Paper Quilling Jewelry is a fun and creative paper craft that can be used to create jewelry. It can also be used to decorate pictures, greeting cards, boxes and more.
The paper quilling techniques described here are easy enough for beginners to try, and some quillers even work without a tool at all!
Blue Earrings with White Stones
These versatile blue and white earrings will add a pop of color to your wardrobe. You can wear them as everyday earring to match your dress with a fun twist or wear them for a special occasion.
This earring design features three sets of teardrop ring coils and one or two large domed tight coils in the center. You can make these earrings with other types of wires, too.
Paper quilling is an art form that uses strips of paper rolled and shaped and then glued into decorative designs. This craft originated in ancient times when nuns used goose quills to create coiled shapes for decoration of reliquaries and holy pictures. They substituted for more expensive metalwork. These days, you can use the same techniques to make beautiful jewelry.

Metallic Gold Card Necklace with Beads and Paper Quilled
Quilling, also called paper-rolling or paper scrolling, has a long history. It was popular in the 1800s and early 1900s, when ladies of genteel families took up quilling along with needle work and embroidery. Special recesses were made in tea caddies, baskets, frames, and screens for intricate coiled paper shapes.
To make these earrings, you’ll need silver-edge ivory quilling strips (1/8″ wide or 3mm). I also used a gold-edge ivory strip in one pair and a yellow-edge blue for another. If you don’t have the specialty papers, you can cut your own light to medium weight paper with a craft knife and metal-edged ruler. You can also use a Krylon leafing pen or metallic gel pen to add a little shine to plain quilling strips.
Red Rose Earrings
When it comes to jewelry, roses are a classic. These dainty paper quilling stud earrings are an elegant option for a woman who loves to show her eco-consciousness while also embracing the beauty of nature.
This set of a glazed red rose pendant and corresponding earrings features an exquisitely sculpted flower with 24 karat gold trim. It would make an ideal gift for a bridesmaid or any female who cherishes delicate elegance.
Using the same basic shapes that most quillers use, this simple pattern combines teardrop ring coil trios and domed tight coils. The smaller silver-edge ivory design uses two sets of three teardrop ring coils whereas the gold-edge blue version has four sets. These earrings are finished with plastic safety backs and can be converted to clip on earrings or ultra-hypoallergenic niobium hooks for sensitive ears.
Paper Quilled Ring
Quilling is a great craft for a beginner. It requires just a few supplies and can be completed quickly. Using a slotted quilling tool and a variety of colors, the craftsman can create fun fashion jewelry.
To make the interior honeycomb design of this earring, take two pieces of primary colored paper and glue one end of each to itself. Then take a piece of secondary paper and wrap it around the first paper circle outline, pinching one end to form a teardrop shape.
Repeat this process to complete the design. Glue each teardrop to the other and let dry. Then use a small jump ring to attach the earring hardware. You can also use a dangle hook to hang your earrings on a necklace chain.
