Angel Costume
- Start with a white dress. You can use any white dress, white robe or white skirt and top to create the angel costume. You can also use a white pillowcase for the angel costume by cutting a hole for the head and two holes in the sides for the arms to go through. If you are wearing a robe or a pillowcase, try wearing a gold or white belt around the waist.
- Make the wings for the angel costume. To create the wings, draw the outline of wings on poster board and cut the wings out. You can decorate the wings however you wish. You may wish to brush them with glue and sprinkle them with silver or white glitter, or glue white feathers all over the back of the wings.
- Use a hole puncher to punch four holes in the wings. The holes should be in the shape of a square and near the center of the wings where the arms are going to be.
- Thread two different pieces of elastic through the holes in the poster board and tie each one in a knot. This will give you something to stick your arms through and hold the wings on you.
- Make a halo. You can make a halo by forming a piece of craft wire into a circle that will fit on top of your head. Decorate the halo and make it sparkle by wrapping it with silver or gold star garland.
