A collection of objects made with paper, rolled on a quill. Think beautiful, quirky, pretty earrings, pendants, accessories and magnetic photo frames. Yes, it's paper! Each Quillkaari product is made by rolling thin paper strips tightly on a quilling tool, and protected with superstrong glue and acrylic varnish for durability. How do you make paper durable enough to wear? Each Quillkaari product i
s first put together with superstrong glue (the kind them carpenters stuck your dining chair with). After drying, it goes through three layers of brush-on as well as spray-on adhesive varnish, which makes the paper stiff and lightly lacquered. How do I pay for my purchases? Select the pieces you want (they all have names!), and email me a list at [email protected]. I will send you the total costs and my account number, to which you can make a bank transfer or deposit a cheque. What are the shipping charges? How soon can I have my stuff? Rs. 30 to 100 by courier (deliveries in India). The amount may vary accornding to the quantity of your purchase and your location. International packages are sent via worldnetexpress (Rs. 994, delivered within 5 days to US/ UK/ Canada, online tracking system available). Since Quillkaari goodies are lightweight, upto 10-25 products can be shipped within this rate. So if you know anyone else who's interested in ordering, it's always a good idea to pool orders into the same package to save on shipping costs. All Quillkaari products are made to order, so please allow 3 to 5 days for making (it takes 3 days just for the varnish to dry!) and another 3 to 5 days for the shipment to reach. And, erm, you are? A dancer, an ex-journno, a woman who loves making things with her hands (and owns an earring collection large and mad enough to be included in her will), a shopaholic. Quillkaari is a collection of objects that I make because I can't find them in a shop!
