Do you know that the name paper quilling is derived from the word ‘quill’, which refers to the hollow and pointed end of a bird’s feather? In ancient times, artisans used these quills to roll, fold, and shape narrow stripes of paper because the sharp and fine tip of the feather helped create elegant and intricate designs. 

This technique is primarily believed to have originated in Egypt where tombs were observed  to be designed with wire in shapes similar to modern quilling. It is also believed that it originated with the invention of paper in China in 105 AD. In the 13th century, metal filigree was extensively used for decoration across countries.

However, paper quilling technique gained immense popularity in the Renaissance during the 15th century, when monks and nuns began using paper in place of precious material like metals and threads of gold and silver, believing it replicated the elegance of fine and intricate metal filigree. 

Moreover, paper quilling is a respected craft used in religious art. It was extensively used to design portraits, architectural designs for the alter, reliquaries, and even cabinets. In these artworks, quilled paper was mixed with colourful threads, metallic beads, and other decorative elements.  

Paper not only became a cheaper alternative but also increased the scope for creativity in the designs. By the 15th century, the craft had gained immense popularity among English women as a major pastime. 

Fast-forward to the 21st century, and paper quilling has adopted advanced techniques such as 3D modelling and husking. It is combined with painting and embroidery to design an extensive range of handcrafted art, from invitations to portraits!

Paper Quilling Tool and Quilling Paper

paper quilling tools

To begin with quilling, you would need some key tools: 

Quilling Needle: You will find this tool very handy for quilling. It has a small centre slot that helps in attaching the paper string to the roll quilling. Do not worry about whether your paper strips are wider because you can get this tool for various sizes of paper string. 

Point Tweezers: While quilling, you would require picking the narrow paper string, shaping it, and aligning it precisely into the desired shape. This is where point tweezers will be your saviour! 

Thread Snip or Clipper: This tool will be helpful whenever you need to cut the paper strips to the desired length. Of course, you can use scissors, but if you want precision, perfection, and efficiency in your artwork, a clipper has to be your go-to tool. 

White Glue: This water-based glue is perfect for sealing the quilled shapes and organising them effortlessly and effectively on the base. 

Quilling Paper: Of course, you need quilling paper. You can cut narrow strips of paper or buy quilling paper and kits, which can provide uniform-sized strips in a wide range of colours. 

Different sizes of quilled paper can be used for creating this handcraft. The artists at Stoned Santa usually prefer 2mm and 5mm sizes, however, it largely depends on the size and details required in the artwork.

But what is String Art? What are its origins, and how can we engage with this artistic wonder? Let’s untangle the story of the tangled strings!

What is String Art?

 

String Art

String art, also known as thread art, nail and string art, and even pin and thread art, is a craft in which coloured strings or threads are woven around nails or pins to create beautiful patterns, designs, motifs, and even calligraphy. 

Wondering what makes string art so exclusive? It is the way it weaves mathematical precision with artistic expression.

This handcrafted art is a beautiful display of complex visual form and linear elegance where you do not have to limit your ideas and creative insights. 

Explore the history of String art and how to make string art! 

What are the Origins for String Art?

History of String Art

Did you know that string art was originally invented to teach mathematics? In the 1800s, a mathematics teacher named Mary Everest Boole introduced ‘curve stitching’ to make mathematical concepts like geometry more accessible for her students. 

Moreover, in the 1960s, a French mathematician and engineer, Pierre Bezier, developed a curve formula, termed the Bezier Curve, which was used in designing the parts of Renault cars.

It also captivated the attention of artists and laid the foundation of intricate string mandalas by a designer from California, John Eichinger. Fascinating, isn’t it? 

Eichinger was the first to see creative expression in the Bezier Curve design, which included geometric patterns with strings and nails and laid the foundation of handcrafted string art.

What are the Benefits of String Art?

Benefits of String Art

Well, in addition to being an aesthetically pleasing handcraft, string art also has some key mental and emotional benefits. 

  • Improves Cognitive Skills in Children – String art is a highly effective and powerful educational tool that can help children develop a better understanding of mathematics and geometry, particularly symmetrical patterns, lines, points, and angles. 

