Aleene's Wood Angel Supplies

Make sure wood pieces are chopped to desired size. Pieces can be rough, as shown here, or rounded. It's totally your preference! Once you have your wood pieces, drill a hole the size of your wood pegs/sticks in the top center. This is where you will place the angel's head.
