Have you ever heard about quilling? Simply put, this paper-rolling is a way to create decorations. We will show you how to master this wonderful skill.

Steps

  1. 1 Get all the supplies you need. List at the bottom of the article. Can be used for quilling and paper, among many other materials. The quilling tool can be replaced with a simple sewing needle or, better, an awl.
  2. 2 Learn how to use quilling tools. Think about what kind of decoration you want to make. Place a tape of paper over the needle (in an awl or quilling tool). Start rolling the material in a circle, clockwise and away from you. A roll will be created.
  3. 3 Remove the roll from the needle. If you don't want a roll like this, place it on a table, hold it down and let it spread a little. Glue the end of the tape to the roll to prevent unwinding. Keep until dry.
  4. 4 Give the roll the shape you want. It all depends on what you are doing. If you are making a flower, give it the shape of a petal or leaf!
  5. 5 Glue all parts of the flower together. Use good glue to make it sticky!
  6. 6 Ready.
