Rustic Angel DIY – From Craft Room Chaos to Cozy Charm

 I was just trying to clean up the mess — honestly. That pile of jute and rope? It was supposed to be trash or tidy up. But one look at that wooden bead, and my brain whispered, “Angel.” So this little twine angel came together when I was trying to cleanup my pile of tangled mess

Next thing I knew, I had the hot glue gun in one hand, a mess on the table, and an idea coming to life. 👼

She didn’t start pretty — but by the end, this little rustic angel had completely stolen my heart.
