Step-by-step guide

1) Decide how many angels you would like to use and enlarge the template (pictured below) to fit an A4 sheet of paper, or to your chosen size. Cut out in strong card.

2) Carefully draw around the card template on to white paper and cut out the angel shapes.

3) Attach a tiny tab of doublesided tape at each corner of each cutout and press carefully in place on the inside of your window.
