Global Gifts is holding a Quilling Card Make and Take Event. All supplies are provided with a $15.00 fee and Fair Trade coffee samples and baked goods from the Women’s Bean Project will be available for tasting. Bring your friends and family to learn how to quill and take home your own quilling card.

Whether you have experience in quilling or not, all are welcome to participate. After a brief introduction to the art and history of quilling, choose from an assortment of card designs and a Global Gifts staff member will guide you as you create your own card. Feel free to make more than one and use your creation as a gift for your friends or to keep for yourself!

Quilling is the art of rolling, coiling, and shaping small strips of paper to create a three-dimensional design and has been practiced for centuries. Global Gifts is proud to carry handmade quilling cards by artisans from the Quilling Card organization based in Vietnam. Quilling Card employs over 100 local adult women quillers who receive fair wages and work in safe conditions. Today, Quilling Card has become a source of preserving and sharing this beautiful art form.

Global Gifts is a nonprofit organization with a retail marketplace in the Short North Arts District in Columbus. Our mission is to help support artisans in developing countries around the world by ensuring safe working conditions, gender equity, environmental sustainability, and a fair wage. Call (614) 621-1744 to reserve your spot today!
