-One bottle of glue (which dries clear). This item can also probably be located at home in our supply drawer. If not it can be purchased for approximately $1.00 at our local Dollar Store or at our friendly Walmart in the school supply aisle.

Step #2: Step by Step Guide:

Once you have gathered all necessary materials listed above, you are ready to begin constructing your Christmas Angel Name Tags.

1. The first step is to draw a face towards the top of your craft stick. This will be the face of your Christmas Angel Name Tag. Simply eyes, nose, mouth is enough detail. People with advanced craft skill can further decorate the facial features if they desire.

2. Take a marker of your choice and print your name or name of person name tag is for, on the bottom of the popsicle stick. Add an optional circle above the eyes with a yellow maker to create a halo, if desired.

3. The third and final step of our guide to create easy Christmas Angel Name Tags is to attach two of our small sized craft feathers to the back of the popsicle stick with a few drops of glue. These will become your angels' wings. Color choice is optional but looks best if matched to the color of marker in which the person's name was written. And finally, lay your Christmas Angel Name Tag aside and let dry for approximately 30 to 45 minutes.

    Love the photo of the angel name tag, but with all of the different cultures and religions in America I'd think the percentage of people who celebrate XMas is lower than 90%. I know a lot of schools have had to ban Christmas decorations to make it fair on the children who do not celebrate.
