The hard candy one might be super fun at music festivals, you could let people take their favorite flavor. The necklace would get lighter the more you give away! 🥳

I’m Spanish and in my family we have this tradition that at 12 am on the night of your birthday we wake up the person and give them a lei with their favourite things on them and then sing happy birthday . It’s one of my favourite memories from my childhood .

Hi Emmy, Thank you so much for being here and making content for us. I'm having another rough one and I was about to do something and said "wait, I need someone here with me" and I went straight to youtube and typed in your channel, and now I'm actually crying in relief. You really do a lot to brighten my day and I know you do the same for others. Thank you so much for sharing your fun and love with us, I needed it so badly today.

Many got simular stuff when I graduated eh way to many years ago. We just tied a ribbon to the candy wraps so we don't use lots of extra plastic for nothing. It's allready wrapped. Or glue to the wrap and the ribbon. Also easy to eat with it all still around neck

I imagine the Tootsie Roll or Jolly Rancher ones would be nice keepsakes even after the candy is consumed. You wouldn't need to take it apart to remove eat the candy, and the leftover wrappers would still be colorful and voluminous.

People in Hawaii actually wear them, they are traditional and used celebrations and other events. May 1st is lai day. Graduation lais are extremely popular. Like all the craft stores atm here are filled with supplies to make graduation lai. And you will even get lai made our of money for graduation. There are even artists who make really complicated beautiful lei.
