Make Your Own Aloha Shirt

This is one Aloha shirt that is easy to care for, on everyone’s budget, and fun to give to family and friends. If you can fold paper you can make one too. I made the Aloha Shirt card that’s pictured here. Next time I’ll add buttons for a more authentic look.

I learned this new skill at Ben Franklin Crafts which is located on Oahu, Maui, Kauai and The Big Island. For the cost of supplies you can take a class and meet some locals. They have a monthly craft calendar on-line with all of the details. This may be a good activity on a rainy day in Hawaii. Some months have more Hawaii theme crafts than others.
