What you need:

• Paper Plates
• Pen or pencil
• Utility Knife
• Decorative Hole Punches (optional if you would like to style it your own way)

Perfect for a children’s table, these demure angels use 6-inch plain white paper plates.

Trace a paper angel shape onto a plate with a fluted edge, and cut out with a utility knife. The two cuts for the wings are different, one made from inside out, the other from outside in. Embellish the edge of the plate with one or two decorative hole punches.

With the angel facing you, shape her skirt into a circle then slide the outside cut over the inside one to make wings. Curl some paper around a narrow rod, such as a skewer, and make a name card. Secure it in her hands with a dab from a glue stick.

And there you have a wonderful Paper Plate Angel.
