Blue and white

This handmade frame was made when I had recently been to my mom's place few days ago. Actually one of the glass photo frames which were placed on the table fell down due to wind and broke L
My mom was very upset as it had a very good photograph placed in it.
I thought why not I make one.
So took an old carton box and made a photo frame from it.



The blue handmade paper has given more beauty to the photograph.
My mom was very happy as it is unbreakable J

Quilled Origami

This is a quick post 

I gifted one of my friend an origami kusudama.
Now it sits as a decorative piece at my friend's desk at her workplace.
But I was missing that kususdama so made one for myself.
This time I added the flavor of quilling as well

Two Little Birds

Helloooo,
Recently when I opened my craft box, I found few left over spirals from my previous quilling project. Didn't feel like leaving those quilled spirals lifeless..Suddenly I got this idea to make a pink heart. Till date I never tried this type of heart in quilling.
Later thought why not I add few letters. So filled this heart with LOVE J




I still felt something is missing. Then I introduced these two cute little birds loving each other.

Finally I felt its complete with two little love birds with pink heart.


My cousin actually liked this card..He wants to gift it to his girlfriend but feeling shy to ask me. ;)

Mother's Day Gift

This is my first framed quilling.
I made this for my mom as a Mother's day gift!!

Recently I came to my mom's place to stay for a week just to take rest,eat n sleep.
I am just enjoying the peaceful stay with my mom.Felt like making something special for her.

After looking at Ann's post, made these birds.
This is the first time, I tried these birds i.e, with bit of detailed feathers.

I wanted to try some different type of pattern for flowers so tried this..
Each flower is made of three petals.. The centre piece is made with white tight rolls.
I think this is the smallest roll I can ever make.I used 3mm length strip to make the centre roll.
As I always say,it was fun making this framed quilling.


So here is the Mother bird and its baby bird..
My mother was very much excited looking at me quilling these birds!!
Thanks for dropping by!! Please do comment if you like my work!!!

Quilled cup!!

Recently I found new love towards 3D quilling. I was actually inspired by this post .So finally tried this quilled cup.
Initially I thought it might not take much time to do this cup , but  came into reality only after I  started this project :-). But it was fun making this cup.
This cup is made with 80% tear drops and 15%spirals and 5% tight circles.
There are lots of lessons learnt on assembling the quilled patterns while making this cup.
I used a glass tumbler as a mould to make this cup

Planning to make the plate and the spoon as well.
