Spring is a perfect time to focus on the colors of nature, and green color is just one of them.
Ever since I started beading, I have collected a lot of seed beads in green. As it usually happens to avid crafters and creative people, I only noticed it a couple of years later. The good news is I still love this color. If you do, too, you might find this post useful, and I hope it will help you solve some color palette problems.
Is Color Green Good For Your Eyes?
Did you know that the color green enhances vision, boosts appetite, stimulates healthy living, and most importantly, relaxes mind and body?
Yes, there is a good reason we all need to spend time in nature. Many of us feel relaxed and refreshed after a trip out of the city because greenery affects our mood and perception.
I have a little garden, and I can assure you, looking at green grass all day has a very calming effect.
