Greetings Cecelia, thank you so much for these great tips. I found them on Pinterest and then came over to my UA-cam App to view your channel and add it to my subscriptions.. my favorite tip you had was on applying glue to the curly cues .I was just dealing with some of those tornado issues this morning on a piece I was working on. Also it was a nice affirmation to see the glue that you use. In addition to your tip about the shot glass I also cut a sponge into a small triangle dampen it and put the sharp tip down .I then put a couple of sewing pins with the round head on them so that I can open up my Glue bottle tip occasionally. Thank you again and I look forward to checking out some of your other posts.
Welcome to my channel Marjorie! Thanks so much for letting me know how my tutorial is helping you, and how you found me. It's a wonderful feeling to know my thoughts and tutorials are having an impact. I look forward to seeing your work one day!
Cecelia
I really love to do paper quilting but I don't have a paper quilling machine to cut papers so thin like this way can I know how to cut paper pieces so thin..
@@dahamikoralegedara1238 I buy them pre-cut, I hope you found some!
I'm new to quilling and I can see where this extremely well-done video will save me a lot of grief. Thank you for your time, talent and willingness to share what you know.
Welcome to the world of quilling Eileen! I'm so happy you found my channel and that my tips are helpful to you! Happy quilling!
Oh the tissue in the glass to keep tip moist. That is a million dollar tip. Thank you.
You are so welcome! Simple things are the best, right?
Holy smokes I feel like I just learned from a pro!! I'm just starting out with quilling but I'm obsessed already. Cant wait to try these tips!
Yes!!! Obsessed is a great state to be in Krystin! LOL! So glad my tips can be helpful to you. I also have many free downloads on my blog, made just for newbies.
Kitna patience hota hai logon mei😱😱😱,i tore every design,kicked chart papers And ran away!
I haven’t started yet and i feel like screaming already. You need to be a zen masters or something to accomplish anything with this😅
Two days ago we didn't know what Quilling was. A friend sent my wife a card with a quilling design and my wife was hooked. We have watched over ten of your videos. You have one of the most professional YT channels I've ever seen. Straight and to the point and the production values are excellent. Liked and Subscribed.
Thank you SO much Idahoan!!! I’m thrilled to hear you’re both hooked on quilling. I’m so grateful to have your kind words give me a smile and a boost today! 😄
Cecilia, you are so thoughtful about your training. You do a very good job of explaining with just the right amount of words. So clear! Gives me confidence that I can learn to be a good quiller...i am just starting. Thanks!
Hello Suzi, welcome to quilling!!! You are so kind! Thank YOU for making my day and for giving me more energy to keep making more tutorials - you've made all my efforts worth it!!!
Cecelia, you have totally renewed my quilling energy! I have paper strips at least 15 years old that have just been stashed in a closet. If only I had seen your very helpful tips then!
Thank you!!!
I’m happy to hear you’re inspired to dig out those supplies and play Laura! Have fun!
Love the idea of the handle on the thin card. Every time I watch your video, I learn something new Cecelia !
Heehee thanks Vineetha! I feel like the Easter Bunny, putting as prizes in every video!
Love that idea for storing the glue upside down in a shot glass, must try that. Thanks for all the expert tips, quilling is somehting I plan to get into more this year and you are an inspiration!
Thanks for your kind words Annie! I love this kind of new year's resolutions - fun! I find the upside down glue saves me time and effort. Let me know how it goes for you too.
Cecelia
I just completed my first project and I fully enjoyed it. Thanks for the glue tips. I'm in lockdown and needed an activity. I don't have the tools but I had paper and a guillotine. It came out great.
That’s wonderful Nechole777!!! So happy to hear you’re off to a great start! Here’s a video I made specifically for anyone without tools:

This is so helpful. I just started quilling in December and I'm obsessed already! These glue tips will make my next project so much cleaner. Thank you.
I'm so glad to hear that Brenda! Welcome to quilling!
I do love your videos! I have learned so much from them. Especially about using glue and making outlines to be filled in! Please keep up the good work and thank you so much for sharing.
