Quilling Paper

Two days ago while at JoAnn Fabrics to pick up something for my mom I came across this book in the checkout line:

Joann Fabrics

The Book of Paper Quilling. I started thumbing through it and was intrigued by the images in the book. All from cut strips of paper rolled between your fingers or by using a tool to create images. The art of creating intricate shapes from strips of paper.

 What do you think? I love the shapes and the bright colors. Are you inspired to give it a try? Do you have the patience to roll the papers, glue them and arrange into works of art?
