Quilling is so popular these days, from accessories to home decor... you can make anything with the quilling technique.

If you're new in quilling and not sure how to start this project can be start, it's really easy and includes only 2 shapes. Follow the instructions and find out how it's made!

Step 1: Materials Needed

To make this paper quilled pendant you'll need:

Quilling papers
Glue
Quilling tools (optional, I didn't use any!)
Jump ring

Step 2: The Basic Shapes

Select 2 colors for the pendant, I used black and red.

Teardrop: First of all, use red quilling strips to make 6 teardrop patterns,

Double Spiral: Prepare 2.5 -3 inches long black quilling strips. Fold the black strip into half and then unfold again, this was to mark the half of the strip. Coil the black strip from any one side and stop quilling when you reach the half fold. Similarly quill the other side of the black strip. Make 6 of these.

Step 3: Joining Teardrop and Double Spiral

Now we're going to join the teardrop and double spiral patterns.

Take a teardrop and a double spiral pattern. Apply glue on the straight parts of the teardrop pattern. Unfold the coils of the double spiral slightly and place the teardrop pattern's pointy edge right on the half fold of the double spiral. Wrap the teardrop pattern with the coiled black strip as shown in the picture of this step. Allow the glue to dry.

Similarly join the rest of them.
