With the help of quilling technology you can make a simple and at the same time beautiful snowflake
It would seem that summer just ended, and winteris just around the corner. With the onset of cold weather, people begin to be overcome by thoughts of a snowy, cold winter and everything connected with it, including the New Year holidays, during which you really want to congratulate all your friends and family and give them a piece of your soul. Crafts made using the paper rolling or quilling technique, as it is called, for example, paintings made with your own hands, are the best choice for this. Crafts made using the quilling technique, like no other paper products, are able to convey all the beauty of a snowy winter and its intricate patterns. Snowflakes made using quilling are easy and quick to make. They all turn out very beautiful, and are ideal as gifts for the holidays, especially if they are made by a child. Let's see how to make a snowflake with your own hands? The process of making a snowflake: 1. The basis of everything in the quilling technique is strips of special paper twisted into rings for this type of needlework. If they are too dense, you need to put the rings on the table so that they "spread out" a little, and then, gluing the free end on one side, give them the shape of a "droplet" by squeezing. In this way, we make the middle;2. In the next row there will be a droplet, but of a larger size;
3. And the last, final step. In it, by bending the strip in the middle and twisting its edges, we make a “heart” figure;
4. The final stage of the work will be gluing the finished figures.
This example shows the most basicsnowflake. If you use your imagination and use other shapes and techniques, you will get a more intricate and complex figure that will look great on a Christmas tree as a decoration. In addition, this figure can be placed on a greeting card, which you can also make yourself. Don't be afraid to experiment, because quilling is creativity, and it doesn't like monotony. Good luck to you!