Yay! I’m so happy to hear they’re helpful! Thanks for being following me Sharon!
Thank you Cecelia for these great tips. I have just found out that even tho Ontario is starting to open up, I will not be working until September... Sooo new craft to try and master. I am sure a lot of people have taken to quilling in the "lock down" as it is a fun way to keep your hands busy making coils while binge watching. As someone who could never do needlework, quilling was calling my name. You gluing tips are pure gold. It looks so easy to use that little precision glue bottle, but so frustrating as it clogs. Keep making those videos! Also... Saw your store on Etsy... Love, love, love the succulent cards. Will definitely be ordering to tackle when my skills are up to it!
Hi Sandra, that's great I was able to give you a proactive way to spend your lock down time. It's kind of a toss up for me, since I really enjoy focusing on my craft table.
I keep my fine tip bottle unclogged by inserting a stainless steel pin into the nozzle. If it's not stainless steel, the moisture from the glue will rust inside the nozzle.
Thank you so much for your kind words of encouragement! I have many free resources and templates for new quillers on my blog. Just remember that each project to do will keep adding to your skills - don't give up!
Thank you Cecelia- I am new at Quilling and the gluing thing has been a pain. I will follow your advice and I am happy I subscribed to your videos, they are so helpful.
Welcome to quilling Becky! I hope you have as much enjoyment from it as I have. I’m thrilled to have you as a subscriber and to hear my videos are helpful - you’ve totally made my day! ☺️
Thank you for all your videos. Can't wait to see them all. Thanks a million again. Your videos more than helpful 😍😍😍
Thank you for your kind words Safa! I'm looking forward to hearing what you think of each and every one of them! 😊
Thank you so much for your advice!!!!! You solved all my troubles 😊 and I admire your very smart and clever thinking, and resourcefulness! Amazing delivering, highly comprehensive, and perfect view of what you do. Definitely talented making educational videos!
Yay! I’m so happy to read this - thanks for making my day Stephani! I have lots of free resources on my website too. Have fun quilling!
I'm going to give quilling a try tomorrow. So very happy I found your utube. Great info. Thank you!
Yay! I’m so happy you found me too Jan, and that I’ve inspired you to give quilling a try! Can’t wait to see what you make!
Hello! I am new to quilling and your video helped me soo much I just bought it and I was exhausted as I didn't know how to craft and stuff but your video came in like a Miracle!
Thanking you,
Binte Yasir
You are so welcome Binte! I’m so happy my tutorial helped you. Welcome to quilling!
Just fixing to get started quilling and love these tips! TFS!
Welcome to quilling Tammy! I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. Happy to hear my tutorial was helpful!
Wonderful! I have never made any mistakes while quilling. Ever. That may sound tough to believe, but it's not when I confess that I've never quilled before. You obviously have a great deal of experience, and you are generous to share it with us. I plan to watch all your videos before I order my supplies--and refer to them often as I craft my projects. Thanks!
LOL I love it when I have a mistake free streak! But I must also confess that I learn so much from all my many, many mistakes. Thank you for your kind words and I wish you well on your quilling journey!
Another grreat video from you !! Thanks for sharing :) I`m always learning with you !!
Hey Arlene - I look forward to hearing your response each time! 😀 I'm happy I still have a few tricks up my sleeve to show you.
This is the first vid of yours which I've seen but I love your practical, creative ideas and process has be excited to look through your other vids!
Welcome to my channel Vara - thanks so much for watching! I hope the rest of my tutorials are just as helpful to you! Thanks so much for leaving me a comment - I love hearing that my ideas are inspiring. Thanks for giving me a big smile today! 😊

All simple, practical, and brilliant! Thanks!
YAY! I'm thrilled to hear that Pc Brown!
Thank you bunches for the gluing tips....very informative.
You're very welcome Curtrice! I'm so glad my tutorial was helpful!
These tips really helped. I’m impressed with all of these people who are into quilling. I felt like I had some weird secret little craft that I was ashamed of 😂 but now I know I’m not alone.
🤣 LOL you have definitely found your group of people who are into quilling Mechelle! I felt the same way and didn’t start a UA-cam channel for years because I thought no one would want to hear what was going on in my head!!! So glad my tips are helpful!
