How To Paper Quill A Realistic Looking Miniature Clay Pot/ Perfect For A Dollhouse or Room Box

[@jenpink4298]

So cute! And such a good idea to be able to make multiple pots by pulling out the middle! And I love the way you did the aging 👍🏻

[@Lauras-tinyview]

Thanks so much! 😊 I love the different sizes you can get.

[@wendywalker3598]

You are the queen of quilling! I’ve just had a light bulb moment thank you - that tapered triangle or lack of one is where I’ve been going wrong. I just love your use of everyday waste materials to create perfect miniatures. Another item to add to my to do list, my watch again list is full of your tutorials! ❤

[@Lauras-tinyview]

That’s so cool Wendy! 🥰 I appreciate you watching and rewatching! That extra triangular piece adds just a subtle angle but enough for it to look more like a clay pot.

[@karakreations1103]

Lovely looking pots ❤ I especially liked how you removed the paper from the middle and used it over and over again 😃 genius idea!!!

[@Lauras-tinyview]

Thanks Kara!!

[@agm97ga]

Thank you for the tutorial. These look so good. I love all that you have taught us to make with quilling. It is amazing how many different things you can make for miniatures with it!

[@Lauras-tinyview]

You are very welcome! Glad you liked it. I love how with quilling you can use paper that would had normally gone into the trash. It’s a form of recycling. 😆

[@carol-annegriffin6234]

I just love your style of tutorials! Can’t wait to try and make some pots like this.

[@Lauras-tinyview]

That makes my day! Thanks!! 😊 So glad you enjoyed the video!

Can't wait to try this, Laura. Thank you so much! ❤

You are so welcome! Have fun! 😁

Oh, these are so cute! I suggest trying a fabric rotary cutter for those long triangles. Saves the wrists and a step.

[@Lauras-tinyview]

Thank you! ☺️ I have a rotary cutter and an old blade too. I will give it a try. I have arthritis in my neck and shoulder and pushing down on my exacto or utility knife can make it flair up. So I have had to come up with other ways to cut. 😆

[@agneschrismer9946]

I have a ton of quilling supplies from many years ago. I made so many things. Then I just put it all away. I guess I need to pull out all my already cut strips and make some pots. I made small bowls and people before but never any pots. Time to get quilling again. Thanks for reminding me how much fun it is.

[@Lauras-tinyview]

I do that too put stuff away and then never use it again. After recently moving into a one bedroom apartment I decided if I’m keeping it I better use it or donate it. 😆 Glad I inspired you to pull out some forgotten quilling supplies.

[@kathleenherris9397]

Realistic is right! I would have thought they would unroll when you started to pull from the middle. These are perfection.

[@Lauras-tinyview]

Thank you! So glad you enjoyed them!!

Love your videos. Thank you for sharing this beautiful tutorial. This will be a weekend project for my greenhouse.❤❤❤

Wonderful! Sounds like you’re going to have a lot of fun this weekend! ❤️

[@nessiemonstercrafts]

I had been wondering how to make plant pots with paper like this! Perfect, and probably much much more simple than the convoluted ways I was thinking up hahahaha. Very clever Laura!

[@Lauras-tinyview]

I’m so glad that it will be helpful for you and your Gnomes! I will have a plant video sometime soon too to fill them. 🪴 Thanks for watching Nessie!

Thank you Laura. You must have read my mind as I was wondering how to make convincing terracotta pots from paper. The thing I like about your method is that each pot is different and you can control the size. Am currently making tins for the pantry shelf and it is so satisfying to make use of scrap paper and give this resource another life👍 . BTW if you have any grout over from a tiling job it mixes well with paint to give a stone effect.

[@Lauras-tinyview]

It’s been mentioned how it’s quicker to run a strip of paper around a handle of something to make a pot. That’s true but you don’t get that subtle angle of the clay pot and the paper makes it look thin. That’s a great and fast method but I really wanted these to look thick and chunky. I’m glad I was able to read your mind. 😆 That’s so true how super satisfying it is to make something yourself and better yet if it was going to trash. Seeing it take on the new life because you took the time to make it is satisfying. How are you making your tins? Are you quilling any of them?Thanks so much for sharing that tip about tile grout. Do you think that spackle or wall compound could do the same too?

[@coby9896]

Definitely using scrap paper and quilling the tins. With a bit of gesso on top and bottom then painted silver the results are those round subtle circles that cans used to have, some still do👏 Spackle or wall compound might be a little too smooth but worth a try. I just had the grout on hand and it goes a long way. BTW it is cheap and readily available from tile suppliers if you don’t have any left overs.

[@Lauras-tinyview]

@@coby9896 That was going to be my next question… what if you never tile but want the grout? Sounds like I need to pick some up to have on hand. It’ll be fun to experiment. Thanks again for sharing that with me.

Привет из России! Замечательная идея , но трудоёмкая - можно бумагу наматывать на ручку инструмента для квилинга или ровную палочку.Этот способ требует меньше бумаги и действий , ничего не надо убирать из середины будущего горшка.Творческих успехов вам в превосходной миниатюре !!!!!!

[@Lauras-tinyview]

Welcome! I have made them that way too. You are right they are much quicker and less paper. I wanted something that was heavier, chunky looking like clay not thin. I appreciate you for sharing that method way with me. It’s a great tip!! 😊

I've made 4 "houses", I'm working on a hobbit house now (5th one). It's got a top "Patio"... and a front porch. Looks like I'll be making these for them all! busy busy busy! lol Thank you for showing us your skill!!! These are really nice. Might I suggest though... instead of gesso, you might want to try mod podge. It's stronger and holds the item very well too.

[@Lauras-tinyview]

Oh that sounds so fun! Do you have your houses posted anywhere? I’d love to see them. Thanks for the Mod Podge tip!

[@StizelSwik]

@@Lauras-tinyview hmmm... Good idea to post them. I'll look into making a blog for my art. Thanks!and you are very welcome!
