Christmas Story Ornaments: Angels

Little Shepherd, DVD
By Vision Video

Wolves have been seen in the fields around Bethlehem, and the shepherds are nervous. When angels suddenly appear with glorious news, everyone rushes to town to see if it's true! But Joel and his lamb fall behind---left alone to face great danger. A message of hope for the whole family! English, Spanish, French, German, and Chinese language tracks. 25 minutes. Closed-captioned.

The first part of our Christmas story
ornaments begin with the angel
bringing Mary the good news of a
coming savior!

Step 1
Cut the leaves off of your fake
poinsetta.

Step 2
Choose your ornament and arrange it
so that it is straight up like in the photo.

Step 3
Choose your largest leaves and glue
them as shown in the photo. The
ornament is still straight up.

Step 4
Next glue your medium leaves,
layering them over the top of the
larger ones.

Step 5
Finally glue the smallest leaves near
the bottom, again layering them over
the top of the medium sized ones.

Step 6
Roll your modeling clay into a ball for
the angels head. You can pinch out a
nose shape if you like too.

All Done!
You can affix your bible verse to
the back of the angel, or punch a
hole in it and thread it with the
same ribbon as the ornament.
