Speaking Of Crafts

Paper quilling, also referred to as paper filigree, is the art of rolling strips of paper around a particular tool into coils and then shaping or pinching into various forms. These paper coils are then combined to create decorative designs.

A little research and our imaginations can produce an abundance of paper quilling ideas. The designs created may be used to embellish greeting cards, gift cards, picture frames, scrapbook covers and pages, boxes, candles, and a host of other items which might need a creative touch. The end result is extremely striking, yet delicate. A gift of a quilled item would certainly be loved and appreciated.
