Spring angel

I got this little wooden angel as a Christmas present from mom's man. When I first saw it, I knew this cutie deserves some special clothing. I decided to use napkin-decoupage, but instead of typical Christmas motifs, I wanted to decorate it with flowers. As the angel measures only about 10 cm, my first challenge was finding motifs that would look good on the little figure and fit to my idea of angels.
In the end, I used some napkins my sister brought from the Netherlands last year. The small roses and forget-me-not's are just the right kind, and make a lovely spring angel.
A few beads on the string, and voilà
