Steemart - The Art of Quilling Paper - Steemit logo

 



Quilling is the art of rolling small strips of paper into coils and arranging them to form different shapes.
Quilling first became popular in Europe in the 18th century.





Supplies:
A4 coloured cardboard (I used 160g/m2) blue, light blue, white
Scissors
Pencil, eraser
Glue
Slotted tool to make the curling coils(I used a screwdriver)

 





First step was to draw the Steemit logo on a piece of paper. Using 3 strips of paper I made the logo shapes and glued them on paper.

The next step was to cut 1cm wide 21cm long paper strips from the A4 (you can buy ready cut strips).

I rolled the paper strips into circles or loose circles, gluing the end. Then I used the loose circles to make other shapes: teardrop, curved teardrop, marquise, curved marquise, triangle, square and heart.







I hope you enjoyed this example of Quilling Art.
