In this tutorial we provide step by step instructions on how to make a Magazine Christmas Angel using MAGAZINES! This is a perfect Christmas craft for kids to do with family or as a girl scout troupe. Display it as a Table Centerpiece or on a shelf at home. Heck...even give one to Mom or Grandma!

P.S. My mom remembers doing this when she was a kid, so it's our throwback craft ;-)
