Dip angel up to her neck into fabric stiffener. cover styrofoam with plasic
wrap. Place angel's skirt over cone to shape skirt. Stiff bodice and wings
with plastic wrap to help keep it's shape while drying. Make sure to completely
saturate the whole angel except for head. Since the head is stuffed, you
do not need to stiffen it. Allow the angel to dry overnight. When completely
dry, attach gold thread to top of head to form a loop. This is the hanger.�
