DIY Christmas Clothespin Angel Ornaments 

Then paint the bottom {from spring to the end} in white and then the top in light pink since it’s going to be the head of the angel.

Painting the clothespin fro the angel body

Let them dry for 30 minutes

Then spread white glue or mod podge in the white area and add glitter all over and let it dry for a few minutes {30 minutes is best}. Looks so cute!

Sprinkling some glitter on the white paint of the clothespin

While it dries, create bows with your satin ribbon.

Make them as big as you want the wings or the Angel to be.

Let the tails long too and then cut as needed.

The trick here is to make the first bow and adjust it until you like how it looks with the clothespin size.

Once you are fine then cut the excess of ribbon and then use that as a base to cut the strips for the rest.

Once the clothespins are dry, let’s play with the angel’s head. Paint the faces with your markers.

I love making them with eyes closed and open mouths like they are singing… Wink!

Don’t worry if you feel like you are not very good at drawing, you can do this by just making basic shapes like circles, half-circles, or just sticks. We are not seeking perfection, just having fun!

If you feel like it, you could even paint the hair and add more details. I’m just sticking with the basics.

Then cut a piece of pipe wire. In my case was about half of the whole piece. But since it may vary, just do some trial and error with the size first.

Start placing the middle of the pipe cleaner in the front of the angel where you see the metal parts. Then go around the back of the clothespin, twist it and come back to the front.

Now you have the belt and the arms.

Shape the arms like he’s praying. I did it folding both ends.

Next, cut another piece of pipe cleaner for the halo of about 2 inches. Fold about 2/3s 90 degrees.

Then using a marker big enough to make a circle with the longest part create small loops like shown below:

With the hot glue tool, glue it to the back of the angel.

Finally, glue the ribbon to the back of the Angel making sure it covers all the uglies.

And last but not least glue a piece of gold twine so you can hang it!

There you go!!! You have made a really cute Angel Christmas ornament for your Christmas tree!!!

Now it’s time to make some more cute little angels!
