Flying Angel Hanging Ornament Needle Felting Kit by Charivna Mit V-29C

Felt the Flying Angel Hanging Ornament, a needle felting kit by Charivna Mit: a flying angel in a blue dress with white felt wings and a tall purple cap, on a gold hanging thread.

Hanging a small angel at the window or on the tree is an old tradition for keeping a home protected, and a soft wool angel is a gentle way to keep it.

Why this kit: needle felting needs no sewing and no counting, only wool and a barbed needle, and Charivna Mit sorts the wool by color and adds a color scheme so you always know which shade goes where. With just 3 wool colors it is a quick, forgiving project for a first try.

Kit includes: 3 colors of Corriedale wool, white felt for the wings, sand-colored beads, gold lurex thread, wire, 2 felting needles, a color pattern and an instruction chart. Made in Ukraine. Not included: a foam felting pad to work on and small scissors for trimming stray fibers.

How to felt it: pull off small tufts of wool, roll them loosely and jab them with the felting needle, turning the shape as you go so it firms up evenly. Build the body first, then the colored details and the face, following the color scheme. Then add the bead details and the wire parts as the instructions show. Attach the hanging thread last. Work on a foam pad and store the needles safely after use.

Finished size: about 6×11 cm (2.4×4.3 in). Hang it at a window, on a shelf bracket or a nursery mobile, or give it as a small homemade gift for family, friends and angel collectors. Recommended for ages 14 and up; the felting needles are very sharp, so keep them away from young children.
