Quilled Jewellery - Part 3

Hello!

It's pendant and hair accessory time! I made a couple of items for my little niece, R, who loved them and kindly posed for me wearing them. The purple flower in her hair is made using the combing technique, and the red flower she is wearing as a pendant is a shaded Malaysian flower. Doesn't she look adorable? :)

A couple of more flowers that can be worn as pendants or hair accessories. The pink one is inspired by the beautiful flower 'Sadafuli', or 'Vinca Rosea' that is in abundant bloom around my house. The yellow one is the same as the one R is wearing as a pendant, just in a different color.

PEN001, PEN002 - Malaysian Flower, Vinca

Here is a close-up of the purple flower R is wearing in the first picture, along with a couple of other pendants. The center one is also made using the combing technique, using a gradation of colors. I forget the name of the method used to make the 'Twisted Flower', will upload a tutorial and the name as soon as I remember it!

Quilled Fan

Hello!

I had seen this beautiful design on a website, unfortunately I do not remember which website. The creator had made a quilled fan, which I have tried to reproduce here. Please let me know if someone comes across the original work, I would love to link it through the post.

The fan can be framed, or put up as is as wall decor.

This design turned out to be much more tedious that I had thought it would be, since all the flowers, petals and curves had to be the same size. Gluing the curves was also a challenge, but I am happy at the final product :) Loved the idea of a quilled fan!

Cheers!

Tent Cards

Hello!

Tent card is a standing card, with a window in the center to showcase a trinket. Found this tutorial about making tent cards, and with some modifications made my own tent card displaying a quilled cactus pot.

Quilled Figurines

Hello!

Quilling is amazing! The more stuff I try out, the more I fall in love with this beautiful art. I was fascinated with  3D quilling, and tried my hand at it with this small gift set.

Featuring a small pot and a new butterfly!!

FG001 - Pot and Butterfly

The pot is made of multi-colored strips, and grows beautiful red and orange flowers and a few blades of grass, while the butterfly watches on! Both items stand upright on their own. A perfect gift item for children and adults alike!

Cheers!

Lettering

Hello!

After seeing some wonderful examples of quilled lettering online, I wanted to try my hand at it too. Not an easy task, it required quite some patience, and skill with the glue. Here is the finished product - a 'Welcome' sign for the front door.

The lettering is free-hand, and is filled using the beehiving technique.

LET001 - Welcome

Cannot wait to put it up on the door!

Cheers!
