Anyone who likes to do something originalwith your own hands, it is worth trying quilling. Roses, lilies, birds, animals and much more appear from ordinary strips of paper with the help of simple instruments and hands. To begin with, you will need to stock up on multi-colored paper, a stem or an awl, scissors, tweezers and an ordinary PVA glue. The paper is cut at a rate of 3 mm wide.
The easiest and most interesting are forbeginners in the technique of quilling roses. It's not for nothing that the rose is called the true queen of flowers, because the beauty and grace of this delicate flower never get bored. In order to make an excellent rose from paper, you need to take a paper tape with a width of 5 to 10 mm. You can also use a wider tape, then the rose will become even more voluminous. But in this case it is better to plant it on a wire rod, otherwise it will protrude too much on a simple surface. It is also necessary to stock up on a non-sharp rod, thanks to which the center of the rose will become open.
To start creating a rose, you need to takerod and put a paper strip on it. After this, make a couple turns around the rod and fix them with a small drop of glue - so you will create the center of the rose. Then fold the paper back at a right angle and continue to fold the rose. Do not forget to repeat the bend of the strip after each turn.
Keep the rose center carefully near the stem,while the subsequent turns must be farther away from him - this will make your rose much wider. Continue to do the turns until the paper runs out. When everything is ready, you can shoot the rose from the rod. Slightly loosen it so that it becomes lush, but do not let it go, otherwise it will spin and you'll have to start all over again.
To achieve the maximum effect when creatingflowers in the quilling technique, roses must be carefully bonded. To do this, gently press down on the center so that it slides into the flower. Fix the obtained position with glue. For better fixing, you can use a small strip of paper. Lubricate it with glue and close the center of the flower. Your gorgeous rose is ready! Do not worry if it turns out not ideal, because the skill comes with time, and soon you will be able to create your masterpieces easily and quickly.
In order to complement your work in technologyquilling, roses should be pasted on a sheet of cardboard and decorated with leaves. To do this, you need several strips of paper in different shades of green. Take just two or three strips of different colors, fasten them in the roll-folding tool and gently twist. The optimum diameter for the leaves is 15 mm. The inner strip is slightly pruned so that it does not protrude beyond the outer strip. Then lightly fix the rolls with glue.
The first roll should have a rhombus shape, and allthe rest will be in the form of a crescent. Now merge the received elements. It's best to begin with a rhombus and a pair of crescents. Gently squeeze the top to get something like a bulb. Glue another couple of crescents to the top and squeeze the top again. A beautiful leaf will turn out, which will perfectly complement our roses.
