I am looking for a simple angel pin I can make for people for Christmas. I am a beginner when it comes to jewelry making and would appreciate any help I can get.

My mother and my grandmother used to make angel pins that they would sell at craft shows that they had had made that were beaded. I can't remember exactly how they made them, but I just pictured them as I was reading your discussion. I'll have to call my mom and see if she has any of them still sitting around that I could send you a picture of and directions if it comes that you might be interested in those angels.

If you can do that for me I would appreciate it. I am trying so hard to get my crafts online. I am still trying to figure out etsy. I already make soap, bath salts, dough ornaments and mosaic ornaments. I hope to make a few extra buks for the Christmas season.

Hi, I know you said jewelry, but was wondering what materials you planned to use. That is to say, do you plan to crochet the angel? If so you could crochet a safety pin in to the angel and voila instant angel pin... Sorry just trying to help :D

THank you for your help. I have been looking into crochetting. I just hope I have the patience for it. I have seen many angel pins with safety pins and realized that it looks faily easy.

Sometimes finding patterns and such is not always the easiest, but what I have found is by doing like a Search in here putting the item you are wanting information for, you can often find like patterns you might be interested in, or other helpful stuff you might want to bookmark, and possibly earn a little bit extra by doing the research on here as well.

you could visit your local library and look at the craft books but you didnt mention what you wanted to make it out of. beads? crocheting?
