Vintage Angel Ornaments


 This project was a cinch and the results are beautiful!

First I started with an old, yellowed, paperback dictionary.

 I tore out pages, rolled them into cones and glued them leaving the torn edges.
Next, I stapled 6 cones together at the tips.




 I applied glitter glue along the yellowed edges of the paper. 

I used gold but any color will do. 



Many thanks to the Graphics Fairy's beautiful images. 

I chose an angel, printed it on card stock and cut out only the head and arms.




 I then used the glitter glue again to highlight the wings and headband of the angel.

Next, I hot glued the angel to the cones.



I attached a circle of silver card stock to the back of the ornament for stability and attached a gold string through the opening.




 This made a beautiful vintage paper ornament!
