Great and easy project.  I made a halo with gold wire. Made the stem long, and with an awl made a hole behind the staple on the wings (being careful not to make it to big) to push the stem through. On the bottom of the wings, bent the bottom of the wire to make an "L" shape and included th bottom of the "L" in the puddle of hot glue. The hanging wire goes right through the halo to hang it.

Pt 2 :)--You can then bend the "halo" part down at a 90 degree angle and use the two long "tails" to glue it to the back of your project. The tinsel stem gives the glue a little something extra to "grab" onto so it will hold better on your project. I've used this on lots of projects. For a larger angel you can use the entire stem--even sliding lightweight beads onto the stem before twisting--just as long as they don't get too heavy and weight down the stem. Thanks for the tutorial!

Hi! Very pretty ! I love your angels just the way they are, but if you really wanted a halo you could try using a tinsel stem that would match your colors--silver, gold, or iridescent white. I usually cut one in half and wrap it around something round that is the size I want--a sharpie or a large dowel works great. Then I twist it a couple of turns next to the dowel and slide it off. This gives me a "halo" plus two long ends. Either twist the ends together or just hold them together.
