Students will also learn the integral skill of placement of leaves and flowers between twists to secure them in the lei. Students will learn ti leaf preparation, as well as the traditional Hawaiian style of lei hili. Students will complete the workshop as they design and weave their lei, including the essential skill of tying it off.
