DIY QUILLED MINI LEGS

Hi friends.. 

Today I am going to introduce you the art of Quilling.. For those who don’t know what it is, read the para below.. courtesy wikipedia ;)

Quilling or paper filigree 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, jewellery, mobiles etc

 Saw this design in etsy shop… Couldn't stop making one...


Things you need
Strips of paper 
Glue
Quilling tool
Scissors

                                                                                                                                                           

 Here I have made two basic shapes in quilling..

First one is tear drop shape. To make this we need 2 big tear drops(2 normal length papers are used) and 2 small tear drops(one long paper is cut into 2).

Second shape is called tight coil

As  simple as that....

Hi everyone..

Today Iam going to share a Kerala Mural painting that I completed long before.. This is based on Kathakali.

Kathakali  is a stylized classical Indian Dance Drama noted for the attractive make-up of characters, elaborate costumes, detailed gestures and well-defined body movements presented in tune with the anchor playback music and complementary percussion.
