As you can see, the base of each angel is a salt or pepper shaker minus its shaker top. Each is filled with beads with a touch of glitter. The wings are butterfly shapes cut from old sheet music -- in this case, Christmas carols.
If you don't have any sheet music, or none that you wish to cut up, check out this link for: Printable Christmas Music Papers. Here's a sample:

I think that I have everything I need to make some of these. My salt and pepper shakers are more on the square side, but I think they will still be cute even though not as graceful a shape as these. You could make these now and have them ready for Christmas!
Awww, these are very cute!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Vicki! Wish I could take credit for the idea, but that goes to Tuula at The Thrifty Rebel. I do hope to make some of these, though, and glass salt & pepper shakers can be bought at the dollar store if you don't have any used ones around.
ReplyDeleteThose are great! I might check our dollar stores to see if I can find some taller salt/pepper shakers - and you know I will probably fill mine with glitter instead of beads!

Les, I am glad you like them!!! Yes, by all means fill with glitter -- or, you could find some really glittery beads. I think the designer mentioned that there was still some glitter left in her S & P shakers from a previous project, so there's glitter in there!
ReplyDeleteVery cute, will also have to try to find the tall ones----I only see small square fatter ones.
ReplyDeleteI love printable music sheets. So many things you can do with it.
ReplyDeleteSo true. I thought these would be just perfect for this project. I have vintage sheet music in my stash, but no Christmas sheet music.
ReplyDeleteCute! Now I need to go print out some christmas music sheets
ReplyDeleteMe too, Luludou! In fact, I think I will do that right now before I forget!
