This is a simple craft, that can be adapted to make snow angels, snowpeople, gingerbread people, birds and anything else your heart desires. I like the idea of using old newspapers, flyers or wrapping paper to re-use, but I encourage you to use whatever you like. The Angel chains can be hung up above windows, on a tree, or used to decorate gifts. I’m making them in memory of Jule Koch who loved paper crafts and whose love and determination held the paper together these past 16 years.
You will need: 1 pair of scissors, 1 pencil, clear tape, 1 newspaper or printer paper or any paper of your choosing
1. Cut out one page of the paper, then cut that page in half.
(I like placing one of these halves over the other and folding them at the same time, but one at a time is easier for your first angel chain)
2. Fold page in half lengthwise.
3. Repeat twice, you should have a small rectangle.
4. Draw the template of one half of a head, 1 wing, an arm, and a robe. Make sure to have the wings and arm pointing towards the open side of your folds.
(I also included ruffles along the bottom of the robe and wings, a little circular mouth and a half heart for fun)
5. Cut along your lines, making sure not to cut too much on the folded side of the rectangle.
6. Using the clear tape, attach rows of angels together
The finished product!
