167]

I just saw this and it is Nov. 2021. I love this and will make some this Christams. Thank you for the great idea and video that is easy to follow.

[@dianedavis3741]

I love your crafting like how you do the angels

[@sallymander1068]

So adorable! As someone else mentioned, pipe cleaners work great for halols.

[@lonnibaird8018]

A tinsel pipe cleaner would work for a 😇 TFS. These are so cute!

[@lindabrown7374]

Another adorable ornament! For the halo, maybe a bit of sparkly pipe cleaner?

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Good idea, Linda! Thanks for watching my videos! :o)

[@donnabrown1679]

Very cute ideas and simple to make and wouldn’t be expensive either. Nice, thank you.

[@melissamonroe561]

Adorably sweet & simply lovely!

[@carolcarter5966]

We were looking for something easy to make for the clients in the nursing home and this is perfect. Thank you ❤️

[@jen7916]

Super cute! For the Halo, maybe gold or silver wire would work😊

[@weeGeorgiegirl]

Hi, I love these little guys, I make them for all occasions this year I made them for easter,I just did the colors differently, and they were a great success, the kids just loved them and you're absolutelt right they are such fun to make, I cant wait for the holidays!! you are a great teacher and thank you so much for the video.

[@pattyshaw8300]

Love them have also made with feather wings are beautiful, so many ways. I make angels every Christmas some with lace and tulle love making for friends. Thanks

[@jillhirsh9260]

What about a chenille halo in silver or gold? Easy to shape into small circles, then glue to the bell? She is beautiful without the halo but I think the sparkly pipe cleaner sticks would work well. Thank you sharing this DIY, haven't seen many angles and none of them made with wire ribbon. Just beautiful. I plan to make many of them to decorate our tree next year. I have 3 cats who love to climb and perch in the branches of our tree, and am always looking for decorations that won't break if shaken off. Your angels would be just stunning all over the tree. Thank you for sharing and wishing you many blessings this holiday season!

[@christiedutton2751]

I adore this and your voice is so soothing.

[@linasbutcher1914]

You are so talented and thoughtful of us. That little angel is so pretty and precious. I appreciate you taking the time. To say what materials you use and how to use them. It makes it much easier to learn how to make them. Most people on here go way to fast. And won’t say what they use. Thank you for sharing your video with us. Merry Christmas and God bless you. ☺️

[@sanjose528]

Absolutely precious, figures, I ran out of hot glue today!

[@xzuna]

What a nice angel and so easy 2 make. Thanks for your tutorial. Most videos on the net are with hysterical commentary and constantly switching between all kinds of images. Yours is great !!

[@hairymelon5551]

Very pretty! I think there'll be a few of these adorable little angels on my tree this year. I have some acrylic snowflakes in silver and gold, also some tiny paper snowflake chain which I could use for the halos as part of my frost and snow theme this year.

[@HappyBirdsGlitterNest]

Thank you so much for commenting! I do appreciate you watching my videos! :o)

[@melissawallace51]

For the halo try it with stronger wire and make the halo shape then glue and glitter, that may work. Good job.

[@debhendrick9873]

That is so beautiful. Hugs and God Bless
