3 Hawaiian Leis Eyelash Yarn Luau Lei

Description

Aloha to all you Hawaiians and Hawaiians at heart!
Giving a lei to someone can mean friendship, love, or just simply Aloha.
Special feelings and meanings go into making a lei, especially one that becomes a treasured keepsake.
A lei is placed over the recipient's head and worn over the shoulders draped both front and back.
The placement of the lei is traditionally followed by a kiss!
I have three handmade in Hawaii lei available in a lot. I purchased these while living in Hawaii and thought these were the nicest handmade ones I saw. I never used them but kept them safely stored. One is blue with a few very discrete light reflective threads, the other is a red yellow combination of yarns (a somewhat orange appearance together) and the last is made with kukui nuts, traditional for greeting a male.
There are many opportune times for giving someone a fragrant flower lei.
The custom was made internationally famous decades ago when visitors were greeted with lei upon their arrival to the islands.
Today, the giving of a lei to someone arriving or departing our islands still continues, and the lei is often kept as a memento of the special memories of the occasion.
The art of lei making has evolved over the years and now it is common to use new materials like ribbon, fabric, wooden beads, mylar, trims, yarn, candy, clay and money.
Uniquely Hawaiian, this treasure makes a wonderful keepsake!
