"This Poinsettia Angel is very easy to make. I save abandon dolls and make fairies with faux flower petals but since its Christmas I decided to make this one an Angel. When I make these, I transform the doll by adhering the petals directly to them and turning them into the flower versus dressing them in a flower. This Angel was made with gold poinsettia faux flowers from the dollar store and a glue gun."
