Quilled earrings peacock feather pattern



This time I tried creating the peacock feather through quilling. I had seen many on the net but was still confused of how to get the perfect peacock feather pattern. I then thought trying it out with some random colors keeping in mind the major colors which the feather reflects. I couldnt get the exact look of a peacock feather but while making out these I got an idea that these colors could create amazing patterns if used wisely. For the time being I am happy that I could create these, thought not exactly similar but I am liking the vibrant colors which I have used. Next time will try to improve on these.

A simple paper bead neck piece made from newspaper

Paper beads are becoming my latest craze, and the more patterns of these beads I get to see on the net the more my hands crave to make them soon. There are several ideas cropping up in my mind regarding the paper beads necklace which i shall be making soon. I am hoping I will be patient enough to sit and make the beads as the process becomes a bit time consuming but since I love making them I have started collecting all sorts of colored papers.

The paper beads of this simple neckpiece have been made from the newspaper (The more glazed version of paper which comes as extra handout). Since I dont have the plastic beads as of now, I wanted them to put alternatively after each paper bead to give a more fresh look. Will buy them soon for my future projects :)

A quilled star pattern

I was trying to learn some different quilling patterns and came across this one. This came out with the usual combing technique, the only difference being that the two petals have been stuck side to side rather than folding them inwards. Will try more of these kind of stars someday. :)
