I used a 12" square of fabric, a1" styrofoam ball and I used a small piece of batting to soften the foam

wrap fabric around ball and tie with string / embroidery thread

ruffle the lace and tulle on the wire and wrap around the neck

scrunch up the bottom of the tulle and the white fabric only and cut it off even with the lace

make a double bow out of wired ribbon, and using the floral wire, tie the "wings" on

final steps are to tie on the hanger with the same floral wire, I used fishing line but you can use ribbon also, once you have added your hanger you are now ready to cut off the excess floral wire

Once you've done this cut a pipe cleaner and form it into a circle and hot glue to the back of the angels head for the halo
BEAUTIFUL! I have to try that later, much later.
