INSTRUCTIONS

Take a glove used for gardening, and first dye it in coffee to get an old fashioned look. You'll need to cut off the Pinky finger, and save it. (It will become the other arm.)
Turn the glove so the big opening is at the top.
Start stuffing the fingers with cotton.
You'll need to add those craft beads (the small clear kind) to give her more weight at the bottom, so she can sit.

You'll need to make a head out of fabric, and draw a cute face on it with a marker. You can use eye shadow to make her cheeks rosy.
Stuff the head.
Attach the head to the big opening of the glove, with a glue gun. Let it dry.
Add hair to head.

You will also need to make wings out of fabric. Blue works really nicely.

For pants, you can you small strips of fabric, that look like jeans.

You can add a wooden heart to the thumb. Then attach the pinky finger that you have been saving. (Stuff it first). Glue it in place.
Add a yellow wooden star to the right arm.

Then you'll need to make it an angel, by Topping the hair with a halo.
Be sure to place the halo in the center, or else she has been compromised. *S*
