--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
No Sewing

Supplies:
1 Dish Towel
1 dishrag
1 square pot holder
(All should match or coordinate)
Ribbon (very narrow, in a color to go with the above) Small gold safety pins + Something to make the halo out of.

1. Take the dishtowel and lay on a table. Fan fold it and make sure the outside seam of towel ends in the same direction.. After fan folding, take the teatowel and fold in half. Very carefully measure down a couple of inches, cut a length of the ribbon to tie around there and make a bow.
(This forms the head). With the top above the ribbon, you need to kind of push the middle area back a bit to make it look like a hood over the face.

2. Take the dishrag and roll it up. After you get it rolled, then take another length of ribbon. Take the dish rag and put it around the dishtowel forming the arms. Tie back from the end of the dishrag a little, forming the hands.

3. Take a length of the ribbon and run it thru the loop of hotpad. Tie this as tight or loose around the pad to form the wings. The loop is what you use to hang it with. Now turn the angel face down (the pins come into play here). Lay the wings on the back of the angel. Then take one pin and catch a small part of the potholder right by the loop. Then catch part of the dishtowel and
another part of the other side of the potholder, and at the bottom of the wings you do the same.

4. With whatever you are using for your halo, form the circle for halo. Then fold over the end to put thru the folds of the towel and then bend the beads (or whatever) over for the halo.
