Paper Quilling For Beginners

We're way into the new craze called quilling. "Craze" is an unlikely word to describe a craft that dates back to the Renaissance, but whatever - it's trending.
In case you don't know, quilling has nothing to do with hedgehogs or feather pens. It's a paper craft that involves rolling narrow strips of paper into unique 3D shapes. These little paper forms can then be used to decorate greeting cards, pictures, gift bags and boxes, or glued together to make mosaics, sculptures and other works of art. And here's why we heart it so much: Quilling is creative, easy, fun, inexpensive and, once you get on a roll (ha), incredibly relaxing. It's also pretty addicting - which is why we're giving you the deets on how to make dozens of different shapes. Pretty soon you'll want to be quilling and chilling all the time.
