Three or More Thursday #8

I have an angel theme again for Three or More Thursday. But first I want to thank Tam at The Gypsy Corner for hosting Three or More Thursday for us. If you haven't tried it yet, come join the fun. Some of you will recognize the first two angels. The one on the left I just got for Christmas from one of my hubby's brothers (he has 6). I just love this angel. I showed off this angel on my main blog recently. I am planning on keeping it out all year. I can't stand the thought of putting away all year when I just got it. The next angel is from the same brother. I featured it on a Blue Monday when I first started doing Blue Monday. And the third one I made this one. This is the angel that made me decide to do this post on this blog rather than the other one.
Here is another view of the blue angel. I have had this one for several years now. A lot actually. Probably close to 15 years. It has held up beautifully.
Next is two views of my newest angel. I just love my new angel. Sigh.....
Now for the angel I made. In 1986 I took a tole painting class. I believe this was one of the projects we did in that class. I have always loved this angel. Goes with the theme of the blue of the other two angels. A closer front view.
A side view. You can see the layers in this view.

The other side view.
Thank you for visiting us at Three or More Thursday. Come and join the fun with three or more somethings you may have in your home or outside.
In the meantime, Happy New Year!

Three or More Thursday #7-B

Thank you to Tam at the The Gypsy Corner for hosting Three or More Thursdays for us. When what I want to share is made my me or someone else I like to post it on my craft blog. So as some of you will have noticed by now, I post things on both blogs sometimes for special things. Here is more angels, but these are handmade angels. My husband's sister made these for us one year. It was originally one for each of us when she made them. I don't remember whose is whose anymore. I keep them out all year usually and I hope my kids don't mind if I keep these little precious angels together.
These angels are crocheted with crochet cotton. And underneath are clothespins. The tops of those clothespins make perfect little heads. You will notice each one is a different color. I think the purply pink is my favorite. My daughter would probably say that one is hers. :-)

If you look closely, the pattern on each skirt is different. I did not realize that until I was taking the pictures. Silly me to not notice the patterns for all these years, after all I do know how to crochet. I should have seen that each one was different. Besides the color that is. Duh!

I love these little angels. I can never decide on their permanent home. I keep moving them around. That is okay, maybe I am being guided as where I need them to watch over me.

Happy Three or More Thursday and Happy Holidays to everyone.
