Quilling, or paper filigree, is the art of rolling and gluing thin strips of paper into different shapes to create decorative designs. These beautiful three-dimensional embellishments can then be used to decorate anything, including this Rosh Hashanah card with a quilled pomegranate. While the technique for quilling is very simple, the design element can be complex. This makes it an ideal craft for a variety of grade levels, as it can be as intricate or as basic as required.
Students will strengthen eye-hand coordination, and the ability to follow detailed directions. Students will demonstrate the middah (attribute) of bein adam l’chaveiro (relationship between a man and his friend) when they give the card to their friends or family.
