You know it's Christmas when you hear a choir singing at the shopping mall; in the school pageant; on the car radio while driving to the school pageant! 

With this easy Christmas craft you and the kids can sing together as you create your own choir of angels. The angel is made with a simple kitchen item you can easily recycle for this fun project.

Angel Christmas craft

I've provided instructions for a silver angel and a gold angel, but you can be creative in your own way. Complete the angels with any materials you have on hand.

The basic supplies needed to make these beautiful angels are funnels and foam balls. If you don't have a funnel handy, you can make a cone shape with construction paper like we did for these Christmas trees.

Gold Angel

Materials list for gold angel 

• poinsettia leaf
• chenille stem
• embroidery thread
• lace trim

Instructions for gold angel

1. Turn a funnel upside down and press a foam ball firmly onto the tip.

2. Glue craft eyes to the face and draw a tiny mouth.

3. Glue yellow embroidery thread onto the head for hair.

4. Wrap lace trim around the funnel. Tape or glue at the back.

5. Cut two leaves from a gold poinsettia spray and glue to the back for wings.

6. Make a circle with a yellow chenille stem for the halo. Leave an end that can be pushed into the back of the foam ball to secure.

Silver Angel

Materials list for silver angel

• bubble wrap
• chenille stem
• biodegradable glitter
• cotton ball
• aluminum foil

Instructions for silver angel

1. Spread glue over the funnel with finger tips or a small paint brush. Sprinkle glitter onto the glue.

• Alternately, wrap a piece of silver fabric around the funnel to form the angel dress.

2. Wrap a chenille stem around the neck of the funnel. Twist together at the front to form hands.

• Grownups might have to help kids with this step, but allow time for kids to give it a try!

3. Make a song book with a small rectangle of aluminum foil. Glue the song book onto the hands.

• You can help kids with this step as well, but encourage them to experiment with the design of their angels.

4. Cut angel wings from bubble wrap. Spread glue onto the wings and sprinkle with glitter.

5. Use cotton fluff for hair. Glue craft eyes to the face and draw a tiny mouth.

6. Wrap a chenille stem in tinfoil to make the silver halo or use a glitter chenille stem.
