Tissue Angels
What's up with angels? These whimsical tissue angels make perfect gifts! Use them to decorate packages, trees, or a holiday table.
1. What do you think angels look like? Do they have lovely soft wings? Wear a golden crown? Have long hair? Here's how to decorate a recycled tissue box with Tissue Angels.
2. Cover your art area with newspaper. Put a small amount of water in a paper cup. Add drops of one color of Crayola® Washable Watercolors. To make the angel's robe, dip a tissue in it. Gently open the tissue. Lay flat to dry on paper towels. Repeat with five more tissues in colors of your choice for each angel.
3. Lay two or three tissues on top of each other. Hold them together in the middle to form the angel's robe. Tie with yarn or a twist tie. Lay two tissues on top of each other. Gather them together like a bow tie. Tie in the middle with yarn to make wings.
4. Roll a plain tissue into a tight ball. Cover it with a painted tissue for the angel's head. Secure with yarn. Fasten head to the front of the wings with yarn. With Crayola Scissors, trim the bottom if you wish. Fasten the skirt to the back of the angel.
5. Decorate your Tissue Angel with a Crayola Classic Fine Line Marker.
6. Glue angel on a recycled tissue box with Crayola School Glue. Dry.
Adult supervision is required for any arts & crafts project.
Crayola Washable Paints—Not for use as body/face paint.
Scissors—ATTENTION: The cutting edges of scissors are sharp and care should be taken whenever cutting or handling. Blunt-tip scissors should be used only by children 4 years and older. Pointed-tip scissors should be used only by children 6 years and older.
String-Like Materials—Includes string, raffia, lacing, yarn, ribbon, and other similar material. Children 3 years and younger should not be given any string-like material that is longer than 12 inches. Close adult supervision is essential whenever children use string-like material. When crafts are to be worn around the necks of children 8 years and younger, attach the ends of the “string-like material” with clear adhesive tape, which allows easy release of the bond if the craft becomes entangled or caught on equipment. For children older than 8 years, the ends of the “string-like material” may be tied and knotted.
