angels". Kristina brought in one she had made during the holidays.

a length of twine approximately 14", fold in half and loop through
the wooden ball and the top of the angel, pushing it into the scallop
shell. Make a knot in the end that went through the shell and knot the
other end for hanging purposes.

Using the sparkle paint

their entire shell! Let dry thoroughly before the ornament is used.
