Double coloured garland

After learning the boondongling technique, which calls for no quilling tools, I tried making garlands. The first garland I tried was single colour but after I gained confidence I made a double coloured garland which I used to decorate the Ganesha during Navarathri.

Quilled Key Chain

#Project -366, Day2

After learning the weaving technique, I have been making only thorans and garlands using it. Wanted to make something small and tried a different kind of key chain, which can also be used as a hip chain. As of now I have attached the key ring to it and have not attached any jingles. Soon will add them too and post a picture in this same post. So keep watching for it.

This is what I made for Day 2

Pink Garland with Roses

#Project366, Day - 1

The technique of boondongling in quilling is something different and unique. It doesnot need any tools to make it. The knowledge of proper weaving technique is all that is needed. One can make any colour combinations and this can be made in strips of any size. The bigger the size of the strip, the garland becomes bigger. 2 or 3 mm strips can be used as neck wear. They can also be converted to danglers. In the coming days will post one such set.

Here is the garland made of pink with 3 pink roses in the middle covered with glitter glue to give shiny effect in the night light is made for one of the big pictures that hang in the walls of my parent's home. Hope you all like it just the way I like it too. The garland and the roses are made of 15mm strips.

Video of the same will follow soon.
