Aloha Around The World - Traveling Lei
The Story of the Traveling Lei
The Rules for Traveling Lei contests:
- At the end of the contest, the current lei holder will ship the Traveling Lei to the next lucky winner.
- Along with a small gift from your own state or country.
- You must attach a creative tag to the “traveling lei”, such as “Aloha from Hawai`i”, or “Howdy from Texas”, etc., and your blog address. The tag should be no larger than the size of an airline baggage tag or Xmas tag so we can get lots of them on there
- When you receive the lei, you must post a picture of yourself wearing it and holding a sign that says “I got lei’d by DB in Hawai`i!” (or whomever you got the lei from). Also post a link back to me and the person you got the lei from so we can keep track of our Aloha, as well as these rules personalized to your own site.
- Then create your own contest for the next winner, but the rules for the traveling lei will remain the same. The contest should run for no shorter than a week and no longer than two weeks.
The idea is that we want to send this Aloha lei all around the world if we can. Eventually it should have tags from everywhere its been I will keep track of the leis’ progress so we always know where it is. Simple enough?

CrazyRideLady Won JuneBuggs contest!! Yes fellow Bloggers and Bloggettes, she won with this entry:
"One year I recieved a very nice set of earrings, in a small metal box that was welded shut! I had to get my dad to cut it open with a torch for me!"
Now, here’s how you can win CrazyRideLady’s contest. "Tell me in the comments what are the curious, unique, or down right weird things that you do to pass the time when the weather isn’t exactly, shall we say, perfect." Bear Creek Ledger’s Toni, from Tenn., won CrazyRideLAdy’s contest with her "Bathtub mouse trap" Congratulations Toni!! We’ll be watching for your contest.
pfffffffffffffffttt……….
yeah yeah yeah, congrats you guys.
But seriously DB, would any of them have posted themselves wearing the lei topless like me? hmmm? would they?
that’s what I thought.
You still can get Lei’d Kim… 1)when you get here, and 2)you can still win one of the other Lei contests, including 3)B’Tudes contest. JuneBugg’s contest starts New Years Day
That’s sooo cool! I’m gonna try to get lei’d again, because it was so much fun the first time! ha ha.
[…] Get LEI’D folks! Here is the Story of the Traveling Lei. […]
Love the idea.
Jane
Go for it Suzanne
Thank you Jane, and thanks for posting it on your site as well
For the travelling lei competition: I was lucky enough to receive a limited edition, Ceylon Petroleum Company 25th anniversary…… casserole pot. To add insult to injury, it was 5 years out of date!
Jules– you’ll need to go to JuneBugg’s site and leave your entry. I tried to send you an email to let you know, but it bounced. If you win, you’ll need to leave a valid email so she can contact you for shipping address, etc.
DB
The new winner is up!