I use a plastic tub lid for things like a glue work surface and a spreader. Some tub lids also have a matte side to them.
That’s great to hear you have your favourite tool for glue too - thanks for sharing!
Wow you are truly gifted.you explain it so well .keep it up with your awesome work🇿🇦🇿🇦🇿🇦🌸🌹🌺🌿🌵🎄🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟✈️✈️✈️💖💖💖📢📢📢
Aw, thank you so much Goolam! This made me so happy to read!!!
Have you been quilling for a long time or are you new to quilling?
Cecelia
Hi Cecilia im just new to your channel and i really learn a lot things and tips from you about quilling.. hoping for more 😊😊 waiving here from Philippines 🙋🏻♀️
Kamusta from Canada! Welcome to quilling and to my channel Joanna. I'm so happy to hear you're inspired by my tutorials. Salamat for watching!
Thank you for this video. It has so many useful tips. I found your channel on my own but I found this tutorial on Ann Martin's blog. Again, thank you so much!
I’m happy you enjoyed my tutorial. Happy quilling!
Good idea!! I’ll try them all!! Thank you!!
Great! I’d love to hear how it goes for you Sumire!
Thank you for this video. All of your products and videos are so helpful! I purchased your quilling letter book on Etsy after seeing a video and then I came across this video and I am blown away! Everything that you have is so helpful! Thank you so much!
Thank you so much for making my day and giving me a smile Karie! 😁 thank you so much for buying my book! I’m thrilled to have made some tutorials that are helpful to you! Please feel free to ask me anything I might be missing in my channel! Happy quilling to you!
@@PaperZenCeceliaLouie I am working on a quilling piece and I have dried glue that I can see on the paper. How can I remove just the glue and not the quilling paper as well?
Unfortunately I don’t know of any easy way to remove glue that is on your work surface without damaging it. That’s why all my tips are aimed at avoiding glue touching the surface as much as possible. Even a small brushing of it can leave a noticeable mark.
I know this video is older, but I am thinking about quilling. So this was really helpful. I’m going o check out your previous videos as well. Thank you.
I'm glad my glue tutorial was helpful Shannon! I hope my other tutorials are helpful too - I look forward to seeing your there!
Awesome thanks for the tips! I can’t wait to have a go 😁
Hope you enjoy it!
Hello! My name is also Cecilia. I loved this video and it has rekindled my interest to pick up quilling again. A trick that I use when confronted with a stopped up nozzle is to soak the cap in very hot water. The heat thins the glue and frees up the blockage.
Nice to meet you Cecilia! I'm so pleased to hear you're inspired to start quilling again. Yes, you're right - that's a great way of unclogging a glue nozzle - thanks for sharing!
Thank you soo much for these tips it really helps me a lot on my quillings there very helpful
That’s wonderful to hear! I’m so glad my methods were helpful in your quilling. Have you been quilling long?
New subscriber here! I can't believe I've only found out about you now! All of your tips are so good! Thank you so much!
So happy to hear you’re enjoying my tutorials Goodie Blanker! Thank you for your kind words of encouragement and subscribing!!
wow! thanks a lot for these tips. and i got something as well - use expired debit/credit cards back side for the gue!!! i used to wonder wht to do expired cards nd now i got the perfect solution!!! thanks a lott!
Yay! I’m happy to hear my tips are helpful Tia - thanks for letting me know! 😄
Great tips! Thank you so much.
You’re very welcome - I’m happy to hear that! 😄
Thank you, that's really helpful. ❤
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you for the tips cecelia
You’re very welcome Yogesh! Are you new to quilling?
Ahhh your videos are helping me SO much, thank you!!! My next project will be 100x better than the one I’m halfway through. Thanks again 🙂
Wooooohoooooo!!!! Thank you so much for letting me know! You’ve given me a huge smile today!!!
Awesome, that makes two of us🙂. I’ve just recently pulled my quilling out of retirement lol and am pretty rusty. I’ve been searching for YT videos that work for me, I’m pretty picky so when I found your channel I hit the jackpot. I look forward to seeing the rest, thanks again.
