Basket with flowers, quilling for beginners
Master - class.Quilling - baskets with flowers. I want to share with you a master class on creating baskets with flowers in the quilling style with step-by-step photos. This is a simple and original gift option for any occasion. You can use it to decorate your home. For work we will need: - stick (tool for twisting paper); - ruler; - scissors; - PVA glue; - multi-colored paper for quilling 5 mm; - toothpicks. To create a basket, we need to twist 6 free rolls. I have 3 white and 3 blue rolls. These circles need to be rolled into crescents and glue the edges together. The next layers of the basket are made according to the same principle. We twist the 6th roll again, give it a crescent shape and glue it. But! You need to glue in a checkerboard pattern, covering the empty spaces. The height of the basket depends on your desire. Leave the basket to dry. In the meantime, let's start preparing to create flowers. For the first flower, I took quilling paper of two colors: orange and black. I glued a strip of black paper with the orange one together. I got a long two-color strip. You need 6 of these blanks. Now you need to twist 6 rolls of the same diameter. From these circles you need to make petals (drops). Namely, squeeze the blank on one side with two fingers. Glue the petals to each other. For convenience, you can secure our flower with needles until it dries. Then we make the stem of the flower. To do this, you need to twist a green strip into a tight roll. Use the back of a pencil or stick to shape the roll into a cone. For strength, coat the inside of the cone with glue and carefully insert a toothpick. Take another green strip and fold it in half. Place our blank with a toothpick in the middle. Glue this strip to the middle and start to hide the toothpick by twisting it. Twist the edges of the stems randomly. When all the blanks are dry, glue them, creating a flower. Glue a loosely twisted roll on top of the flowers. The color and number of such flowers depends on your imagination. Place them in our basket, covering the empty spaces. You can glue a handle to the basket, which is made from a strip of paper. Which is folded in several layers and glued with glue.
