October's craft kit - Sugar Skull Quilling

This month we embraced all things Day of the Dead and created this beautiful Sugar Skull quilling kit!

This kit included;

Quilling papers

Quilling tool

PVA glue

Tweezers

Pins

Quilling stencil

Templates

And a frame for your masterpiece!

Quilling, if you have never tried it, is the art of rolling up long, thin strips of coloured paper and creating all sorts of interesting shapes to build up one of these beautiful intricate images.

We came up with this lovely rainbow Sugar Skull design just in time for Halloween/Day of the Dead season, but you could always come up with your own ideas and designs as there were plenty of supplies included to experiment with!

We loved learning this one. (And can't wait to get making some quilled Christmas cards!)
