Directions:

* Trim/bend it to look like a small halo.
* Go ahead and glue it to the back of your spoon, along with the paper doily “wings.”
* To finish off the Wooden Spoon Christmas Angel – have children draw/add embellishments to the round section of the spoon, to give the angel life. Glitter hair, rosy cheeks – the possibilities are endless! Just don’t forget those wiggle eyes so she can see!
