Questions & Answers
Please accept my apologies, but we do not have any plastic quilling strips on hand. Maybe you'll enjoy this: B01M73FDFD (type this code into your search engine).
It appears that this item arrived and was quickly sold out. I placed my order over a month ago and have yet to receive any of the merchandise. Is there a chance that there will be more?
Selected User Reviews For JUYA Paper Quilling Gradient Series Set 10 Colors QP388 (10 Packs Individual, Width: 3mm)
Yes, the paper on these strips is of good quality, but the fact that they are white core astounds me. I wish I had given them more attention when they arrived, but I was too excited thinking I had found graduated strips at a reasonable price. br>br>If you're unfamiliar with the term "white core," it refers to paper that is colored on the outside but white on the inside. And because quilling is usually done with the cut edges showing rather than the flat surface, the color is mostly hidden behind the white. br>br>Moreover, there is no graduation through the coiled shape, only a white edge with a colored interior, which is a disaster for these graduated strips. br>br>I am extremely dissatisfied. Juya had failed to live up to my expectations. They should have known better than to make quilling strips out of white core paper. I'm including multiple photos because I don't want to discourage anyone who might enjoy it. br>br>The first is to demonstrate how unique it is in comparison to standard strips. For comparison, both pinks are nearly identical, but the "graduated" strip has almost no color in the center where it should be darkest. br>br>The second one demonstrates how misleading their images are, as mine shows that it is nearly the same shade from the "dark" end until it goes completely white. br>br>The last two are to compare with other graduated strips I have used. One has a flash, while the other does not. Again, you can see that the pink strip's center is not nearly as dark as the others. (The contrast is more visible on my project because it is red. ) )br>br>As a result, these are shaded from the inside color of the strips rather than being graduated. It had a great effect, but it wasn't what I was looking for. I'm just hoping the pictures convey what I'm talking about.
Because the paper is so thin and flimsy, it will not hold coils or other shapes. Because of their thinness, the colors rub off and fall apart with minimal handling. The core is white, which is ineffective for quilling because it is visible in the art piece. They're too thin (and too small) to be used as toilet paper. br>br>This is one of the most insignificant purchases I've ever made. br>br>Unfortunately, I lost money (keeping these) because I used some in the process of discovering the flaws. Don't make the same mistake I did by wasting your time and money on these.
FOR QUILLING: WORTHLESS: If you're thinking, like I did, that these would be perfect for quilling, think again. Because the paper has a white core, the gradient is minimal at best in a loose coil and almost non-existent in a tight coil. Even after chopping off the lightest third and doubling up, you can only get a "tinted" white.
Each strip's gradient colors will be highlighted by the various shapes you create. This item has been purchased twice and every strip has been used. It's lovely.
It's a little more difficult to work with than my other paper strips. I'm not going to buy any more of these. Some of the colors, such as yellow, appear to be muddy. Among the various paper strips I've purchased, this is my least favorite.
This is fantastic! From texture to weight to color, the paper is of high quality. I really like the paper and how it transitions from dark to light. Colors that are vibrant. It came in excellent packaging. I was even given a small ruler as a free gift. This company is extremely concerned with the quality of its products and their timely delivery to customers. For quilling supplies, this is my first choice.
Quilled flowers are a breeze to make with this tool. Juya is where I get a lot of my paper, and the quality has always been excellent! I'll be buying from them in the future!.
After quilling a flower, I don't think the paper variegation shows up all that much. I'm not sure I'd buy anything else.