Aw, thank you so much!!! I love hearing how I’ve inspired someone to give my ideas a try, regardless of how long they’ve been at it, away from it, or new at it! Happy quilling! I hope I can see your work one day!
Super great video, love the smearing of the glue and also the wet pad under the glue bottle!
So awesome to read this - thank you so much for taking the time and letting me know what tip you liked most Sandra! ☺
I love all your tips! So helpful! Thank you! I taught myself to quill when I was a young girl. Now at 48 I'm getting back into it and it's amazing to see how much this craft has grown! It's my new obsession! Lol.
That’s wonderful you’ve rediscovered quilling again. It’s by far the least expensive craft I’ve ever tried, yet gives so much back in return. Have fun quilling!
Amazing video! The thing I found most helpful was you making the “mistakes” and showing how to correct/undo them. Most videos I’ve seen simply tell you what they do, and it’s not very helpful to me-I’m often confused by parts of what they’re trying to explain. I’m very new to quilling and I hadn’t ever seen the glue spreading tips or the way you removed your paper.
I’m thrilled to hear you enjoyed my tutorial Tammy! Welcome to the world of quilling! I hoe you find as much joy as I have. Thank you for giving me a huge smile today!
Very helpful. Thank you 😊
You are so welcome!
Hey Cecelia, thanks for another video full of useful tips to learn - hopefully my next quilling pieces won't be full of glue smudges! :D
Hi Alwynka, thanks so much! I'm happy to hear that you're enjoying my tutorials!
You can get plastic squares at the hardware normally used for edging cyllicone on bathroom sinks/shower etc, the quiet cheap
Great idea!
I like "Art Glitter Glue". It is the same consistency as Alenes Tacky Glue but does not leave the shine when dry. I have been using it for years. I first discovered it watching MayMayMadeIt videos. I will need to add plastic cards to my craft kit. I have been using post-it notes as suggested by Quilled Creations videos. I am addicted to these craft videos on UA-cam as they have taught me so much and have advanced my skills.
Fascinating! A new glue for me to explore!!! Thank you for sharing that Rochelle. I watched her video about it and I'm itching to try it out. It's going to take me a long time to finish my bottle of Aleene's, but it's sitting in my shopping cart now - ahem... all in the name of research, of course.
Post-it notes work too, but with plastic cards, I don't have any waste at all.
THANK YOU for totally making my day with your kind words!!!
Very helpful. Thank you
You're welcome!☺️
Great tips! Thanks...
You’re very welcome!
Fantastic first video for me. I've got all, or most, of the equipment and have been interested in this craft for YEARS! I've just never bitten the bullet. I don't know why? But this week I've decided to research and begin a project or practice. Thank you. If anyone had ideas and tips for a complete notice I'd appreciate your time. 😁😘
Welcome to quilling Mia! I’m happy to hear you’re going to dive in now - there’s nothing to be worried about because it’s just paper fun. I have made a video for you to learn basic shapes here:

I'm a beginning quiller and these are very useful tips. Lucky me--I happen to have an Oyster Card that I got 3 years ago in London :-)
Welcome to quilling 6falconsue! I’m happy to hear these tips helped out. You’re set now! I ❤️ London!
Very helpful. Love it
I’m happy to hear my tips helped you! ☺️
She makes really good tips
Thank you!
I'm so glad i found this video before starting gluing my work 😭
I’m glad you found it to Karina!
Thank You!
You're welcome!
I am self taught at many different arts and crafts over the years. When I acquire a new interest I scourge the internet for every tidbit i can find about it. I spend hours researching tools to buy/supplies and reviews. I find every free tutorial or blog i can about it online. Then i head over to youtube to watch 5 different videos of the same step, just so I know all the available techniques people have invented.
I picked up paper quilling about 8 years ago. I've picked it up for a few projects here and there through the years. There are two things that go wrong which discourage me.
First is multiple layer swirls. The swirl looks great but the end where it's all glued together never ever curls right and doesn't look smooth. The second are these exact glue issues. I though these problems weren't even problems because no information to fix them is out there. I figured it's just one of the more difficult parts of the craft we have to live with!
