ReplyDeleteMalo e lelei Tufui,
ReplyDeleteYes, you can indeed weave with flax. I like to dry mine out and treat it, it turns a light sand colour when I do this. I would love to weave more often, I really want to weave my Mum an ili (fan) one day. I remember seeing lots of beautiful ili in my grandparents house when I was young. Is there something in particular you'd like to weave?
Sounds like you have an amazing Mum and Dad! Parents are amazing, they go through lots of things so that their children can be happy and healthy. It’s a wonderful thing to show our parent lots of love and appreciation whenever we can, we don't always have to wait for Mother's and Father's day. I love going out to lunch with my Mum, we talk about lots of stuff. What’s something special you like to do with your Mum?
You have posted some interesting looking plants, have you had the chance to smell either of these plants? I am curious about whether they really do smell the same!
Toe feiloa'i fo'i,
Cia.
