Christmas Corn Husk Angel

I personally have my favorite Christmas ornament and these are the angel that was made of corn hulls and shells that was given to my by my mother a long long time ago. I was 18 years old at that time.

My mom made this angel that she gave to me when she was pregnant with my younger brother. The corn husks she got it from her garden. She let it air dry and put it in the garage, then she got small shells from my younger sister. She loves collecting shells and any kind of stones that she might think its pretty.

She paint the corn hulls, the shells, and glued it together. It was so pretty.

My mom is so great when it comes to crafting.

During Christmas, she gave it to me as a Christmas gift and my birthday gift because my birthday falls on last week of December.

I always put this on the Christmas tree during Christmas holiday.

I will always treasure this and take good care of this and then i will give this to my kids.

This Corn Husk Angel will become an heirloom to our family... Handed down from generation to generation, and the memory lives on.