I almost passed by this video tutorial. When you have been around a craft for a few years all those videos on a subject "10 beginner must knows" etc are all the same. You hear the same tips over and over. You hear the same solutions over and over. I have no idea why I clicked on this video that i automatically assumed i'd already heard some version of but i'm so elated that I did.
I just junked a project i'd spent quite a few hours on because of glue issues. I can't imagine how much heartache frustration and and wasted time you saved me! And you've inspired me to write my first you tube comment ever.
Maybe I'll actually accomplish more project without having to start them over from scratch!
I can't believe i've never heard this info in all the tons of sites i've visited and videos i've watched. You are the queen of Paper!
I subscribed and now i'll head over and see what other magical knowledge you posses.
Wow! Just wow! You are the winner of the longest comment I’ve ever received Dawn! Thank you so much for giving me a huge smile today! It’s for people like you that I have spent so many hours learning how to video tape myself, getting past my shyness, and sharing my knowledge so others can be inspired. You make all my efforts worth it!!! I can’t wait to see which other video of mine warrants your comment #2! 😂
I just came across your tips from Pinterest n then I got your video link from your blog... Really a great video my dear.. I always wonder about gluing these curls n it is way difficult to treat some issues n you have given sooperbbb ideas on how to tackle with them.... Thannqqqq sooooo muchhhh for the video... N here am your new subscriber... I can learn way more from your previous videos... 😍😍😍😁😁💐💐💐
Yay! Thrilled to hear my video of tips was helpful to you Gouthami. Have you been quilling long?

@@kjmcarl4257 LOL awesome! Welcome to the world of quilling - I hope you have as much enjoyment from it as I do!

I have never quilled before, but I have tools, paper, and patterns coming today. I am excited. My tip for glue - any craft glue: is to use Vaseline or petroleum jelly on the threads of your glue bottle so the lids don't stick when you pour out glue. Something I always do with glue and Mod Podge.
Welcome to quilling Debbee! Oh I've never tried using that before. I don't really have the problem of my lids sticking - perhaps because I do regularly clean the thread before capping the lid back on. Have fun quilling!
@@PaperZenCeceliaLouie thank you! I do so many different crafts and so my threads would get messed up, so Vaseline works well for me. I see doing this quilling I will need to be very careful and keep the little bottle needs to be cleaned. Do you put a straight pin in the tiny bottles to keep it clear?
@@dlwcrazyblondeone Yes, I use a map pin which just happened to be in my drawers at the time. I had no idea it would work so well for me but I didn't link the pin that came with the bottle. It was very thin and it got bent easily. I didn't know some pins can rust easily, but it's never happened with my map pin yet and I've used that for over a decade.
@@PaperZenCeceliaLouie thank you. I just ordered a basic kit and the bottle did not have a pin or anything in it. I will use a straight pin. I think map pins would be a bit thicker and would be ideal.
Oh the bottle didn't come with a pin? Hmm, I wonder how they expect it not to dry out then. Which brand did you buy, if you don't mind my asking? I'm always curious what's out there, since I have only just bought things around my local stores. Plus, so many people ask me what I'd recommend, and since I haven't bought much, I just don't know what to say! 🤔
thank you for the great tips :)
You’re very welcome A.S. Are you new to quilling?
yes Im new to quilling. I also want to share my work in youtube soon
Welcome to the world of quilling! Congrats on starting a channel!
Thank you!!!
You’re welcome JenniFern! Did you try it? Did it work?
BTW, the clear acrylic nail polish idea came to me when I saw your "glass" with the cotton ball in it because I thought that's what it was until you told us it was a completely different "apparatus." Thanks, again.
LOL! thanks for sharing Curtrice! Happy quilling!
Thank you so much... ❤❤❤❤❤❤
You're very welcome Sabina! Are you new to quilling?
Very helpful
Glad to hear that Jo! Are you new to quilling?
A should try ...here some cereals come in bags that are silver inside... when cut into strips give some work a really pretty shine.. although harder to glue down they can be really worth the work
Oh that must be so pretty Traceylee! Thanks for sharing that idea!
