Hi All,
I saw this at: http://www.globalserve.net/~lucir/wwwbd8/messages/94.html
This ornament is fairly easy to do, and the finished product turns out just
beautiful.
Items Needed:
1 Old CD
1 Heart shaped doily (I used a gold heart w/ decorative cut work)
1 Coffee filter (8-12 cup size, white, round Mr. Coffee type)
1 Flat wooden clothespin (NOT the spring type)
1 Decorative silk rosette
Hot Glue Gun & glue sticks OR Very Tacky Glue
Scissors
Instructions:
First glue the heart shaped doily onto the shiny side of the CD 1/4 of the 
ay
down from the top edge of the CD. This will be your angel's wings. Next, to
create her dress, flatten the coffee filter, then fold it in 1/2, and then
fold it in 1/2
again (so it is 1/4 of it's original size). Next, with the scissors, snip
off 1/4" of the
tip (for the neck/collar). Unfold the filter to 1/2 its sized, and slide
the flat wooden
clothespin under the "dress", and insert the "head" through the collar.
Place daps
of glue on her chest and back. Then adhere the dress in place to prevent
sliding
around. With the angel lying face-up , take 1 of her "wrists" (the 2 ends
of the
folded edge of the filter), and fold at her "elbow". Glue 1 wrist in place
over her
chest. Next, glue the rosette in her "hand". Then repeat with the other 
arm".
Turn the angel over, and apply glue across her shoulders and 1/2 way down her
body. Then, secure her to the CD/Heart, so that her head is over the center
of the
CD, and her "legs" hang below the lower edge of the CD by about 1". When the
glue is fully dry, attach your angel to your Xmas tree by sliding her legs
over a
sturdy branch, much like a clothesline.
