Beautifully done Megan. I love how you explain each step by step for people who never in my life have picked up a needle and thread. Thank you for this tutorial.

My sister and I are loving your channel!! By any chance can you make a tutorial of how a Tongan kahoa would be made with beads?!
Thank you so much!!!! Thats a great idea, I will add it to my list of tutorials!
Can you do a version with money under the ti leaf? Please 🙏🏼 I wanna make one as a gift for my brother’s wedding day. My hubby is the best man and it will be gifted during the speeches
YOU ARE AMAZING!! thank you so much of this! where is the video of you showing how to weave? i’m looking to make this for a graduation i have coming up!!
I love this lei. What size is your ribbon?
Love this lei!! What are you using to sew it on? Ribbon?
I just use curling ribbon!
For my mothers memorial photo, do you think the ti leaf ribbon looks better than ribbon? I already bought the 1.3" royal blue ribbon for the $ flower ribbon lei. Thanks. Everyone loves your leis & Ive told lots of my fb group about your youtube channel.
I think the royal blue ribbon will look beautiful. Using the ti leaf ribbon is the most realistic artificial lei I’ve done so it just depends on the finished look you are going for ♥️🌺
Beautiful and can you do the real flowers🩷🩷🙏🙏🙏🙏
Please, teach how to make a Tongan TekiTeki! I’ve been looking all over for tutorials and can’t find any.
Yes please 🙏😊
Can you use a different color of ribbon for the base?
What length of the ti leaf ribbon would be needed for one lei? The Amazon link has different yard length options.
An adult lei needs 6-7 yards of the ti leaf ribbon
Aloha Megan did you say I have to cut them 7" long and I need at least 80-90 strips? and the string is about 40 inches long.?
Yes, the ti leaf ribbon is cut 7” long and then the width is cut into thirds and you need 80-90 of the individual pieces. Your string will need to be longer than 40 inches because of the weaving process. I usually cut mine 60-70 inches depending on the length I want my finished lei.
Okay I might be slow hahaha. When you sew are you piercing through the ti leaf ribbon? Or you said pierce through the twine, so pierce through the white ribbon instead of the ti lead ribbon? Haha sorry I was confused at that part.
I do both because of the placement of the flower. The twine is thicker than the ti leaf ribbon so I like to go through it at least once per flower. Sometimes if you go through the ti leaf ribbon and pull too hard it will rip through the ribbon.
Okay awesome thank you so much!!
Do you heat the ends of the ribbon, so they don't fray?
This ribbon has a plastic like texture so it doesn’t fray
What length of time leaf ribbon is needed? Thanks.
The specific ribbon I used needs 6-7 yards of ribbon for the lei. The 1.3” ribbon you will need about 16 yds.
Where do you get the artificial gardenias from?
They are from Amazon, it is linked in the description box!
How long does the twine need to be?
I cut my twine 70-80 inches long
What is this artificial material called on Amazon? Because every time I enter artificial tea leaves it's not the same as that your using. Please
Ti leaf ribbon or aspidistra leaf ribbon. Theres a link in the description box of the ribbon we used as well
@@makeitmegan Thank you. I didn't know it was a ribbon.
Can you link your needle pls?
These are the ones I usually use!
