Tearing vs Cutting Quilling Strip Ends - Comparison and Tips

Tearing vs Cutting Quilling Strip Ends - Comparison and Tips

Is it better to tear or cut your quilling strip ends before you glue the end down? I've been asked that question many times, so I thought I'd share a video about it. 



My tutorial video shows you some close up photos, comparing the two results, so you can decide how you want to approach your quilling. I also share some tips on how to minimize the gap so it's less distracting, if you are indeed distracted by this small detail.

Tearing your strip does create more of a tapered end, making the seam less visible.

It's more noticeable with thicker paper, like Canson Mi-Teintes.
Can you spot which strip was torn vs cut?

I find the comparison very noticeable when gluing a strip in between two other strips.

Do you notice a difference between the two methods? Please share your experience or helpful tips in the comments below so we can all learn from you too!
