Paper art comes in many shapes and forms, but many people who enjoy exploring this art form see nature as their main source of inspiration. Manuela Koosch of Paper to Petal is one of them, and she’ll rock your world with her quirky and unique botanical paper art.
Koosch attracted over 22,000 Instagram followers since embarking on her creative journey, and it turns out it was all a happy accident. She discovered the art of paper quilling while looking for origami tutorials online, and that was the beginning of a magical journey.
Koosch initially dismissed the idea of giving it a try because it looked extremely time-consuming. She couldn’t imagine herself spending infinite hours making paper flowers, but she couldn’t let go of the idea and decided to give it a shot.
Koosch is a self-thought artist, and she’s committed to helping others discover the magic of paper quilling. In addition to posting her creations on Instagram and selling them on Etsy, she also shares useful tips about this technique on her blog and YouTube channel.
“Everything I know about this type of paper craft I learned from the internet. The quilling community is full of wonderful and incredibly talented people, and new ideas spread like fire… I love being a part of this,” Koosh told All Things Paper.
