How to make a Christmas angel from a ribbon with your own hands

For making an angel, a hard decorative ribbon with wire is best suited, you can also take a ribbon from any dense material - nylon, satin, brocade.
And from satin ribbons and beads can be made.
We measure and cut off two strips from the selected ribbon, one -20 cm, the other - 15 cm.

We fold them with an accordion - small and large.

Now we take a large accordion and cut off the wire from one edge (we do not throw away the cut off strip, it will still be useful to us) and fix it with a thread. This is our Christmas angel ribbon skirt.

Now we take a small accordion and make a few stitches exactly in the middle - we got angel wings.

The most interesting thing remains - to collect our angel. For this we need a glue gun.
We take a skirt, squeeze a drop of glue onto the top and press the central part of our wings.
We squeeze out another drop of glue and glue the bead - we get the head of a Christmas angel from the ribbon.

Now we take a strip of ribbon with wire, which we cut off from the skirt, straighten it, fold it in half - we get a loop on which our angel will hang.
A drop of glue and you're done. Be careful with the glue so you don't ruin your new day craft.

Now we choose a decoration for our Christmas angel from ribbons - these can be rhinestones, snowflakes, flowers, beads and semi-beads.

We glue the rhinestone at the junction of the skirt and wings.

Now you can admire how beautiful we made an angel from a ribbon with our own hands, the master class is over. And using a ribbon 3 cm wide, you can make very small angels that will become exclusive Christmas tree decorations.

An angel can be sewn from felt or any other fabric, it can be made from paper, it can be woven from beads or even such unusual material as corn leaves. There can be a lot of creative approaches to creating an angel with your own hands.

Felt angel

We will need:

• Pieces of felt different colors(white, beige, purple, blue and yellow);
• Needle with threads;
• French pins;
• Scissors;
• Ribbon edging;
• sequins;
• Black beads for the eyes.

Cut out all the details from the felt according to the pattern. The color of each detail can be easily determined from the photo. Then take a rectangular piece of blue felt and consistently fasten on it and sew all the details with a neat seam. First there are wings made of white fabric, then the torso (dress), head and hair.

You can choose any color of the fabric for the dress, as well as the hair can be from black, yellow or brown felt. It will turn out very beautiful if the dress and wings are decorated with snowflakes or sequins embroidered with silver lurex. Eyes can also be embroidered with black thread or made from black beads.

Such a handmade felt angel will be a wonderful decoration for the Christmas tree.

fabric angel

Materials:

• Multi-colored fabrics (preferably thick satin or brocade);
• Scissors;
• Sewing accessories (needle, thread, pins);
• Ribbons, braid, lace;
• Thin wire;
• Beads, sequins, sequins.

First of all, you need to make a head from a small ping-pong ball or sew it with your own hands from flesh-colored fabric. Attach hair from yarn to the head, embroider eyes.

Then you need to sew the dress, decorating it with small decorative elements. Form a frame for the wings from the wire and cover it with fabric. Now fasten all the details and tie a thin satin ribbon around the angel's neck. You can also sew pens and gifts in the form of hearts for angels.

Knitted angel

We have to:

• Thin yarn;
• Cotton wool or synthetic winterizer;
• Hook No. 1-1.5;
• PVA glue;
• Food film;
• Scissors;
• Plasticine;
• Pins.

First, we knit all the details of the angel: dress, handles, head, wings. At the same time, we fill the head with a filler - synthetic winterizer or cotton wool. In order for the connected products to keep their shape, it is necessary to impregnate them with PVA glue and fix each detail with pins and plasticine. To do this, we form a torso from plasticine and put a knitted part on it, after wrapping the plasticine with cling film so as not to stain the product.

When the lace products are dry, you need to carefully sew all the parts together and tie a decorative thread to the back of the angel.

Beaded angel

We will need:

• Beads of different colors;
• Big bead;
• Thin wire.

Doing it yourself is very easy. Surely each of us has the skill of beading. By stringing beads on a wire, you can model the product yourself. A large bead is used as a head.

shell angel

To make with your own hands so cute and beautiful decoration for the Christmas tree you will need shells (1 large for the body and 2 small for the wings), a bead for the head, gold beads for the halo and a gold decorative thread.

All parts can be connected to each other with hot glue and a thin nylon thread.

Corn leaf angels

This angel is probably the most unusual and gentle of all. Who would have thought that this beauty could be created from such material as corn leaves.

To perform the angel, the inner leaves of the corn cob are used. In order for the leaves to become soft and elastic, they must be wrapped in a wet towel for a couple of hours. After that, it is very pleasant to work with the material - it is easily modeled and tied.

Angel in Greek means "messenger, messenger, bringing news." Therefore, making and presenting to a loved one is a great way to convey your best wishes, encourage and charge with positive energy. And that is why we collect our collection, because lovers of needlework actively use this opportunity and use different needlework techniques for creativity.
