In Hawaii, the “lei” is a traditional part of Hawaii and is given at many events, special occasions, and is a way of showing, respect, love, congratulations, and is also a way to welcome visitors to the islands.
Traditionally leis are made out of many different flowers and now many lei makers are using leaves, shells and other plants, beads, and nuts to decorate the lei.
Here is a silk flower lei with poinsetta and a white flower called tuberose. Get ready for the holidays and contact us to order – Email: wishiwere@themarketplaceshops.com.
