So in the Bible, angels are described in a wide variety of ways. One description is included in the King James translation of Ezekiel:
Ezekiel 1:16 The appearance of the wheels and their work was like unto the colour of a beryl: and they four had one likeness: and their appearance and their work was as it were a wheel in the middle of a wheel.
Ezekiel 1:18 As for their rings, they were so high that they were dreadful; and their rings were full of eyes round about them four.
I saw someone on Twitter post a photo of their diy angel tree topper. It was a gold ball, covered in beautiful, realistic eyes. I loved the idea and wanted to make my own.

My first attempt stayed pretty close to the version I’d seen on Twitter.

But it didn’t look like the illustrations I’d seen that were based on the descriptions in the Bible. So I wanted to try again.

I was much happier with this version, and decided to put it on top of the small Christmas tree we have next to the television in our room.
