Halo

Ch 18 and Sl st in furthest ch from hook to form a ring.

Fasten off leaving a long enough tail to stitch halo to head, weave in ends.

Finishing

Stitch halo to angel’s head. Make a cone out of wax paper (or wrap wax paper around anything cone shaped you might have) and place angel on it, use a pin (I find a T pin works best), to hold the halo above the head, and block with fabric stiffener.
