I was born and raised in Oahu and now have my firstborn graduating and realized I hadn't made a candy lei, well one that was pretty, in YEARS. So I truly appreciate this, thank you!
Awesome work!!! I'm also an artist/ islander living in the states and you've definitely inspired me. My son just graduated HS and now my niece is next. I'll post pics when done :) LOL I'm logged under my son's accnt (MrSizzle).
Super love your tutorials! I made a money lei for my brother-in-laws graduation last weekend but actually crafted the bills into flowers...wayyyyy to much work! I like yours so much better! I'm thinking I will make my husbands baby sister your version of the money lei and one of these kisses ones! Perfect since its her favorite candy! You are too adorable and creative!
Great job!! Thank you sooo much for sharing. I moved to Louisiana from Hawaii 19 years ago and wanted to make a lei for my son's best friend for his senior day for soccer but could not remember how to start the process lol. It was a huge hit with everyone and especially the senior. Thanks again for spreading the aloha! Mahalo brada!!
Wow wow wow wow I love love love love it hi my friend my father is from Hawaii and I am really enjoyed watching this video on UA-cam channel and I really want to learn how to make a flower Lie and thank you so much for sharing your experience and great job and gorgeous colors and styles and God bless you and your family my friend
I so love your channel. I have been following your tutorials on making different type of leis. I am going to make this 3D one for my preschooler who is graduating tomorrow. Thank you for sharing. I have been wanting to know how to make this kind. From one Poly to another. Mahalo.
one thing i learned from being in art school is being weird is a good thing. so be as much of a weirdo as you want :) lol thanks for watching. good luck
@mlene08 yes, you can do it with almost any candy thats all the same size. just make sure the gum balls are not to large, it may he a bit hard to arrange them
i love your leis. this candy one is so much nicer than the more common ones i've seen. i am, however, a little worried that it might melt. has that happened?
i guess it depends on your local climate. but i never really had a melted mess. They can get soft under direct sunlight, but I never got to the point where they puddle and drip everywhere. If you are worried about the sun before handing it to someone, you can place them in a handheld cooler. i do that sometimes for my flower leis so they dont welt before handing it.
sorry about that, UA-cam provided music sure doesn't have much options for editing. yeah, i've been debating whether to change the music or just take it off all together LOL
Loving everything I don't have much money and I wanted to do something really nice for my brother :-) thank you he is the first out of 6 kids to graduated with cap and gown :-)
Thanks so much for sharing your ideas! I was having a hard time finding the cellophane in my daughter's school colors so I am going to try using the spools of sparkly tulle.... have you tried that? Anyways... crossing my fingers! Thanks again!
way too cool. I made a $100 lei for the School Scholorship program and it wouldve been nicer had i seen this one first because i could have staggered the csh.on to another grad this friday and i will perfect my project!!!!
@ahliewser08 but from the looks of it. it looks like simple cuts of mylar sheets which are strung by a needle. you can experiment by crumpling and folding when stringing to get that ruffle look
Thats so beautiful i love it!! I love the simple traditional candy lei makings, but after awhile it just starting to get boring, so i ended up on here, watched it till the end, was very impressed on how it came out to be, 👍 the video & SUBSCRIBED!!! Thank you so much, gonna be doing this for my daughters 6th grade grad & for my other 3 nieces who is ALL graduating out of the 6th grade so theres 4 of them!! But this looks very fun to do & something i find myself doing on the days where i have nothing to do!! Mahalo
@@JackTopusArt Actually, I was thinking if I made this, I would leave a gap in the back of the neck. I live in San Jose, CA and it can and does get really hot here. Thank you again.
basically i just the end with the 2ends into the loop and double or triple knot. You can also just tie both ends into each other if the loop end is long enough. doesn't really matter how you do it just as long as it holds really. but i'll be making more videos once grad season gets closer and when i have time. I'll make sure to put a "tie video" on the list to do also :) Thank you for watching.
@ahliewser08 ahh hmm im not to much of a big fan of these type of leis. but if i find a place where i can get mylar sheets i'll try and do a video. but from the looks of it.
I was born and raised in Oahu and now have my firstborn graduating and realized I hadn't made a candy lei, well one that was pretty, in YEARS. So I truly appreciate this, thank you!
"150-160 kisses for one good lei". LOVE IT 😂. Great video! Detailed and straight to the point. Thank you!
I love this idea. It's a unique way to make a candy necklace rather than the traditional candy necklaces we're used to seeing.
Awesome !! Mahalo nui loa!! You are really great showing your aloha !! Keep up the great work!!
Awesome work!!! I'm also an artist/ islander living in the states and you've definitely inspired me. My son just graduated HS and now my niece is next. I'll post pics when done :)

Ive been asking around if anyone knew how to make the Hershey kiss lei, and no one seemed to know. Thanks for sharing!!

Awww Congratulations to your brother!!! I can imagine how proud your family is of him! =-)

I thought about using your idea for my sons class, but on goodness it looks time consuming! Mahalo for sharing!

WOW! great to hear he was the show stopper during the event :) Love how you mixed it up, i like creative leis like that. great job!
@mlene08 yes, you can do it with almost any candy thats all the same size. just make sure the gum balls are not to large, it may he a bit hard to arrange them
Awesome!!! I will be doing this lei for my 3rd grader who is getting an academic award this week. Thanks for sharing:-)
Awesome video!! I made my lei for my sons 8th grade graduation & received lots of compliments!! Thank you!!
that's a great idea for birthday parties. I hope to see more great ideas from you!
GREAT VIDEO! PLEASE DO MORE 3D CANDY LEI VIDEOS!
thank you for watching. Look up my Hybrid/Candy Lei, you may also like that one if you like this 3D lei.
I like how colorful they!! Good video!
i love your leis. this candy one is so much nicer than the more common ones i've seen. i am, however, a little worried that it might melt. has that happened?
I am making this for my son this year. Wow thanks for going into detail. You make this very easy for me.
i guess it depends on your local climate. but i never really had a melted mess. They can get soft under direct sunlight, but I never got to the point where they puddle and drip everywhere. If you are worried about the sun before handing it to someone, you can place them in a handheld cooler. i do that sometimes for my flower leis so they dont welt before handing it.
I love how you said you need 150 kisses for a good lei! 😂
love the video!! and using your foot to hold the string!!, that was Priceless!! my kind of tutorial!,😁

You have so many great ones. I love the videos. Thank you
looks really good, great job! Thanks for the ideas too.
Thank you for the video. What about the heat from your neck. Will it melt the kisses?
i never had an issue with that. though i assume if you're outdoors in dead summer heat, it may.
@@JackTopusArt Actually, I was thinking if I made this, I would leave a gap in the back of the neck. I live in San Jose, CA and it can and does get really hot here. Thank you again.
WOW!!! Those are really cute and easy!!! Thanks for a wonderful tutorial....I will definitely be using this.
basically i just the end with the 2ends into the loop and double or triple knot. You can also just tie both ends into each other if the loop end is long enough. doesn't really matter how you do it just as long as it holds really.
but i'll be making more videos once grad season gets closer and when i have time. I'll make sure to put a "tie video" on the list to do also :) Thank you for watching.
