Lei maker friends, don’t come for me 😜. This was my first time making this. Our beloved `a`ali`i representing strength and kī representing protection, I wanted to make something that meant something as Kaci makes the transition from elementary to middle school. This lei dries beautifully and will hang in her room as a reminder that she is strong and always protected by Ke Akua and her kūpuna ✨ #mayday2026 #leiday
Forever Lei Making (blooper) 🌺 Sometimes you trip over your hot glue cord and momentarily panick about getting burned, but then realize you're still recording and gotta keep going 😂 DIY and crafting is my jam but the 30 second videos don't always tell the whole story. This is your reminder that life is supposed to be messy! Learning from mistakes > perfection any day!! I hope you've been enjoying this lei making series! Stay tuned for another graduation lei idea tomorrow 🌈 . . . . #leimaking #graduationlei #graduationleis #leiday #springcrafts lei making, forever lei, graduation lei, grad lei inspo, preschool graduation, Kindergarten graduation, high school graduation
No music, no sped up video… Just lei making in real time - slow, thoughtful, & intentional ✨ In preparation for May Day tomorrow, resharing one of my favorite lei that I made.

TODAY IS LEI DAY ...But why do we receive leis when we visit Hawai'i. And what's the protocal behind the tradition? It's more than just flowers. A lei is a vessel for "Mana"—spiritual energy. From the moment the flowers are foraged (always with permission) to the moment the lei is returned to the earth, there is a strict protocol of respect and intention. Next time you're gifted one, remember: you're wearing someone's good wishes for you around your neck. #LeiDay #Hawaii #CulturalTravel #Oahu #ResponsibleTravel #Mana
May 1st is Lei Day! A day dedicated to celebrating Hawaiian culture. 🌺 You can get involved by learning the meaning behind different lei, supporting local makers, attending cultural events, or even trying to make your own lei with respect for the practice. 💚 Every small effort helps preserve and share Hawaiian culture for future generations. 🌈🏝️ #leiday #hawaii #happyleiday #maui #leiday2026
