Hello and welcome to another article on Kalanirmitee.
To create a Quilled Jhumkas, we need following material:
1. Paper quilling strips: 5mm paper quilling strips
2. Earring loops, eye pins
3. Crystal bead, bead caps, spacers
4. Acrylic colour (to make design on jhumkas), brush: No.0 or 1
5. Half pearls or crystals
Quilling Tools:
1. Slotted tool
2. Fine tipped tweezers
3. Scissors
4. Dome shaped mold
5. Glue
Procedure:
1.To make these Jhumkas, glue 10 strips at the end ( overlap the ends of strips and glue them together). Roll the strips into a tight coil. Shape it into required dome shape by using dome shape mold. After shaping it, apply one coat of glue. When the glue is completely dried out, make the design using acrylic colour.
2. Then apply 2/3 coats of clear varnish. Varnish will take time to dry.
3. Let the varnish completely dry. Then you can stick embellishment to the jhumkas. And finally put the eye pin and ear hooks.
4. The Quilled Jhumkas are ready.
Please feel free to contribute and suggest any of your ideas. Your suggestion and comments will always be welcome. Hope you enjoy my blog.
Thank you!!
Happy Quilling!!

What is Paper Quilling?
Paper Quilling is an art form that involves the use of strips
of paper that are rolled, shaped, and glued together to create
decorative designs.
The paper is rolled, looped, curled, twisted and otherwise
manipulated to create shapes which make up designs to decorate greetings
cards, pictures, boxes, eggs, and to make models, jewelry, mobiles etc.
Quilling starts with rolling a strip of paper into a coil and then
pinching the coil into shapes that can be glued together.
There are advanced techniques and different sized paper
that are used to create 3D miniatures, abstract art, and quilled flowers
among many things.
