A box using the quilling technique is one of those items that you can make yourself and at the same time please yourself or your loved ones with a new thing in the house. The box will become a reliable storage for your things and can decorate any room. At the same time, this type of decor will be convenient to store and at the same time, easy to make. You will need special material and step-by-step instructions that will tell you how to implement this item.

First of all, we need such items:

Wooden board (smooth and soft, for pins)
Quilling Line
Tweezers for deformation
Knife (sharp)
Pins
Handle gel
Quilling paper (lilac color, dark and light)

This priority set will help us makehandicraft. The work is done on a special wooden board, preferably a soft wood. This is necessary in order to stick pins into the object. You also need to use tweezers and a ruler.

Casket bottom

We make space for the rectangle.We fill it with a pattern using special elements. First of all, fix your work range with pins. Next, start working. The first thing you do is a pattern of "washers". They will be located on the edge of our box. Next, we make drops that will be inside the installation. After that, we work on the pattern of eyes, which are also fixed in the inner part of the range. Then, rings are made in the central part and drops that will be of a darker tone in the rims. After the materials are placed in place, they need to be fixed with glue. We wait for some time until the glue dries, then remove the bottom from the board. If everything was glued properly, we cut our installation off the board with a sharp knife. Next, we coat the bottom with glue and leave it to dry.

Casket walls

Afterwards, we work on the walls of the box.The wall rectangle should be shorter than the one for the bottom. We glue the rows into parts using glue, aligning the materials with a ruler. It is necessary to make 11 modules of drops of dark tones, then make 10 eyes of light tones and finish them with a row of drops in a dark tone. The pattern of the drawing is done in the sequence 6 by 5 by 6. We cover the walls with a diluted mixture of glue and dry.

Fixing walls

Next, we coat the lower levels of the drop with glue andwe put them on the edge of the bottom. We adjust the position so that they touch the adjacent walls only at the corners. We need to glue all the sides to the bottom. We apply adhesive substance to the joints with a toothpick.

Bezel

We make the rim of the box using the shape of the washers,which can be seen in the photo. Attach them to the top of the wall so that they frame your work. Glue one washer to each side of the box for fastening.Working on the lid of our box will be simple.It completely repeats the bottom of the box, only on top of the work you need to come up with your own pattern. You can use ready-made ideas for the shapes of modules, or think over your own solutions that will help to implement your idea. Thus, our box is complete. Crafting a box using the quilling technique can be a great gift, or decorate your home as a beautiful decorative element!
