Paper Quilling Presents or Gift Box design

 

So far, in this quilling for beginners series, we’ve tackled basic coils and curvy shapes, such as teardrops and marquise.

Let’s now move on to another part of quilling: how to make paper squares and turn them into a pile of Gifts Card that’s perfect for Christmas or even a birthday card!

Supplies to make the Quilled Christmas Presents Gift Tag

  • Quilling paper strips
  • Slotted quilling tool
  • Craft glue
  • Scissors
  • Card Stock

How to make a quilled square or Rectangle shape

To make a diamond or a square, first, you need to create a basic marquis shape. After shaping, rotate the marquis 90 degrees and then pinch both sides again. This will create a diamond shape. If you want to make a square, gently open up the shape between your fingers to complete.

Rectangles and squares are made very similarly. The difference is in how much you rotate the marquis shape before pinching additional angles. Rotate it only slightly before pinching and then open the shape to reveal the perfect rectangle. You can also add 2 differently colored strips together to form a square or rectangle.

Making Paper Quilling Presents or Gift Box design

1st cut 2 pieces of 5mm quilling paper, fold up both ends (about 5mm deep) and stick them to the square box to make a cross;
2nd, cut another piece of 5mm quilling paper, and then roll the ends with a to form a bow shape and stick it on the top of the square to form a gift box.

You could also twirl a piece of quilling paper around a toothpick to create swirls. Thes look really nice as ribbons too. Make a few in different colors & shapes – rectangles, squares, tall & short. Stick them on a gift tag to resemble a pile of presents. 

These little shapes would look really cool on a Birthday card or any occasion where gifts are exchanged as a gift tag. 

This Quilled Christmas Presents idea can be turned into pretty earrings too. 

 

There you go, with a little bit of practice, you can make these absolutely adorable quilled Christmas tags. Just imagine how pretty this year’s presents are going to look with these cute tags! They’re just the handmade touch needed to give even a store-bought gift that personal touch!
