how to make an angel pin

here are the supplies you’ll need to do this project (some of which can be found in our shop, just click on the words below):

recycled book pages, paint kit with top coat, brushes, tie pin back, angel wings, split-dress girl, E6000, drawing pencil

step 1: draw your angel’s hair and eyes.  i like to use a 0.3mm draftsman pencil with 2H lead.

 

step 2: paint and seal your angel.

 

step 3: cover the angel wings with strips of recycled paper using your top coat.

step 4: attach the wings to the back of the angel using the E6000, you’ll notice that i also painted the back of the angel with the solid color of her dress.

step 5: attach the pin to the back of the wings using the E6000.

and now your project is finished!  we’ll have a few of these painted angel pins at our booth at the upcoming renegade craft fair in brooklyn, we’d love to see you there!
