Quilling kits - OMG what to buy?

Ok, let's start with where to buy. I wish I could tell you to go to your closest arts and craft store and get it today. Unfortunately, none of the largest that I know sell any quilling kits, paper, or tools in store, yes, not even Micheals.

So, you would have to purchase online. If you search on Amazon, eBay, Walmart ext, you will find a wide variety of brands.

Two key details to pay attention before you buy one:
1. Width of the quilling paper - my recommendation for starters - 5mm. Choosing the right paper is not as easy as it seems, so I will write my reviews on paper in a separate post.
2. Essential tools you must have (in my opinion) are - quilling board, quilling tool, glue bottle with silica cap, and quilling paper.

From all the kits I ever bought, this one was the best money/quality value.
If you decide to buy this one from Amazon, please use the link attached to support my art.

This kit include all things (except the glue) you need to create a quilling craft. 1.30 colors paper quilling 100strips and 5 colors/pkg,600 strips total,390mm length(approx. 15 3/8 inch.) All of the above paper quilling you can choose the width: 1.1 Paper Width: 3mm (approx. 1/8 inch) this width...

Sooo excited to share my first review!!!

As a quilling artist, I constantly try new products and materials. One of the keys to creating clean work is using the right glue. I tried most of the glues in the market, and I use different adhesives for different purposes.
In this post, I share the three brands I use for gluing the stripes of quilling paper to a coil and to a paper surface.

I am actually mixing two types of glue One is the PPA (matt not glossy) and the other one is the Quick Dry Tacky Glue. I mix 60% PPA and 40% Tacky.
Another (cheaper) option is to use Aleene's Original. In my experience, it is a bit thick and not so easy to apply so add some water to it.
