Graduation season is here.
Just last week we were in Utah to attend our son Clark’s college graduation. We were outside taking some photos when I spotted something.
My kids are now use to me going up to perfect strangers asking to take pictures of their food, their outfit, etc. so it was no surprise when I stopped this new college graduate and asked to take a picture of his lei.

He was actually wearing three leis! A traditional flower lei but then he also had a candy lei and a money lei.
The candy lei was made out of plastic wrap and candy bars and tied in between each candy bar with ribbon – so cute.
But the lei I liked the most was the money lei – what graduate wouldn’t love a money lei!!
Dollar bills were gathered up and tied in the middle and then attached to a piece of ribbon.
There were also little bags of Hershey Hugs and Kisses tied in between the dollar bills. So fun!!

Everything was attached to some curling ribbon. I am going to have to remember this one next year when Tessa graduates from high school!!
