Personalised Hand-made Gift for Wedding- Let the Love Grow

Wedding is a time when the tradition of giving and receiving of gifts comes to life. So now the question, what should be the gift. Looking for unique wedding gift ideas that will make the happy couple even happier? In my opinion, personalized gifts exclusively for the couple makes more sense than any other gifts. Who does not like their name to be engraved in an item, be it a showpiece, wall decor, home decor or any sort of gift items. This makes the gift memorable and ideally loved by everyone.

And when these personalized gifts are hand-made, of course that is going to add some more stars to it. The same thing we did for one of our friend's marriage. Initially, we were confused on what gift we should give and if at all its going to be a personalized one; what should be the theme or content for the same.Then we got a wonderful idea of making something related to Love and Marriage which are of course relate-able. The mixture of quilling ,clay art and a bit of water color has been a  great combination and it came up well at the end of day. I thought of sharing the making procedure and materials used for the same so that you can also make for your loved ones. 

Procedure

• Draw a outline of the theme in a paper
• Trace the drawing from paper to A4 cardstock
• Starting from the top, I quilled the name first

Paper Quilled Earrings

This post is all about earrings made out of quilling paper. I made "jhumkas"(Indian traditional round shaped earring) on which i have painted some pattern with acrylic paint. I have used weaving basket and honey comb technique for the other earrings. 

To protect the earring from water, I used varnish as a top coat

I made simple roll out of quilling paper to make this stud. I painted the earring with blue color to match with my dress.

I made multiple earrings and painted some pattern on earring. One can make their own earring as per their dress combination.

I also made the earring made out of clay, still it takes time for drying, will post in the upcoming week.

One can make a Dream Catcher using their own creativity. Generally the dream catchers are made up of round shaped metal or wooden hoop and embroidery threads are used to cover the hoop.
