How to do quilling. Quilling is a master class. Quilling schemes

Products from twisted paper strips are called quilling or paper filigree. This art can master even the oldest preschooler. Now on the Internet you can find a lot of schemes for creating flowers, landscapes, postcards, ornaments, paintings, topiares, hand-made articles, panels and other products in this technique. How to make quilling novice masters - consider in the article.

What will be needed for the paper roll?

In a special store you can buy paper, scissors, a tool for paper filigree, tweezers, roll molds, PVA glue, awl. Quilling paper in comparison with color has 3 positive moments:

• Required density, holding the shape of parts;
• Ready-made strips from 1 mm to 3 cm;
• High-quality painting even on side sections.

Special paper saves time, but strips for crafts can be made from two-color office paper with a metal ruler and a cutter.

The tool is a kind of awl with a tip in the form of a fork. It can be made from the handy material:

• From the toothpick cut off the sharp end and cut in the middle, making a kind of fork;
• On the analogy described above, make an incision in the rod of a conventional handle;
• Stick the needle with the point in the tree or the cork, and the eye pinch.

Scissors take sharp with straight ends. A ruler with circles of different diameters can be used as a form for rolls. If you choose volumetric quilling, then you will need an improvised material (beads, beads, wire, skewers, cardboard, frames, scallop, pin, etc.). With the toolkit figured out, now we'll study the fundamentals of paper firing.

Quilling: master class of basic elements

In the slot of the instrument, insert a strip and begin to twist it into a spiral, which is called a roll. It is from this element that we form certain forms under a certain pressure:

• A tight roll is a spiral tightly twisted, and the end of the strip is glued to the base.
• A free roll is a spiral with an endless end. Such a roll is placed in the shape of a certain circle so that the paper "blossoms". Then it is taken with tweezers and the tip is glued to the base of the spiral.
• A drop is a free roll that is pressed against one edge, with the middle of the circle not touched.
• A curved drop is a drop with a slightly curved base.
• A triangle is a drop in which the oval part is flattened and straightened.
• The arrow is a triangle whose base is bent to the top.
• The bird's foot is a triangle, in which two corners are strongly pressed to the top.
• The eye is a free roll, in which both ends are compressed, without touching the middle.

Quilling: schemes of basic elements

Quilling elements:

• A rectangle is an eye that contracts in opposite directions, and then straight angles are aligned. The square is made according to the same scheme.
• A rhombus is an eye, in which angles are compressed in opposite directions.
• A star is a rhombus whose sides sink inwards.
• A semicircle is a free roll, in which the opposite ends are pinched, and then the space is straightened into a semicircle.
• A crescent is a semicircle whose base is bent inward.
• A leaf is an eye that is pressed against corners, but in the middle a volume is created.
• A wave is a sheet whose sides are bent in different directions.
• The turret is a triangle with a short base and long sides.
• The cone is a tight roll with a glued end that is then pushed like a kulek.
• The spiral curl is a twisted strip.
• Horns - a strip folded in half and twisted separately into a spiral.
• Curl - this is a flat strip, the ends of which are twisted in a spiral in different directions.

Unusual elements for flowers

In this case, too, has its secrets:

• A branch is a strip folded 1 to 2, in which both ends are twisted in a spiral in one direction at different levels.
• The heart is a strip folded in half, the ends of which are twisted into a spiral inside the figure.
• The tulip is a triangle, on which the base is compressed and a peculiar "nose" is formed.
• The loop petal is a strip that folds in the image of an accordion with hands and with a small remaining edge wraps around all the loops and is glued to the base with glue.
• The petal petal on the scallop is a strip that turns on the teeth of the crest with an increasing turn. Then, this element is removed and bent in half, wrapped around the end of the strip and glued.
• The two-colored element is two strips glued together, twisted into a spiral, from which the elements are made. Or they are finished elements glued together, which are wrapped in a strip of a different color.
• A shaggy core is a long, wide strip that is cut into small fringes and then twisted in a spiral. The end is glued to the base, and the cut strips are straightened in different directions.

Creating a postcard in the style of filigree

Now it becomes clear how to do quilling, that is, from the basic elements you create different compositions for postcards and even pictures. For a basis it is possible to take a pattern of ready work or the scheme from magazine. But you can make a piece yourself. Just on the front side of the card draw a schematic floral pattern, a butterfly and already on them glue the elements.

For example, in the lower left corner of the postcard we draw a bouquet of chamomiles with curls and leaves. Petals are made from a drop of white, the core is made either shaggy yellow, or from a tight roll. Chamomile can be made whole (it is the variety of ways and quilling is unique). The master class of making a flower with petals and the middle is as follows:

• Take a white strip 1.5 cm wide and 30 cm long;
• Make incisions 1-2 mm wide along the entire length, leaving 3-5 mm from the top;
• Paste a strip of yellow color 3-5 mm wide and 15 cm long on the back;
• Insert a yellow strip into the instrument and twist the tight roll;
• Edge glue to the flower;
• Gently with your fingers spread the petals in different directions.

