VIP Tongan Leis - Lauhala/Fa or Foam Papers

Lately I have been enjoying making leis out of the foam papers, ti leaves and hawaiian flowers. These leis are pretty popular in Hawaii. These are special leis for special occasions such as graduation, birthday, wedding, retirement, father's day, mother's day, anniversary and special award/accomplishment celebration. These leis take a lot of time to make. Ti leaves must be gathered, cut and prep before braiding the garland. I have to pre-prep the foam paper semi-circle individual flower before attaching them to the ti leaves garland. I have two categories under the VIP Tongan Leis. The first one is made out of the foam papers red and white, flowers and ti leaves. This type of leis can be shipped to the mainland. The flower that I use since they last in the mainland is the stephanotis (Hawaiian wedding flower). The other type of VIP Tongan Leis is made out of the Lauhala fruit/Pandanus fruit known to Tongans as the "Fa" fruit. The design of the individual flower is adopted from the famous Tongan lei known as the "Faka'otusia" - strips of lauhala fruit sewn together in a semi-circle design and crown with a flower or a ti leaf rose. It is very beautiful and elegant fit for your most special occasion or to give as a gift to loved ones.

Lei Preview - Money Leis

I have been making leis for over 15 years and have developed a love for making money leis. You see in our Polynesian culture we love to give gifts. For example, when invited to a wedding, a birthday, a retirement party or a graduation we love to take monetary gifts with us. I decided to mix the Hawaiian culture of lei giving with the Polynesian culture of gift giving and put the money on a haku or lei. The money leis that I make are elegant looking and just gorgeous. Currently I use 15 or 25 Real US 1 dollar bills to make beautiful money flower and then weave each flower on a braided ti leaves garland. I also use ribbon roses to decorate the lei. We currently offer white, green, blue, hot pink and red ribbon roses. There is a discount in price if you were referred to my website from this blog.

The blog prices for the Ti Leaf Money Leis are:

15 - Real US 1 dollar bills without ribbon roses is $35.00

15 - Real US 1 dollar bills with color assorted ribbon roses is $40.00

25 - Real US 1 dollar bills without ribbon roses is $50.00

25 - Real US 1 dollar bills with color assorted ribbon roses is $60.00

We can also use 15 or 25 5 and 10 dollar bills for an added fee or $50.00.
