QUILLING PAPER TOPIARY

Send

In today's workshop, I would like to tell and show you how to make topiary using the quilling technique. This topiary is very attractive, so it will certainly complement the interior of your home. In the article you will find a detailed description and scheme for the manufacture of topiary.
The following materials will be required to make topiary using quilling techniques:

Newspapers.
PVA glue.
Thermogun with transparent glue.
Wire.
Flower pot.
Quilling paper or office paper.
A thread.
Wire.

Getting to the production of topiary:
First you need to make a base, for this we form two balls of newsprint, one more and one smaller. Thoroughly grease them with glue and cover them with green office paper. We form the stem from the wire and also cover it with green office paper. We leave our blanks to dry completely for several hours, in order to speed up the process, you can use a hairdryer.

After the details have dried, we visit the largest of the balls in a flower pot and fix it with hot glue.

We make a hole in the ball and glue the stem inside, around we also fix it with hot glue.

In the second ball, we also make a hole and attach it to the stem. At first, the craft is very unstable, so we back it up with something and give it the correct shape.

While the glue is hardening, we produce leaves from green office paper, we need about a hundred of them.

The first batch of leaves is pasted over the pot and the base of our topiary, as shown in the photo, in several rows.

Glue the remaining leaves to the top of the craft.

Then we make flowers from office paper or quilling paper. One flower consists of a fluffy center and about five to six petals. Such flowers will need about twenty. We also need simple loose spirals of white paper.
