Cut out three types of parts from designer paper. The first two will become the outfit of an angel, the rest - wings. Place tape on the ends of each. Assemble the clippings as shown in the photo. Connect the parts of the wings to create a large bow. From plain paper, cut out an angel's head (a circle with a diameter of 1.5 cm), and from shiny paper - a halo (diameter - about 2 cm). Glue them together. You can finish drawing the angel’s eyes and rosy cheeks. TO back side attach a loop of thread to the head. Put the pieces together.

Decorate the place where the loop is attached with a ribbon bow, and use decor if desired. Pull the rest of the ribbon through the hole in the top of the toy and hang it on the tree.

- Step 2. We decorate the cones. Go over the tips of the scales of the pine cone with a brush with glue, then wrap it in gold foil and rub the area where the glue was applied. A thin layer of gold will cover the buds, giving them a glamorous look and shine. You can do it even simpler - spray the cones with a small layer of gold paint from a spray can or make strokes using gold acrylic. It all depends on what material you have at hand.

- brush;
- modeling stick or toothpick;
- old blush.
The process of making an animal consists of the following stages:
Step 1. First, check how well your buds have opened. If the cone is still dense, with unopened scales, place it in a warm place near the radiator for a couple of days so that the animals become prickly.
Step 2. Roll out a piece of beige plasticine and make a cone. Glue it to the top of the pine cone and make a face for the hedgehog. Roll two small balls, flatten them a little and stick on the ears. Make two sausages - a larger pair and a smaller pair to glue the front and back legs to the hedgehog's body. Using a sculpting stick or toothpick, draw the hedgehog’s fingers and a smile on its face. Three balls of black plasticine will become the eyes and nose of the animal.
Step 3. Apply a little blush to the brush and give the hedgehog rosy cheeks, this will make the little animal look even cuter. The craft can be mounted on a piece of cardboard, decorated with artificial moss and dried autumn leaves. For additional decoration, you can use red beads that look like wild berries, or decorate the hedgehog with an apple made of green or red plasticine.
