I agree and see where you’re coming from. It’s true. Tongans don’t enough credit for their precision to meticulous detail and their authentic cultural craftsmanship that still continue so strongly today. I’ve seen and witnessed where people admire and adore our Tongan creations, but just ignore the fact where it’s from and they just call it accordingly to their origin. As humble and quiet and busy as bees as we can be continuously creating new designs and ideas with our culture because it’s the main four pillars of ours. But yes, there is a time and a place where respectfully boundaries should be put in place. So yes! Give the credit where it’s overdue! 👏🏽🤌🏽✨
Thank you for sharing your gifts with us..I’m Samoan, Māori and Tongan..and love that I can learn a bit of the Tongan cultural crafts from your channel! 🙏🏽
Awww Ms. Megan you don’t disappoint us with your creativity and your creations. I had a little hiccup yesterday cutting ribbons to short for mines. Lol it’s ok, I’m using that mistake to attach my money flowers with. Works and looks great.
Wow time consuming! You did that so fast though and just thought of something so quick and it’s so beautiful! Now I get why these things are so expensive, lei’s, etc. Thank you for sharing.❤❤
Thank you for your instructions and expertise for showing us how to make the kahoa lei. I am not an expert in lei making, but you make it look to simple that I am excited to attempt to make one. Wish me luck and I appreciate seeing your video.
Thank for showing us your greatest gift of making this Lei’s!. God blessed you for sharing with us!. Thanks a thousand times.. We really appreciated so very much…😇😇😇😇😇🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🤍🤍🤍🤍🤍❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️❤️❤️💙💙💙🥰🥰🥰😍😍😍💕💕💕

You are totally AWESOME! Thank you so much for sharing your talent! Thank you, thank you, thank you! You have no idea how amazing and beautiful your leis are. You are a saint for sharing 🙏🏽❤
Another gorgeous lei and tutorial! I'm so grateful to have found you. Thank you for sharing your talent with us. It's nice to see the beautiful face behind the calming voice on your videos. The background ribbon is a stunning alternative to the leaves. 🤙
I appreciate your dedication in sharing your wonderful talent. I love how you have utilized Polynesian aspects with what flora is available locally. I am in the ‘ nima vale’ group, but your methods of creativity inspires me to attempt this for very first time for my daughter’s upcoming graduation! Malo aupito from Oregon!
Thanks so much for sharing your talents. This is my first time watching your video. Keep it on .God bless your heart ❤️. Look forward to see next video. 🙏
I love how thorough you are. I'm not at the end of the video yet. How far in advance should they be made with the fresh flowers? Would it be the day of the event??
omg thank you so much for this tutorial 🥰. When I heard you say Idaho I thought I was trippin out lol. This will help me with my daughter's kinder graduation 🥰.
I see when you are working making delay you have the other flowers sit on the table should they be in water or will it be OK? Or just leave it out until you’re finished with your project. It won’t turn brown. How long does delay less from the time you make it?
Yes they will be fine. The lei will last 2+ days in the fridge depending on the type of flowers you use. I recommend keeping it in the fridge on the warmest setting until its ready to wear
Thank you for sharing. I really love your tutorials and the different ways of making the leis. Love all your leis and they're all beautiful. I'm always looking forward to watching your new tutorials and learning from them. Thank you again Megan you're simply the best. Looking forward for more. Have a safe and blessed week. ❤️
For anyone considering making this, remember THIS IS TONGAN!!! just a reminder of the cultural context and to whom the credit belongs to!!

Paracord, which you did not suggest, but people might use, is very absorbent. Which means it will get dirty quickly. Just FYI.

OMG Love this! You’re amazing! Do you have a tutorial on how to make a fakahaapai please?
I do! Check out our other videos, there is a ribbon fakaha’apai tutorial.
Love it 😍 Do you cover the back so all the roughness isnt showing?
Love this mahalo 💗🌸
Thanks for watching 🌺♥️
This is absolutely beautiful! Where do you get your lei needles? Thanks for sharing.
Your work is amazing. Do you mind adding the total cost of materials?
I see when you are working making delay you have the other flowers sit on the table should they be in water or will it be OK?
Or just leave it out until you’re finished with your project. It won’t turn brown.
How long does delay less from the time you make it?
Yes they will be fine. The lei will last 2+ days in the fridge depending on the type of flowers you use. I recommend keeping it in the fridge on the warmest setting until its ready to wear
Thank you so much Megan. I do want to ask if using artificial flowers would make a difference especially if I’m wanted to keep them long term.
Definitely! We have some fully artificial lei tutorials that show leis that can be reused over and over again.
🥰🥰🥰
What are the tools used ? Can anyone list them down for me !!!
Do you have any words of wisdom about not using staples and sewing it on there? Is it too delicate for sewing?
❤
Is that a green plastic sheet?
It is stiffened felt
Is this lei mainly for men wear?
Its worn by men and women ♥️🌺
🤙🏼
Malo Meg
Thank you for sharing. I really love your tutorials and the different ways of making the leis. Love all your leis and they're all beautiful. I'm always looking forward to watching your new tutorials and learning from them. Thank you again Megan you're simply the best. Looking forward for more. Have a safe and blessed week. ❤️
Hi Megan
It's me again I forgot to ask if you used the regular satin ribbon or the polypropylene ribbon. Thanks.
Thank you ❤
Beautiful
Thank you!! 🌺♥️
