Why including a green leafy in bouquet or your crochet project
Adding some lovely green crochet leafy can make your crochet bouquet looks more vivid and
good looking.
Provides greenery and fullness – The green leaves help fill out the bouquet and make it
look lush and full. Flowers alone can look a bit sparse. The green foliage provides a
nice backdrop for the colorful flowers.
Adds texture and visual interest – The different leaf shapes and sizes add variation in
texture and visual appeal. This makes the bouquet more interesting to look at.
Balances colors – Green leaves help balance out bright or dark flower colors in the
bouquet. They provide a nice neutral color that lets the flower colors pop.
Directs the eye – Strategic placement of leafy greens can help direct the eye
throughout the bouquet and highlight focal flowers.
Provides support – The foliage helps provide structural support and a framework for the
bouquet to hold the flowers in place.
Brings nature indoors – The greens give the bouquet a fresh, garden-picked look and
help bring a bit of nature’s beauty indoors.
Some of our bouquets include this Alocasia leaf, which serves as the finishing touch to make
these bouquets richer and more exceptional as a whole.
