Craftsy Quilling: Imaginations Come to Life With Art
Help me give my students the complete quilling tool kit to meet all of their creative needs. They are passionate about making crafts and sharing their art with the world.
How can we use discarded books to promote creative expression and encourage relaxation? This question will be at the heart of our work as students learn to quill and nurture their artistic minds and hearts. Students want a way to be social and help one another. Learning to quill together gives students the opportunity. As students learn to cooperate and share what they've made we will be creating an even larger community of makers. With countless quilling projects, there are countless ways for students to relax, destress, learn the joy of artistic creation, and engage with others they might not have otherwise spoken to.
Our students are kind, creative, and passionate makers who want to share the gift of creation with other students in our school.
They love to create, talk about their crafts and hobbies, and teach others about their chosen art form. The most recent "converts" to the love of making have been our girls at lunch. Their passion for community and creating something in the world has translated into excitement for our makerspace. They would like to use quilling as a way to build community and encourage more makers.
My Project
Students will learn about a creative art form and practice at lunch and during afterschool workshops to create their own projects using the quilling kits.
Students will have an opportunity to use creative expression and be social while participating in our larger makerspace community.
Students will learn valuable cooperation skills and share in the community building of creating something beautiful and sharing it with the world. All students are invited to participate and learn about quilling while being part of the larger makerspace community. We hope to nurture the hearts and minds of young creative artists by providing a fun and social activity like quilling for all students.
