I have a soft spot for angel crafts at Christmas. Maybe it’s because they’re something I remember enjoying making as a child so it holds sentimental value.
There is one thing that gets to me though – the blonde-haired, blue-eyed angel stereotype. So often that blonde hair is depicted as golden curls!
If God created all different kinds of people, surely there are all different kinds of angels in Heaven. I wanted kids to be able to make a paper angel who looks like them, so this printable set has a range of options.
Eight different looks (four boys and four girls) is still pretty limited, BUT I’ve also provided the designs in black and white line art so you can colour them any way you like, making the possibilities endless.