Hi
Thank you very much for making this video
When 1 did my first quilling project,it was so awful and now i saw your video i had an idea for it
Hi Ljoe, I’m happy to hear it was so helpful to you! We are all learning all the time so don’t worry - you are doing everything g we all did in the beginning.
Btw @@PaperZenCeceliaLouie thank you for commenting on my comment,cause you're the first youtuber who commented on my comment
@@ljoe_0669 Oh my gosh! Really?? I'm surprised by that, and I'm so pleased to be your first responder!!! Even though I have been sharing on UA-cam for some time, I honestly still feel very new at it because I am an introvert, so it took over 10 years to have the courage to start sharing my ideas. It is people like YOU, who tell me what it means to them, how I can help them, that make me feel brave enough to keep going. So thank YOU Ljoe_06 - you have given me a huge smile today!!! I'm here if you have any more questions!
@@PaperZenCeceliaLouie yeah thanks a lot

Good tips
Thank you so much! ☺️
Love the points, and I am have way on the video to comment (couldn't wait to text). This is full of wonderful points, and I am sorry that I said myself that I will watch this video later (lazy me). I should have watched it much earlier
LOL! That's awesome to hear Agnes Crafts! Thanks so much for your kind comments! 😄
Wonderful
Happy to hear my tutorial was helpful!
Hi! Ur videos have been so helpful! Thanks! What are all of the patterns/tutorials that u sell? I’m very interested!
Hi Alexandra, I'm so happy to hear that! Have you been quilling long or are you a beginner? Here is a link to my Etsy shop:
www.etsy.com/ca/shop/PaperZenShop?ref=shopinfo_shophome_leftnav
A friend introduced me a few months ago to the wonderful world of Pinterest and how I can make my own lists. We came across the art of quilling. I have a quilled (is that a proper term?) card a dear friend gave me with a hummingbird, since I am wild about that lovely bird, with a flower. Since seeing thatcard I did not know the name of the art nor anything about it. Today I received first two Quilling books and got on UA-cam to see what I could find. I watched a 3 minute vid by another lady and then I saw this one. I am excited to see other videos and learn how to avoid beginner mistakes. I know I will have a learning curve but just watching your gives me confidence I can do this. I am not a novice at crafting so I know I can make beautiful pictures. I just subscribed to your channel. I want to find out about quilling tools, paper and cut my own paper if it is fairly easy to do. Does it save money to cut my own?
Welcome to the world of quilling Frances! I hope you find quilling as rewarding as I do. Yes, a quilled card is the proper term, and I'm so happy to hear you're enjoying my tutorials and tips - thanks so much for watching and subscribing. We're all learning, all the time, including me!
Although you can save money by cutting your own strips, conventional quilling paper is quite inexpensive, so you'd save time by buying it. However, I have an electric cutting machine (Silhouette SD, and now a Cricut Explore), so it's easier to cut by hand. I prefer to cut my own because I want thicker paper. Here's a video explaining more:

Have fun on your quilling journey!
This is amazing. Thank you! I noticed your glue bottle has a different tip on it that reminds me of a mechanical pencil. Did you buy it this way or make it? I hate the tip these bottles normally use as they come loose.
Thank you Katie - I'm glad my tutorials are helpful. I bought my glue bottle over a decade ago at Michaels in Canada, but have never seen it since. Oh that's awful to hear the tip comes loose. Which brand did you buy that came loose?
Thank you..
You’re welcome!
thank you so much!! 😍
You’re very welcome ☺️! Are you new to quilling?
@@PaperZenCeceliaLouie umm.... I started this art in 2018. And, i made keychains, cards and more things. But, i stopped all because of my studies. And, i started again in this week and searched about paper quilling websites and i found your one. This video really helps me a lot. Thank you so much!! Again and again!! You are a great person!! I wish you all the best for everything you gonna do!! 😀
@@chanchimmy5368 That's great you found quilling fun and came back to it when you had the chance. Quilling will always be waiting for us when we're ready. I'm so happy to hear my video was helpful, and thank you so much for your well wishes! 😊 Right back at you - best wishes for your studies and quilling!
