Instructions:
1. Use a ragatoni noodle for the body of the noodle angel. Glue the 3/4" round head ball with hot glue to the body. Let the glue dry.
2. Next take the acini di pepe pasta (or any other tiny noodles you can find) for the hair and put the noodles in a small dish. With a toothpick, put silicone glue on the angel's ball head where you want the hair to go. Leave the front side for her face. After the glue is on, hold the body and roll the head in the acini di pepe pasta in the dish. Make sure there are enough noodles for the hair sticking to the head. Press the noodles down firmly with your fingers or the toothpick.
3. If you want to hang the noodle angel on your Christmas tree, cut about a four inch piece of heavy thread. Fold the thread in half and with the toothpick, work the ends of the thread under the small hair noodles. Let everything dry really well before continuing.
4. Use two macaroni noodles for her arms. Use two bow tie noodles for her wings and glue arms and wings on with the silicone glue. Also put the thumb tack, for her candlestick, on her arms. Glue the thumbtack onto her arms. Let all of this dry before going on.
5. Now the noodle angel is ready to be spray painted white.
6. When the paint is dry, use the wooden end of a paint brush or something that will make a small mouth and eyes. Then, with your paint brush paint the top of the thumbtack red.
7. Make a small bow out of red ribbon and glue it under her neck.
