Quilling is a very exciting form of artistic expression

The colored strips are rolled up with a special pen, the elements glued together, and thus create various decorations and even everyday objects as well. The rolls can add up various shapes, flowers, leaves, exotic insects and beautiful landscapes. During the Renaissance, the french and italian nuns and monks have been decorated book covers and other items with Quilling technique. After painting and gilding the impact was amazing, like an original wrought-iron decoration. The Quilling has become really popular in the 18th