@@PaperZenCeceliaLouie (´▽`ʃ♡ƪ)
My tip is to let the glue dry for afew seconds before apply it on the surface, the strips will stick easly , thank you sooo much that was very helpful
Glad you enjoyed the tutorial Rinka! What brand of glue do you prefer?
@@PaperZenCeceliaLouie basic white glue that kids use for craft
Hello!
I was at a quilling workshop and we made a picture with flowers. at the end we coated it with varnish. I didn't like it the most, because I thought it looked better without the varnish. Can you tell me if this is really necessary or not. Thank you very much for the answer and of course for all the videos in which you nicely guide beginners through the initial problems.
You are the artist and you get to decide what looks better or not. So if you don’t like it, skip it.
Thank u
You’re very welcome!
I am new to quilling and wondered if you or anyone on here could help me on what is the best type of glue to use. I just tried one of my glues I had on hand at home here. It is called "The Rubber Café Scrap Happy Sheer Glue" this is for scrapbooking and card making, but it is definitely showing under my quilling pieces. I tried applying with a toothpick (lightly), then tried the dipping method (NOT a good idea! LOL!), I also tried applying from the bottle itself with a very light squeeze of glue ( and sometimes not so light! Again...., I am just a beginner). But I definitely must be not doing this correctly as even though it dries clear....., it doesn't look real professional. I sure am open to learning and look forward to any input you all can offer! I love the look of the quilled flowers and would really like to add this to my crafting projects! Thank you!
Welcome to the world of quilling Colleen! I hope you have as much enjoyment from quilling as I do. My favorite glue is Aleene's Original Tacky Glue (Amazon Affiliate Link: amzn.to/2i9qA9u)
I would definitely suggest smearing the glue puddle as I show in my video to make it thinner before dipping. This will make the dipped edges extremely shallow and won't show as much on your work surface. Hope that helps you!

Hi there, thank you for sharing your tips. I was wondering how you deal with glue smears on black board? It is so difficult to put the pieces correctly the first time and then the shiny smears are extremely visible on black.
Hi Annelie, it can definitely be a challenge to apply your pieces correctly the first time, which results in glue marks on your surface. Obviously smaller shapes with non-moving parts are easiest, like a marquise or simple coil. I find S-scrolls with long arcing parts which have no defined outer shapes are the hardest. It's almost like you need 8 arms like an octopus!
To answer your question, unfortunately, there isn't a way to remove the glue smears from your surface and it's especially noticeable on a black board. The best way to minimize it is to apply your shape with great care the first time. Here's how I do that:
When I'm dealing with jiggly pieces, I sometimes use two tweezers, so one hand applies one end first, while the 2nd hand stays up in the air, keeping the other end away from my surface. Then I can slowly apply the rest.
Another way is to only apply glue on one half of my piece, then apply. Then lift the remaining half, dip in glue (from your thin plastic card) and then apply the last half to your surface.
This was a great question, and maybe one day I'll make another video showing the above - thanks for asking Annelie! I hope my tips help you and please keep asking more questions!
Happy quilling to you!
Cecelia
Really helpful thank you so much for sharing
That makes me so happy to hear! Thanks Claire! Have you been quilling long or are you new to quilling?
Sorry I am not very good with technology. I have been quilling for about 6 months now I love it. It is so helpful people like yourself help other people like me it very kind of you to share your help and advice thank you so much
@@claireslaughter9569 Welcome to the world of quilling Claire! That's wonderful to hear that you love it as much as I do!
Thank you ever so much. I would not be quilling at all if people like yourself did not share their help and advice . Happy quilling
@@claireslaughter9569 You're so sweet - thank you! It makes me happy to share my experience. Happy quilling to you. I look forward to seeing your work one day!
Your video is excellent... How I wish I would have seen it before... I have a question is there anything u can do to remove the extra glue that reflects on the finished work. Thank you in advance
Thank you Sylvia! I'm happy to hear my tutorial was helpful to you! Unfortunately, it's quite difficult to remove glue that is already stuck to your work surface because it's likely bonded to the paper fibers already. That's why I simply try my best to avoid letting it show in the first place. Good luck!
