1. 1

   Cut a piece of felt about 7.75" wide by 4.5" deep in a U shape (width of the felt is about 1.5").

   
   
2. 2
   

   Stitch ends of ribbon onto right side of felt, either by hand or by machine.

   
   
3. 3
   

   Mark placement of buttons.

   
   
4. 4
   

   Cut iron-on rhinestone piece to shape and note placement of buttons.

   
   
5. 5
   

   Remove the rhinestones from where the button areas.

   
   
6. 6
   

   Iron on front. Use scraps of iron-on rhinestone piece and add more rhinestones to the felt until you have used everything up.

   
   
7. 7
   

   Sew on buttons.

   
   
8. 8
   

   Embellish remaining spaces on the felt with more stick-on pearls (by anchoring in felt glue), sequins, and by sewing on pearls until the whole neckpiece is covered. (angel8.jpg)

   
   
9. 9
   

   (Tip: I outlined the buttons in tiny pearls first, then filled in the middle. The closer together your embellishments are - and the more of them you add - the more expensive and glamorous the piece looks. Barney's, here you come!)

   
   
10. 10
    

    Cut chiffon ribbon in half, tie around neck, and add a bit of glam to any angelic getup.
