Decorative Passover plate: paper quilling on an old CD

Decorative Passover Seder plate

This is a decorative Passover Seder plate. This year Passover is celebrated between the 9th and 15th of April. During the first night of Passover, which is called Seder, six items of symbolic foods are placed on a Seder plate (a real one, not decorative). The name of each item is written on one of the six cups of the plate. My plate is made out of an old CD and decorated with paper filigree. The center of the CD is covered with a piece of paper. I'm not sure the photo conveys this, but the plate looks very much like silver. I must say, the rolling itself didn't take much time, but I spent a lot of energy on painting every single strip with silver paint :) Besides, gluing quilling shapes onto a CD is not so easy, since even a tiny blob is clearly seen on its surface.


I put the "plate" into a transparent CD case (with the center removed), and it seems to make a cute and creative gift this way.

Hope you found this useful. I'd like also to wish Chag Sameach to everybody who is celebrating.

Quilling Letter L - Cut Coil Flowers

A friend and I were beading necklaces one day and she suggested I arrange the beads randomly. For my organized brain, that sounded like blasphemy, but I gave it a try and happily realized it was perfectly imperfect. Since then I've embraced randomness wherever I can. My latest video shows a technique that I call "Cut Coil Flowers", because they are formed by cutting a coil apart. The resulting petals vary in size, resulting in random flower petals. They are surprisingly fast to make. Even though the letter L was enlarged 150%, it still allowed for a large showy area on my 6x6 card.  Download the template here. My new PDF e-book,   Quilling Letters  is available in my Etsy shop.  Every side and curve of the 26 letters of the alphabet is pre-measured – j ust lay your strip on top of my patterns, score, snip, fold, and glue.
