Quilled Flowers On Paper Mache Bowl

This Paper Mache bowl is made with my own Paper Mache recipe.
This recipe did not contain any chemical or glue. Fenugreek Seeds paste is used to keep the bowl in a stable shape. Its very earth friendly and non toxic.

Take a mould ( any plastic container of your choice what ever the size you want) apply a plastic sheet or foil around the bowl.
On top of the palstic sheet apply the paper mache paste 1/2 inch depth. make sure the applied paper mache is equal on all the parts of the mould.
Place the mould in shadow, where you get more air flow .Make sure the side where the paper mache applied is up.

After drying in a shadow 4 to 5 days the paper mache bowl will detach from the mould.
remove the pastic warp carefully and keep it in same place for 1 day.
Before going for any decoration on it make sure it dried completely.

After it dried had a coat of white color, then 1 coat of varnish. Dried it in shadow for 2 days.
After it dries very well , Painted outside with metallic red acrylic color.

Then Glued Quilled Flowers and leaves.

Quilling PhotoFrame : Two birds with flower basket

I am back after a long time with a cute Quilling frame.


I made this frame for one of my friend’s wedding anniversary gift. In this frame the 2 birds flying with a flower basket as a symbol of life journey.



I used 3 m.m wide strips for this quilling frame work preparation. In making quilling flowers and leaves basic shapes like marquee and triangle are used. For making basket and handle used paper weaving technique. I’ve used different colors of paper strips to make it more color full. For making the basket handle I used the same weaving technique how we plate our hair.

Quilled Frame with Flowers and Dragonfly


I gifted this Quilled frame to my friends for their new home decoration.

I have used “Alternate Side Looping” Technique in this Quilled Frame art. This is a type of husking technique where we will not use any pins, instead we hold the paper in hand. White flower and some leafs are made with this technique.

The remaining flowers and leaves in this Quilled frame are made with basic quilled shapes like marquis and benthalf circle shapes.


I have included a dragonfly with basic quilled shapes in this Quilled Frame art.



I've used Ikea shadowbox  size 9'X9' for framing this quilled art.

Quilled Flower Basket

In the process of learning different quilling shapes and techniques I made good amount of different types of flowers and leaves.
I want to use all of them in one place rather through them here and there, this flower basket idea is the outcome :)

For the basket I used 1/8'' (3 m.m) width strips. Basket was made using waving technique which I learnt form  calire choi book "The Art of Quilling". Yellow, Blue and Pink Corn Flowers are made by following the instruction of claire choi blogLeaves are mostly made using husking technique. To arrange all the flowers and basket white card stock is used. To give the flowers a 3 dimensional appearance loose coils are used in the bottom of the flowers while glueing. 


Size of finished art work is 6 1/2"x8 1/2" (16x22 c.m).

Birthday Card : Quilled Fringed Flowers

I designed this quilled birth day card for one of my friend's birthday.
This card was made after so many color combinations.





I’ve used 90 degree fringing tool to make fringed flowers,  embosing tool to make veins on leaves (see last paragraph about how to make leaves). I made a spring, arranged in oval shape to give the card good appearance. It gave good space to write wishes / greetings.

I used to have a hard time making fringed flowers with scissor earlier. After I started using fringe tool, it took 10 min to fringe about 20 strips.

How to make leaves ? 
Take 1 inch wide cardstock. Fold it in middle, draw half leaf shape and cut it to get symmetric leaf. We can touch it up at edges to get attractive, natural leaf shape. I’ve used embossing tool to draw veins.


I made the cover with flower and springs for this card.



Quilled Birthday Card


I used tri-fold card with oval opening. 

The Quilled butterflies in this card is an idea of Claire Sun-ok Choi. She is a great quiller. I learnt so many techniques by visiting her blog.
It took nearly 3 hr to me for design and arrange all things in place.

Quilled Frame Work




I made this quilled frame art by reading Claire Sun-ok Choi book "The Art of Paper Quilling". I bought the book in Amazon. It is a good book for learners.

It looks like a small lily bush. All the White flowers are made with marquise shapes. For the marquise shape I have used 3m.m white strips. For the center of the flower I used yellow 1.5m.m strips (I made it by cutting 3 m.m yellow strip in to half by length-wise).

For quilled flower arrangements insects added a new look. I have added a blue butterfly made with 2 bunny ears and 2 teardrops.

Total size of the art work is 18.5x13.5 c.m.