LOVE your videos. Thanks so much. A question: sometimes my quilled circles will not open up. Is there a way to open them when this happens?
Thanks Nadia! It could be an issue with your tension. Here's a video showing how to loosen up your coils. Skip to 6:52 in the video ua-cam.com/video/4TXlHFO5tDM/v-deo.html
I found the video helpful, as I do all your video. I have tried making them really loosely from the beginning but that doesn't often make much of a difference. Other times I have no problem. I'll try rewinding with my fingers.@@PaperZenCeceliaLouie
That's great to hear Nadia! Here is another that shows more examples of how I loosen basic shapes. I think it shows the differences better: ua-cam.com/video/nsLHD7r60Pw/v-deo.html
A good informative video. A new person to this. I want to make some name ornaments for christmas as gifts. What is the best surface to do the quilling on....Card stock? Thank you in advance.
Welcome to quilling Lorraine! I'm happy to hear you found my tutorial helpful. Yes, I prefer to apply my quilling onto card stock to ensure it doesn't warp, but everyone has their own preferences.
Just wondering ... Have you ever tried using clear acrylic nail polish for the "glu"? Do you think that would work out and hold the project together in the long-run? Thanks for any info.
No, I've never tried using nail polish instead of glue - I guess because glue is cheaper than nail polish, and I don't like the fumes from nail polish. All the different brands of glue I've used throughout the years have lasted in my quilling, so I'm pretty happy using glue.
may i know what is the paper or board that the quilling art are glued onto?
and at time 7:16 what are those things that you holding i dont understand them..
so tacky glue are the glue that you are using?
thank
I am using 80 lb card stock. It's nothing special, just something thick is enough to prevent warping.
At 7:16, I am showing a Fine Tip Glue Bottle (Amazon Affiliate link): amzn.to/2BbfZ8L
I use that to apply a very tiny dot of glue on my quilling strip coils to glue them down. I store the bottle of glue upside down in a shot glass with a damp tissue at the bottom. This prevents the glue from drying in the nozzle.
Yes, I like using Aleene's Tacky Glue. Here is a link to the tools I use:

You're very welcome! I'm glad my tutorial helped you!
Dear cecelia,
My precious quilling teacher! I cannot thank you enough for this valuable information.
Can I get your opinion on a problem I have encountered?
While applying glue to the quilling strips, unavoidably, too much glue remains on the strips, and these excess glue foams from the edges of the strips on the background paper.
How can we remove these adhesives that remain bright on the visible parts after the adhesive has dried completely?
Thank you for info.
"Health your hands!"
Hi Mehmet, unfortunately after the glue has dried it’s very hard to remove. I suggest simply using less glue before gluing your strip to the surface, as I show by smearing the glue puddle flatter.
@@PaperZenCeceliaLouie Thank you..
Hi, the glue bottle in your link isn't the same as the one you use in the videos. Do you have a link for that one please? I have the others, but yours looks more robust. if I have to squeeze a bit harder on the bottle I find the metal tip can shoot off, splurging glue all over!
Hello Anne, the bottle I use was purchased from Michael's in Canada many years ago. When I went back for more, I could never find it again, no matter how many times I looked. You're right, my original one is threaded, so it won't come off, but I have sheared off the plastic nozzle part too.
A reader told me the Darice bottles were similar, so that's the closest bottle I could find and link to: amzn.to/2XWdvFd
The Darice nozzle is not threaded, but I'm still able to squeeze out Aleene's glue from it, and that was confirmed by another commenter.
What brand of bottle and glue are you using? If it is Darice, I wonder if they changed their nozzles?
What is the best way to attach two strips together to make a longer strip? when i do it, i feel like the seam sticks out a lot or is very noticeable. Do you have any tips?
I place the strip on its edge and use the flat table surface to help me line it up before I attach the ends.
@Paper Zen - Cecelia Louie Maybe im not giving the glue enough time to dry, Thank you!!
