These are genuine quilling: thin strips of coloured paper rolled into coils, pinched into petal shapes and glued edge-on so the rolled edge of the paper faces you. Look closely at a petal and the spiral is visible inside a narrow paper frame, with a small pearl bead set at the centre of each flower.

That edge-on construction is why quilling looks the way it does. Because the paper stands on its edge rather than lying flat, each petal has real depth and throws a shadow across the card, which is what makes a handmade greeting card look worked on rather than printed.

The photographed designs run pink on cream, deep red inside a yellow frame, and dark green with an orange edge, with a matching green leaf spray to set alongside a flower. The two-tone framing is part of the craft — a contrasting outer strip is what defines the petal shape.

They belong on things that stay still and stay dry: greeting cards, invitation and shaadi card work, scrapbook and journal pages, gift tags, bookmarks and framed paper art. A dab of craft glue or a glue dot under the centre is enough to hold one down.

Paper quilling is delicate by nature. A coil crushes if it is pressed hard and the paper cockles if it gets damp, so these are not the right choice for hair clips, bag charms or anything that will be handled daily. For those jobs the large moulded loop flowers we sell hold up far better.
