It’s always nice to see that other cultures taking a liking from our traditions, people do admire what we do for our graduates. It makes me happy that people wants to be part of it.🙏

Mahalo nui loa for sharing your crafty knowledge. This is definitely a labor of love. Does anyone else have an evil laugh going through their head at the thought of their child having to undo the lei in order to spend the money? It’s just me? 😂😇❤️

Best money graduation lei I've seen! BEAUTIFUL!! I love the idea of not using tape to bills, and the dollar bill flowers are unique and beautiful. thanks so much for sharing. I have a lei I have to make in a few weeks, and your way is my CHOICE!

Thanks Megan. I’m making this for my granddaughter who is graduating exactly 50 years after me!

Thanks a bunch for sharing this. My daughter is graduating college June 2024, so I figure if I start now I can make a flower each month with 20's. and some with 50's, so by the end she'll have an awesome lei!
