DIY Money Lei for Wedding or Graduation

I'll show you how to make a money lei. Makes a great gift! Give it as a graduation gift, or place it on a bride or groom during their money dance. Cute and super easy! Best part is whoever gets your present can actually use the money! (However, I doubt they would want to take this lei apart after they see its beauty!)

[@chrissy1871]

I was browsing money lei vids all week and FINALLY found the perfect demonstration. Thank you so much!

[@llaw1414]

I agree! This video has all the details needed and the final result in awesome!!!

[@lydiavicknair]

Your concise articulation, repeating where deemed necessary and pleasant personality made this the best one I've seen. Your teaching style is so effective & engaging. Thank you from a 4th grade teacher:)

[@thechameleon808]

Thanks Anne. I was looking for video tutorials on how to make a money lei, and this is one of the best if not..the best. Graduation is right around the corner, and will be making two of these for my niece and nephew. Thanks again!!!

[@musicalnote4402]

Out of all the other tutorials I watched, yours is the best. You described everything into details. I keep coming to your video to make leis. It's very easy to understand what your saying and demonstrating. All the other videos got me lost in 5 minutes. I actually saved this video to my Playlist for every year that I need it. Hence I'm here this year for another family member graduating. Thank you

[@msvlines]

Thank you for the very clear, articulate instructions, and demo! Your friendly personality also made it fun. The best I've seen.

[@marilyndyson7000]

I made this lei 4 years ago for my friend's 50th bday. It is still getting the rave. Now I am doing it for my son's high school graduation. This is the best lei!!

[@staceyinocencio7909]

Thank you for an easy to do project. I have twins (boy/girl) graduating High school next week so glad I got to see this first. Congratulations on your wedding!

[@lisaleeleelulu]

I come back to your video every time I need to make a lei for one of my sons graduations. Yours is the best video!

[@musicalnote4402]

Oh my goodness!! I love it!! Gotta make 4 of these leis for this weekend. Gotta start it now!! Came here to watch it one last time. So here goes!!

[@pattycakesr4u]

[@HFDay-qi6yc]

Thanks for the video and tips! It was so true it did take several hours to do this. Likely, I took your advice and started to work on it a week before graduation. I only had an hour to work on it every chance I had. So it me a week to finish. Ahh... done! Thanks again :)

[@LegitMarrany]

This was fantastic. Thanks so much I'm doing this for my little sister's graduation.

[@carolzepeda7817]

I love this. I’m giving this to my in laws ( whom I don’t really like) for their expense money, on the trip to Hawaii. I love the idea of my piss ant father in law, having to try and get the money off the lei to spend in Hawaii! Lol...I’m thrilled with this, thank you!

Hi there! I do know how to make money leis, but like a "sash" type? If I do this one, do you think I could do this in 2 & a half hours? ;) I wonder? I will try this one though... Thanks & God Bless! :)

[@esmeraldavargas1709]

Thanks for the tutorial, i love those i'm making one for my daughter's graduations this coming May, How many beads do i need for $150 ? i might combine 1,, 5 and 2 $ bills.

[@akferrer]

Hi Virginia, you need at least 51 beads if you're planning to put fifty bills together. Best- anne

[@marilourecacho3058]

I'm making a money lei for a kindergartener, would it be possible to use 20 one dollar bills for a mini lei instead?

[@ellululu]

Yes

[@nvte..]

I loved it. How many beads though?

[@808BigE]

With 50 bills. probably need 51 beads.

[@madmiah3763]

im made 3 of these

[@brunamclean3807]

what's a good price to charge to make a money lei

[@cory57le]

ummm cool we tried making it but we tried and its cool

[@thalialedesma8809]

Now everyone is copying this. Its more of a polynesian thing

[@rha5120]

Thalia Ledesma its a hawaii thing mainlanders betta recognize

[@ajeshniraj8560]

At any Bank..

[@lisamariehernandez2052]

you can use $25 bills and 25 pieces of colored paper cut the same size of a bill, that's way cheaper..lol

[@andreaesparza5547]

cant you do it by ten dollers and not 50

[@rachellewalter3130]

She said this was $50?

[@yuleydismadrigal4895]

How much beads does it take for 1000 dollarbills in 10

[@amiah.a]

Well since 1000÷10 is 100 you will have one hundred bills and you always need one more bead than you have bills so you sir will need 101 beads.

[@amiah.a]

Im srry I didnt mean to say sir

[@whitneychengo824]

csb

[@madmiah3763]

Imagine getting 50 100 dollor bills :))))
