They took a long length of colored saran wrap, then laid a piece of wrapped candy in a row down the long way. They'd roll the sides to enclose it, then took pieces of curling ribbon to tie the wrap between candies to seperate them (then curl the ribbon). Tie the long ends of the candy tube together, and there you have it! The recipents were thrilled; those who didn't were envious. So easy to make with after holiday sales that everyone can have one!

I love leis and would love to know how to make the traditional Hawaiian ones with real flowers. The only ones I made were with tissue paper in school. Have a great time in Hawaii!
