Adding Variation to Flower Ribbon Lei
Adding variations and embellishments to your flower ribbon lei can make it truly unique and beautiful. Here are some ideas to consider:
Beads or Pearls
Enhance the elegance of your ribbon lei by incorporating beads, or pearls. Choose beads that complement the color scheme of your lei or add a touch of contrast for visual interest. Pearls can lend a classic and sophisticated touch. This Ice Plant Flower Ribbon Lei using 8mm wood beads is so beautiful
Fabric Scraps
Make your flower ribbon lei eco-friendly and one-of-a-kind by using fabric scraps or up-cycled materials. This not only adds a sustainable aspect to your craft but also introduces a variety of textures and patterns, giving your lei a distinctive and eclectic charm.
Lace
I like using lace into my flower ribbon lei. Lace brings a touch of vintage elegance and intricacy to the design. The delicate and ornate nature of lace complements the softness of ribbon flowers, creating a visually appealing contrast that captures attention.
Rattail and Ric Rac
Rattail cord, with its smooth texture, adds a sleek finish to make little flower buds, while ric rac ribbon brings playful zigzag patterns, creating dynamic and eye-catching designs. Mixing and matching these elements can result in a visually appealing and beautiful design.
Remember, the beauty of creating ribbon leis lies in the endless possibilities for customization. Whether you're making it for yourself or as a gift, adding variations and embellishments allows you to showcase your creativity and make a truly unique and memorable piece of art.
