Fasten off, weave in ends.
Finishing both sizes:
Apply Tacky glue to area of wooden plug where hair is desired. Dip plug in seed beads. Allow to dry.
With hot glue attach body to wing (placing the join on head at the center top), with edge of body slightly below dip in wing.
Glue head to top of body, with top of head slightly above top of body.
Make a bow out of ribbon, and with hot glue attach bow to body, just under the head.
When glue has cooled, apply a small amount of Tacky glue to center of bow and press acrylic jewel or rosebud to center of bow.
For small size, glue pin back or magnet to angel back.
For large size, cut about a 6 inch length of gold cord and run it through a stitch at the center of wing. Tie the cord in an overhand knot.
Notes:
The angel could be assembled using only hot glue, but for me the combination of Tacky and hot glue works best.
When gluing the head to the body pressing down on the head for a few seconds gives best results.
When gluing the ribbon trim, I pressed down with a round toothpick for a few seconds to be sure it was secure.

These ANGELS are adorable.I'll make some for myself and a few sets in different colors to give as gifts. I believe they are quite versatile, and if you use your imagination they can be used for not only for magnets, but for decoration in general.
Thanks Suzie...Blanca, Puerto Rico
