Glue on a wooden head and cotton yarn or other thin yarn for the hair.

4
Gather the hair (in bunches) at the end and tie on bows.

5
Cut out the angel's hat from the template which is available as a separate PDF file on this page. Needle felt a flat piece from carded wool the roughly same size as the hat from the template. Place the template on top of the needle-felted carded wool and felt along the edge with the felting needle. Fold the loose carded felt over and felt it on.

6
Fold the hat and felt it together.

7
Sew rocaille seed beads onto the angel's body.
