The craft was used in Old Hawaii when feather lei were used primarily to honor the alii (royalty). Even today the feather lei is considered a rarity, since the beautiful pelts are often difficult to obtain and the workmanship is usually long and painstaking. The feathers are carefully selected, cut and trimmed and the entire process is slow going. The feather lei can be draped along the base of a hat as a hatband and can also be worn around the neck. Hawaiian Quilts For a tropical climate like Hawaii, you may find it odd that Hawaiian quilts are so prevalent, often displayed decoratively as wall art in large rooms or hallways. Yet the art of quilt making in the islands is a valued tradition that continues to gain in popularity. Hawaiian quilting is different from other methods because it uses its own pattern and features appliqué blocks in most quilts. The missionaries first introduced these appliqué blocks to the islands and many of the early designs can still be seen in Hawaiian quilts today. Niihau Shell Necklace The Niihau Shell Lei is a special Hawaiian necklace made from rare shells that can only be found on the island of Niihau. These are the only shells that are classified as “gems” and once you see them, you’ll understand why. These delicate shells come in a variety of colors including white, yellow, orange and even a rare blue. Whole families are involved in collecting the shells and carefully sorting them by size and color. The intricate craftsmanship that goes into a Niihau Shell Lei makes each one a prized possession.

Well, trueexcept for the fact that Hawaii is actually in the North Pacific Even as the late as the 1950s, few visitors to the islands ventured far beyond the comfortable surroundings of Honolulu and legendary Waikiki Beach on the island of Oahu From museums to nightlife, Honolulu is the cultural crossroads of the Pacific Rim But there is another Hawaii on five neighboring islands, each with its own character and its own, unique aloha spirit Maui, with its miles of exemplary beachfront resorts is the most popular of the outer islands And if you can drag yourself away from the sand (or the sand traps at several superb golf courses), there are few views in the world that can top those from the summit of Haleakala volcano and few drives that can match the spectacular, winding coastal road to Hana Kauai is often called the Garden Isle, but it's the islands beaches and the incredible cliff-lined Napali Coast that visitors usually talk about. And while Kauai, like her sister islands, is best seen from the water (catamaran, surfboard, outrigger canoe for starters), the hiking here is unforgettable. The Big Island (as the locals call it) is Hawaii at its most dramatic, from red-hot lava flowing to the sea at the worlds most active volcano to stunning waterfalls. For those looking for a little less drama, relaxing is no effort at luxury resorts scattered along the Kona-Kohala coast. Once a pineapple plantation in the sea, Lanai is now home to a pair of upscale resorts one in the mountains, one at the sea each with a top-rated championship golf course. Development has mostly bypassed Molokai, and thats much of the islands charm. Riding a mule down the steep switchback trail to Kalapapa is a long-standing tradition, and longtime visitors know this is still an island where some of the best beaches have no footprints for days at a time Oahu Maui Kauai Big Island Lanai Molokai Home • Island Destination Search • Travel Deals • Islands Magazine Weddings & Honeymoons • Desktop Images • Contact Us • Employment Opportunities Please visit our other World Publications websites: Caribbean Travel Planner | Cruising World Discover St. Thomas & St. John | Resorts & Great Hotels | Saveur | Spa | Sportdiver © 2005 World Publications
