Quilled floating teacup

 

I hve previously quilled a floating teacup and wanted to see if I could do it again. 

This is the end result.

It took many hours of quilling (and created lots of bits of ends of quilling paper all over the floor of my craft room) but I'm really pleased with the result.

My only problem now is - what do I do with the finished article? I love making these things but have nowhere to display them, so i either end up giving them away or putting them in a cupboard somewhere. Which is a bit of a shame after all the work that went into creating it.

 

Roses

​

I’ve been making roses out of paper. 

On Valentines Day I like to make a little something for the girls I work closely with, normally 4 or 5 people. 

This year I thought we all needed a bit of a boost so I made 30 paper roses to take into work and, hopefully, put a smile on the face of the recipients. 

I truly believe that if we all care a little bit we can make a difference. 🌹💕🌹

When making paper flowers you need a decent pair of scissors, some good quality glue and paper. That's pretty much all you need to start with, so not a huge layout if you're beginning your crafty journey.
