The Steps for How to Make the Easy Angel Crafts: Paper Star Angel Ornament:

Print both pages of the Easy Angel Crafts Paper Star Angel Ornament pattern page. It makes it easier if you can print the pattern on the paper you plan to use for the project. Regular 8 1/2 x 11-inch printer paper (20-pound) works just fine but 24-pound is better. It has more stability.

Copy the five star patterns and the one set of wings pattern to the paper for the Easy Angel Crafts Paper Star Angel ornament.

Use a pin or the tip of the scissors to make a small hole in the center of each star.

The hole should be just large enough for the wire inside the chenille to pass through.

The hole should be small enough for the stars to not slide easily on the chenille wrapping the wire.

The chenille should hold the stars apart.

The wings fit across one of the folds in the small star.

Position the wings on the star to see where the glue should be placed.

Make a loop in one end of the chenille wire.

This will be under the bottom of the largest star.

The loop will prevent you from inadvertently pushing the bottom star off the chenille wire.

The wooden doll head is at the top and each of the stars increase in size with the largest at the bottom.

Space the paper stars from 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 inches apart as you add them to the chenille wire.
