Paper Quill Mini Potted Flowers

This class will be available to view on June 18, 2025.
Nikki Furlong of Simply Quilled Designs lives in the Pacific Northwest and is inspired by nature and all its colors and textures. She brings this inspiration to the art of paper quilling. Paper quilling is a traditional and little-known art form. She takes long thin paper strips, coils them tightly, and then bends and shapes the coiils into intricate designs. In this class, Nikki will teach you how to paper quill a mini pot of flowers. You'll learn how to use a quilling tool and transform paper strips into tiny circles, cups, teardrops, petals, and scrolls. Then you’ll assemble these paper shapes into a tiny, charming bouquet with touches of paper greenery. Even the soil is paper! You have the option of placing your potted flowers under a glass dome for protection, and Nikki will also show you how to make a wire clip to add a photo or note. This project is easy to personalize for the perfect gift, and you'll have a lot of fun playing with paper shapes and colors to create your own flowers and arrangements. Learn how to:
