Usually I don't get much free time on a normal working day; still, since I have taken a resolution of doing atleast *something* creative everyday# I am exploring few new craft techniques.
So while brainstorming, it clicked me that long time back I saw few of my juniors in college trying Quilling.
It is a paper craft stuff done with colored paper strips. After asking them about it, I got to know that these paper strips are available in market in all colors and widths; also one can get a complete kit with a folding tool, stencils for different shapes and glues also.
After some R n D what I learnt was that Qulling is an art of folding, pasting colored paper strips and making shapes out of it that can be converted into an artwork or even products.
So after deciding one fine day to try this technique, I logged on to my YouTube account and saw some tutorials for the same. Next thing I realized was - This is not my cup of tea!!
Though the outcome of these carefully molded shapes looks really cool, but the most important thing it requires which I lack is Patience! God, it takes like hours ( atleast in my case it did ) and all you can see is approx an inch or two of work done. But no doubt the result of this time taking stuff is intricate and beautiful.
Sharing few pictures I found over internet that would give you a hint of what I am talking about.
( P.S: The sources are unknown as I had randomly just saved few for reference).
Stay Patient. Stay Blessed.
