Get crafty this Christmas and discover the beautiful art of paper quilling!
Paper quilling became particularly popular in Britain during the 18th century, when it was a fashionable pastime among women and was used to decorate boxes, cards and other items. Today, it’s still a beautiful way to turn simple strips of paper into intricate designs.
