Creating repurposed angels is always a fun part of Christmas for me, and they can be made out of so many things like this book angel that I made a few years ago.

Like these thrifted silk tassels that I found in a small bag of eight for five dollars. Even thought I saw their future as angels right away, the price was a little steep for this thrifty gal. So I didn’t buy them the first time I saw them.

I told myself that if they were still there the next weekend then I was meant to buy them.

So the next weekend I went back to the same thrift store and… guess what?

They were still there. Hallelujah!

I’m only using three for this project, so I’ll keep the other five for a someday future project.

Including the 4 inch hanger, the tassels are about 9 Inches long.

Creating wings for the tassel angel ornaments

The first thing my angels need was wings. Christmas sheet music is always a good idea for this, like with these salt & pepper angels.

For these wings I’m folding the sheet music, accordion-style.

I tied them in the middle with jute twine.

Before I add the wings to the angels they need to be dressed up a bit.

Dressing up the tassel angel ornaments

This is a great way to use up some bits and pieces of whatever ribbons and lace that you have.

I just glued them on with a couple dabs of hot glue.

Then I added some pretty pink millinery flowers.

Then the wings get glued on the back.

Easy peasy,

Hanging the DIY repurposed tassel angels

When it comes to making angels a halo is a must.

So a little pink beading is all that was needed.

Again, it just took a couple dabs of hot glue.

I’m a pink-loving girl, but these repurposed tassel angels could easily be customized to match any Christmas tree colors and style.

They would also be super cute dressing up a gift.

These angel ornaments were so easy to create and only took about 30 minutes.

They’ll look great with my cream horn angel ornaments.

I hope this project has inspired you to create some quick and easy angel ornaments.