Decoration of a postcard

We continue to talk about how to make quilling and postcards in this style. On the basis of glue different daisies. To change the size, simply take strips of different widths. Now to the flowers you glue the stem - the strip in the vertical position. And attach to it leaves made in the technique of leaves, waves and arrows. On the edge can be decorated with curls, twigs and horns.

For the postcard to be proportional, in the opposite corner, glue a butterfly, whose wings are made of arrows and drops, the body - from the eye, and the antennae - from the horns. Particularly attracting attention are voluminous postcards. This is also a quilling. How to make flowers bulk:

• The first layer is laid out 12 petals near the flower, made in the shape of the eye;
• Over the previous row, glue 4 drops;
• You make the middle of the star.

Another way of making volumetric colors:

• Cut out a circle from the paper that will determine the size of the flower;
• Bend the circle into 4 parts (you will get a funnel);
• Stick the petals on the concave side, leaving the middle;
• Also work the inside of the funnel;
• Now do a tight roll, to the edge of which you glue a strip with notches;
• Straighten the core and glue it to the middle of the funnel on the concave side.

Wood in the style of paper

In this technique it is interesting to make a tree. Quilling allows you to make it in a flat and three-dimensional form. In the first variant on a piece of paper, we glue the tree or trees:

• On paper, paint the background.
• Pencil the forms of wood and grass.
• Glue strips in an upright position along the lines of the trunk and branches.
• The trunk can be filled with brown eyes.
• Then from different shades of green make foliage from tight rolls.
• To create a multilayer, you can glue elements on top of the second layer.
• At the trunk, glue the grass from the leaf and eyes.

It only remains to decorate the frame with a tree. Quilling offers another version of the craft:

• Make hairy daisies.
• Also do the leaves, only take the tape longer, to form fluffy balls.
• Take a small pot or a cup of yogurt and zadekoriruyte it.
• In the foam ball insert the barrel, which is zadekriruyte green paper. For this purpose, a wooden skewer or thick wire is suitable.
• To the ball, glue the pieces of paper.
• In a glass, pour the gypsum solution, set the barrel and let it freeze.
• Cover the top of the pot with grass made of paper or satin ribbons.

If necessary, you can decorate the tree. Quilling allows you to make butterflies, spiders, birds, which can be placed on the crown.

How to make bulk flowers

In this technique, you can make ordinary flowers that you can put in a vase. Consider how to make gerberas:

• Cut 24 pink stripes 27 cm long and 12 cm long white.
• Glue them together.
• Twist the loose rolls, beginning at the pink end, and place them in a circle with a diameter of 1.5 cm.
• Make a sheet of rolls.
• Form a flower of 12 petals and glue them together.
• Make a paper funnel with a diameter of 4 cm.
• On the inside, glue the first layer of flowers.
• Turn the funnel and glue the next row of petals.
• Next, from the pink stripes of 27 cm in length, make 13 free rolls with a diameter of 9 mm.
• Make from them leaves and glue together in the form of a flower.
• From a pink strip in width of 1,5 sm cut a fringe.
• From a yellow or black strip of 40 cm in length, make a tight roll.
• To the edge of the roll, glue a strip of fringe and twist into a spiral, then swirl fringe.
• On the funnel, glue the 9-millimeter petals and core.

We collect a bouquet

We continue the conversation about how to make quilling and three-dimensional flowers in this technique.

• The funnel is slightly bent from the back.
• From the green strip, make a tight roll with a diameter of 3 cm and form a cone from it.
• From the skewer, make a stalk, wrapping it with green paper.
• In the cone insert the stem and glue to the wrong side of the funnel.
• Now, from the free rolls 2 cm in diameter, make a crescent.
• Out of 7 crescents, make a leaf in the form of a Christmas tree and glue them together.
• Attach the petiole to the lower leaves in two pieces and glue them to the stem.
• Make a spiral curl and decorate the joint.

Also, by analogy, make a whole bouquet. This and unique quilling. With your hands, according to this scheme, you can make different flowers: chamomile, cornflower, asters, in which the petals can be bent with scissors.

Paper grinder is an amazing creativity. Try to make simple elements and then go on to complex masterpieces - landscapes, paintings, portraits, voluminous crafts. This is an unusual style! Quilling can be taken as a basis for making panels for photo frames, where curls, horns, twigs are made from cardboard, which is then decorated for wood or metal. Try to make work in this technique, and you will not remain indifferent.
