PAPER QUILLINGS
Basics of Quilling What you will make: Quilling is the art of rolling narrow strips of paper into coils or scrolls, and arranging them to form elegant filigree. In this project, you'll learn how to use a toothpick to roll coils and scrolls, then pinch, shape, and arrange them into decorative patterns. White or colored paper can be used—even pieces of brightly colored junk mail work well. Quilling can be done with simple tools and supplies, and almost anyone will get beautiful results. Save those scraps of paper and have some fun quilling! Extras: Included at the end of this project are quilling project sheets for snowflakes, flowers and fun creatures, along with a brief note about the origins of the art of quilling.
