Cut 2' piece of yarn.

Attach yarn to wood ring between tops of wings using a lark's head knot.

Thread tapestry needle with both ends of yarn and feed the needle through the wood bead.

Wrap each end of yarn around wood ring and pull tight.

Cut 12 10" pieces of yarn.

Gather together and feed through wood ring on one side of head. Pull both ends down until they are even.

Cut 12 more 10" piece of yarn and add them to other side of head. Pull down until even.

Group all of the yarn together (except for ends that go with the head). Wrap each head yarn around the bunch numerous times to create a waist and tie the ends together. Thread these two ends through a tapestry needle and insert under the wrapped waist. Trim ends.

Adjust wings so that wood ring is completely covered.

Cut 1 10" piece of yarn and attach to top of ring using a lark's head knot. Tie two ends together to form loop for hanging the ornament.

Hang ornament and trim body yarn so it is even.

You can leave the ornament as-is, block the wings using T-pins and foam, or stiffen the wings.

To stiffen the wings mix 1 part Mod Podge and 1 part water. Pin ornament down with T-pins so it is the shape you would like. Use your finger or a paint brush to add Mod Podge mixture to wings.

Let it dry for at least 1 hour and then turn over to repeat on the other side.
