Download or read book Lei Aloha written by Meleana Estes and published by Ten Speed Press. This book was released on 2023-04-25 with total page 257 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Explore Hawaiian culture through the art of lei making with flower inspirations and gorgeous photography from stylist, fashion designer, and local island icon Meleana Estes. Brimming with vibrant photos of the most famous flower garlands of Hawai’i—the lei—in dreamy island settings, Lei Aloha tells the story of the flowers, craftsmanship, and community of lei culture, offering a window into this beautiful world where life is a little slower, flowers are abundant, and personal connections run deep. Local style icon Meleana Estes continues the legacy of her native Hawaiian grandmother, who was well known for her intricate and stunning lei. Sprinkled throughout the book also are anecdotes about the fascinating history of flowers, lei, and island traditions. Each chapter tells the story of a grouping of flowers and lei, such as plumerias for a sweet gathering of neighborhood keiki (kids), elegant strands of white and yellow ginger for a candle-lit party, or striking lei haku made for hula performances. It’s an easy craft for the homesteader with roots in a full backyard garden or the digital nomad who keeps her possessions in one suitcase and can pick up flowers on her travels. With evocative photos of vintage mu’umu’us, lush tropical gardens, lei-bedecked longboard surfers, striking tablescapes, and graceful hula dancers, Lei Aloha shares a side of the islands that only locals usually get to see.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Just as nature passes through seasons, so do our lives move through warm springs and harsh winters. In soft whispers and nudges through different seasons of author Dee Russells life, God has sometimes used the quietness of nature and the life of these colorful plants to speak to her, teaching valuable lessons that she sorely needed to learn. In the personal stories, paintings, and poetry of The Flowers That Softly Spoke, Russell now shares those lessons. Reflection in the quiet environs of nature provides a secret to replenishing the spirit for the duties of the day, and this collection brings those reflections to life. Along the way, Russell considers relationships, growth and adventure, perseverance, and hope. These tales from her life outline the sometimes magical messages that flowers can offer and make clear the idea that we can choose the higher calling of listening to the still small voice within and searching out the wisdom of the scriptures that call us to a better way. This illustrated inspirational collection presents anecdotes and verses designed to brighten your day with faith and friendship.
