Making Angels

Angel is literally making new friends.

When I signed up for Bead & Button workshops there was a reverse engineering option but due to lack of registration the workshop was dropped.

Instead, Brenda Schweder offered to help me reverse engineer my angel ornaments remotely, and I sent one in.

Soon I received an email with the required Now That’s A Jig! Parts, and I ordered the pegs to supplement my StartrKit.

I got my very own angel design template in the mail, and decided to test the design prior to working on a commission. Getting the violin clef right took some effort after being out of practice for 6 months.

Then I set about picking out pink paper for the memorial angels. I traced a musical score onto the handmade paper.

Then I added a sparkle bead.

I picked out outfits for the other angels and waxed them up.

The delicate hearts are so sweet.

Soon they were all dressed and cooling off.

You’ll see them at the upcoming Main-Dempster Sidewalk Sale.

I’l be taking up See Jane Sparkle’s Sidewalk between 10 and 4 July 19-31 with new wares.

Turquoise Frosty got a new outfit too, in hopes of it making him more attractive at the holiday fairs.

Come October I’ll be jigging up a whole collection for the holiday season! Any color requests?
