Silk Thread Bangles

After Quilling the next thing I ventured into was making Silk Thread Bangles. As ever never attended any classes learnt it all by myself and it fascinated me a lot. Making these bangles was full of fun. I initially tried with the embroidery thread that I had at home. Then one of my friend suggested that I try it with silk thread bangles and so I purchased an array of threads from one of my friend who is an online supplier. With the threads she sent me I started trying making silk thread bangles and my first try was making a bangle in yellow with red flower stones.

Miniature quilled flower pots

Miniature flower pots or plants are always a beautiful decorative items. The pots are made using brown colour 10mm strips. I used those pots to make pots. 

Roses - can never stop admiring them

For a very long time, whenever my friends made roses out of ribbons, satin ribbons or laces, I keep pondering, how they are doing it and I have felt that I am not going to learn it at all. But when I started quilling on searching the net, I came across few roses and I started searching for tutorials and got them too. And then trial and error started and at last I mastered making roses. My first set of roses made was used to make flower boquet. When I showed my roses to my friend, she ordered a set for her cutie pie daughter. But the beauty of it was so amazing that she said she herself wore it to office one day.

Black is my favourite colour says all.

One of my friends asked me to make ear rings and pendants according to her dress colours. She messaged me her dress and I was able to match the designs according to the colour. Along with them she also ordered a black set. Black sets are definitely viral. Any one who sees the sample go crazy over that. I made almost 6 to 8 pairs of jhumkas in black alone for different people.

Pinky with pearls

When I was still a novice in quilling, I tried a set in quilling a simple set. I painted the pendant with gold 3d cone and the stud with 3d cone dots. Ofcourse everything is a learning step and only after the cone work dried I understood that the lines have become thick. Should I need more practice or should there be a even smaller hole was my thought. And I did found out over the period of my journey that 3d outliner could be used on quilled jhumkas too but I need to use a thin 0 or 00 or 000 brush to paint on them. But again and still I have a doubt how to use a 3d outliner with brush. I hope some of my artist friends answer me this.

The speciality of this set is I used 1 mm punch to pierce a small hole in the tightly quilled coil to insert a pearl dangler.

Peacock in Quilling

Our National Bird - Peacock

Impressed by another person's creation, I had already made a peacock key chain. I wanted to try out a big hanging, but felt that it will not be that suitable to wear it. So added a base to it and gifted it to be placed in the cars. Can be made on order again. Cost of a single piece is Rs. 80. Get 2 for Rs. 150