It also helps turn the abstract principles of mathematics into tangible visual forms and develop a more robust foundation for advanced mathematics.

Engaging in planning, organising the nails, and weaving the strings around the nails helps stimulate the children’s motor skills, cognitive abilities, problem-solving, and analytical thinking capabilities. 

  • Therapeutic Benefits for Adults – String art has more to offer to adults too! If you are searching for a way for creative expression that offers mental solace, string art is for you. 

Yes! The rhythmic and repetitive weaving of the strings around the nails and stringing unique combinations of colours with concentration evoke a meditation state for the artists and can promote inner peace, pacify mental stress, and encourage mindfulness. 

This aspect of string art has made string art workshops very popular with several corporates organising them for their employees as a team engagement or recreational activity.

How to Make String Art?

Making String Art

String art is a simple craft that requires basic and crude tools for designing, such as a board, nails, hammers, pliers, glue, and strings. 

But do you know the best part of this craft? It is its versatility. You can generously experiment with the base material, such as a plain or painted board or board covered by velvet paper or cloth, or the colours and textures of the strings or threads. 

This freedom to let your creative ideas flow freely can be inspiring and empowering, making string art a unique and personal expression. 

Now that you have the material, just follow these steps: 

Step 1: Choose the design you want to create for string art 

Step 2: Clean, paint, polish, and smoothen the wooden board with sandpaper or cover it with cloth or paper. 

Step 3: Freely draw with your hands or use digital printouts of the image, calligraphy or pattern you want to design your string art. But, if you are not confident about your sketching, you can print the design on the paper or even use design templates. 

Step 4: Make the marks for positioning the nails outlining the image. But be cautious that the mark is made at an equal distance. Usually, 1.5cm is a suitable distance. 

Step 5: Place the paper with the design or template on the prepared board. You may even use temporary tape to keep the paper intact until you hammer the nails. 

Step 6: Carefully position the nails with a hammer on the marks made on the paper. Be mindful not to hit your fingers with the hammer, and be ready to devote time and concentration to this step. 

Step 7: After you have hammered all the nails, tear and remove the paper design or template.

Step 8: Create a small loop at the end of the string of your choice and tie a knot with glue. Hook this loop onto one of the nails on the board. 

Step 9: Now, gently and carefully start weaving the string back and forth around the hammered nails. Ensure the strings are tied neither loosely nor tightly, covering each nail. 

Step 10: Once the entire pattern is woven with the string, hook the string around the last nail through knots and glue. Cut the remaining string part neatly and cautiously when the glue is dry. 

Step 11: And…voila! Your string art craft is ready to enlighten your house’s dull walls and gloomy corners! 

Step 12: At Stoned Santa, the artists also hand paint funny captions and creative doodles to the string artwork, which makes it more appealing.

What Mistakes to Avoid While Crafting String Art?

Guide to String Art

Well…if you are new to this craft, we would also like to tell you about some dos and don’ts! 

  1. Use solid wood, particle board or plywood that is hard enough to secure the nails firmly. 

  2. Choose a board with at least adequate thickness so that the 1.25 cm of the nails can be hammered inside the board. 

  3. Avoid boards that might crack easily when nails are hammered. Do not use canvas or sunboard because they are not hard enough to hold the nails. 

  4. Begin string art with simple patterns, thick fonts and easy patterns. 

  5. Use nails sized 25 mm or 1 inch made of brass. Iron nails might become rusted over time. 

  6. Wide-headed nails are useful because they keep strings firm and do not let them come out.

How to Take Care of Your String Art Décor?

Are you worried about how to preserve the handcrafted beauty of string art boards and décor for long? Here are some useful tips you can follow: 

  1. Avoid placing the string art décor in direct sunlight. The brightly coloured threads might fade and lose their shine and firmness. 
  2. Use a feather duster or a soft brush to clean the surface of the string art décor gently and regularly. 
  3. Place your string art décor away from humidity or exposure to water, as these might weaken the threads and even cause the nails to rust. 

Enliven your favourite corners of your home or workplace with beautifully handcrafted string art décor without working about their longevity and fragility!
