Angel Charm
Let the angels be with you. This cute and
unique blue angel can be yours in only a few
easy steps. All you need are some beads, a
pin and some angel wings. This project
comes from Angie Beauchamp of the Charm
Factory. Making your own angel charms is
fun and easy to do for yourself or a great
gift. You can use round beads of your choice
in a variety of colors. This angel utilizes a
sterling silver angel wings bead and blue
cat’s eye beads for color.
Steps:
1. Slide the 6mm round bead onto the
head pin to make the body.
2. Slide the angel wings bead on next.
3. Then put the 4mm round bead on to
make the head.
4. Next the 4mm Bali style flat flower
bead goes on to make the halo.
5. Take the round nose pliers and grab
the head pin right above the halo.
Wrap the pin around the pliers to
make a circle.
6. Hold the circle you just made with
flat or needle nose pliers. With your
hand, wrap the pin around the circle
three times. This will keep the beads
tight together.
7. Cut off the excess pin length with the
needle nose pliers.
8. Add a jump ring or spring ring to
attach your charm to a bracelet, other
jewelry, etc.
