Directions How To Make A Hankie Angel
- Iron a handkerchief flat and place the hankie with the embroidery facing down and away from you. Place the cotton balls near the bottom of the handkerchief.
- Roll the handkerchief up towards the top of the handkerchief, leaving a small corner loose.
- Turn the hankie roll over and pull both ends of the handkerchiefs towards the center and have the ends cross each other
- Tie a ribbon in the center of where the handkerchiefs ends meet. You have now created the angel wings.
- Stick the angel head (directions below) between the angel wings with the head pointing towards the front of the angel.
- Now tie the ribbon over the pipe cleaner and below the hankie head to attach the head to the angel body.
- Turn the angel around and bend the pipe cleaner up to make a U shape.
- Congratulations, you have just made a hankie angel.

Directions For Making The Halo Angel Head
- Take the pipe cleaner and create a small hoop to make the halo for the hankie angel.
- Now take the other end of the pipe cleaner and bend it to meet in the center. This will create a small hoop which can then be used as the hoop for the ornament.
- Now from the center, bend the pipe cleaner down half an inch.
- From the center of the pipe cleaner, push the edge of the pipe cleaner into the hole that is predrilled into the wooden doll head. You won.t need to use glue to attach but you can if you desire.
- Congratulations you have made the angel head.
