Before watching this video I had no idea how quilling was really done and thought it would be hard to do, but now I'm ready to quil none stop!

[AnnatAllThingsPaper]

Thanks! The paper I'm using is standard quilling paper, 1/8 inch wide. American quilling strips are about 22-24 inches in length. The weight is slightly heavier than typical computer printer paper, but that will work fine if you want to cut a sheet into strips to use as practice paper.

very nice...could u plz tell me What kind of paper u r using?....Thanks a lot :)

[2227love]

THAT WAS JUST AMAZINNGGGG :) LUVED IT!!! you are really good at it..!!

le2ce, I ordered my favorite tool from Japan, but when I was first learning to quill, I used a cake tester - it's a fine, stiff wire. Some prefer to use corsage pins or cocktail sticks. That's a Fiskars paper trimmer you see me using in the video... it's very handy for cutting strips from a sheet of paper.

Thank you for sharing! I discovered quilling quite recently but I cannot find quilling tools here in Greece. I guess I need to order them. The tool you are using for cutting the strips is it also for quilling? How do you call it? Thanks a lot!

Nice Video!!! You've got good hands to make this type of wonderfull art!

[AnnatAllThingsPaper]

That's great mrlundgren, most children enjoy quilling. Here's an idea for teaching really young kids to quill - use bread bag or trash bag twist ties that have a wire embedded. Older students do fine with regular quilling paper or they can make giant-sized snowflakes with wide strips - a half inch or so. Regular computer paper works fine. Roll the strips on a wooden dowel.

Thanks. This is a great introduction. I am an art teacher and plan on using this.

oh ok thanks. i got a gold pen and i made the poinsettia. it turned out really great. thanks so much!

P.S. its sarah, not sophie. sophie and i share an account. she is my friend.

[AnnatAllThingsPaper]

Sophie, you can use any glue that's suitable for paper and dries clear. At the moment my favorite is Martha Stewart Crafts: All Purpose Gel Adhesive.

[SophieSarahShow]

also, 1 more question. where do you get you glue?

[SophieSarahShow]

hi i liked our video but i have 1 question. my gold paper isn't gold on the side so when it is all coiled up and on its side, all i can see from the top is white. where do you get yours? thanks!!! :) :) :) :) :) :) ;) :)

[AnnatAllThingsPaper]

@SophieSarahShow Thanks Sophie. Ah, good catch. The part where I colored the top of each domed coil with a gold gel pen was edited out to save time.
