Here are some more homemade decorations made with the ubiquitous pine cone. Hot glue a hickory nut or a buckeye to the top of a pine cone. The wings are made from a short piece of ribbon with wire edges. Twist the ribbon in the middle to give more of a wing shape and hot glue to the back. The arms can be make out of any number of things. Twigs would work. I used chenille stems, pipe cleaners, and even the beads on a string that come on rolls like ribbon. Hot glue under the wings or attach arms to the wings and glue on as a unit. A halo can be fashioned from the bead strings. I put stars in the hands of my angels but anything small will do, or you could put hands together as if they were praying. A piece of Christmas card could be fashioned into a hymn book. These make a cute table decoration, a tree ornament, a package decoration, or a gift to a friend who loves nature.
