MECollab: Make a Quilled (Paper Fillagree) Card In-Person / Online

Join us to learn how to make paper fillagree artwork.

To participate you will need:

  • A sturdy piece of paper on which to glue your paper art. 
  • Glue
    • If purchasing, we recommend a biodegradable brand made from plants such as a starch paste (for example such as Yasutomo Nori Paste) but traditional petrochemical PVA glues will also work if you have some to use up.
  • Strips of paper to make your artworks
  • Tools to wrap paper around or in
    • a round pencil
    • a thin wire
    • small caps
  • Tools to secure your paper while it dries
    • a corkboard and pins
    •  

A quilling set is available for checkout at our local library, but you do not need to use this to participate in this craft. 

MORE INFORMATION

Prep for this craft by cutting your colored scrap paper into long strips. 1/8th inch wide is a good width for a beginner. You can find used colored paper by utilizing old magazines from our magazine swap or recycling bin. You can use a paper cutter, a rotary cutter or basic scissors to cut the strips.
