Hawaiian Lei Craft
Materials Needed:
Construction Paper
Colorful Straws
Yarn
Instructions:
An easy project! Cut a length of yarn to hang loosely around your neck; make sure you cut it a little longer than you want it so you have room to tie the ends of the yarn together. Cut the straws into 1 inch long pieces. Cut many colorful flower shapes out of construction paper (you can use the graphics below to trace if you like!). Use a hole puncher and put holes in the center of all your flowers.
Now that you have all your pieces prepared, you can start making your lei! Tie a small piece of straw onto the end of your piece of yarn. Start stringing your flowers and straw pieces onto the yarn. Alternate between flowers and straws. Once you get the design you want and the yarn piece is full, tie the two ends of the yarn together and wear your lei with pride!
