Hi everyone,
Here's a step-by-step guide to quilling a lavender flower:
1. Gather Materials: You'll need quilling paper strips in shades of purple and green, a quilling tool, glue, scissors, and a template (optional).
2. Prepare Strips: Cut the quilling paper into strips of equal length. For lavender petals, use shades of purple, and for the stem and leaves, use green.
3. Create Petals: Use the quilling tool to coil each strip into tight circles, then release the coil and allow it to relax slightly. Pinch one end to form a teardrop shape, resembling a petal. Repeat this process for as many petals as you need, typically around 10-15 for a lavender flower.
4. Form Flower Head: Arrange the petals in a circular pattern, slightly overlapping each other, to form the flower head. Secure the petals together with a dab of glue at the base.
5. Add Detail: To add depth and dimension, gently curve the edges of the petals outward using your fingers or a quilling tool. This will give the flower a more natural appearance.
6. Create Stem and Leaves: For the stem, coil a green strip of quilling paper into a tight spiral, then elongate it to the desired length. Shape green strips into small teardrop shapes to create leaves.
7. Assemble: Glue the stem and leaves to the back of the flower head, positioning them as desired. Allow the glue to dry completely.
8. Final Touches: If desired, add additional details such as tiny paper buds or tendrils to enhance the realism of the flower.
9. Display or Gift: Once the glue is dry, your quilled lavender flower is ready to display in a vase , use as a decorative element in crafts, or give as a thoughtful handmade gift.
Enjoy the process and feel free to customize your lavender flower with different shades of purple or additional embellishments!
