Quilling Table Top

Hi friends,

  In this post , I am sharing a unique Quilling Table Top .  For this I have used only two colours of quilling strips ( Red and Green ). I have used 5mm dimension.

• First you need to take a Kg cardboard ( desired dimension ).
• The theme I have used is  a red floral bouquet.  
• Attach two quilling strips ( red colour ) and make a coil.
• Make 5 - 6 such coils. These coils form the petals of the flower.
• Place the coils in a vertical position to form a beautiful flower. 
• Stick some pollens in the center of the flower.
• Make 5 to 6 flowers to finish the bouquet.
• Make marquise shape ( green colour ) to form the leaves.  

Once complete , frame the beautiful quilling art and gift to your loved ones. I made this wonderful  art piece to gift my husband on his birthday. I hope you all liked my creation.

Quilling Prabhavali

Hi friends,

Happy Ganesha Festival to all my friends. I am sharing how to make "Quilling Prabhavali" , which I made on the occasion of Ganesh Chaturthi. Prabhavali is a circular or semi circular structure placed around the deity usually made from noble metals seen in temple. However for the home decoration purpose one can use materials like cardboard, thermocol etc . I have used thermocol since it is lighter and gives better structural stability than cardboard.

• Make rough measurements based on the idol size like width, height and base. 
• First you need to take a thermocol sheet and draw the prabhavali parts (viz, the circular arch, pillars, base ).
• Next would be to cut the drawn pictures, here you need to be careful, in case you are using just the cutter the thermocol might break or edges might not come smooth hence it is advised to use the heat wire to cut .
• Paint the thermocol with gold color acrylic paint. Allow it to dry. 
• Make a base to make the Prabhavali stand. 
• Make different types of quilling flowers which look vibrant and beautiful there is no specific advise here but choice of colors, size  and flowers are to be based on the prabhavali dimensions.
• Stick quilling flowers ( different colors ) , leaves and branches on the thermocol .

I hope you all liked my creation. Thanks. Happy Quilling.

Quilling designer Rakhi

Hi friends,

   As Rakhi ( Rakshabandhan ) is round the corner, here is a new quilling designer rakhi which I made for my brother.

• Make a tight coil ( based on rakhi size) using green colour 5mm quilling strip.
• Use 3D outliner of different colour shades to make the designer.
• The 3D outliner gives an emboss look on the rakhi.
• Take a thin brush and draw OM in the center.
• Attach the silk thread to complete the designer Rakhi .

You can make your own designs to decorate your Rakhi. Happy Quilling.
