Aloha Kakahiaka from, Hawai'i Nei :) Happy Aloha Friday. \000/ Hau'oli Makahiki Hou '2026.... My 1st review here for, '2026, Chee Hooo!! Haha..... It's a bit cold here in Hawai'i Nei today, 65° to be exact!! Lol! Yeah, it's Cold here for Hawai'i peeps, well Imho :) I enjoy Shopping here @Crafts Way (for "Tiare stick Flowers w/Tahitian Pearls), especially after just recently a Wahine @one of our Local Eatery here on Oahu, asked me where did I get my "Tiare" flower from?? That's like the 5th time or even more times, I've gotten that same exact same question from mostly Wahines, either from Hawai'i, & or @Hawaiian Airlines (while boarding our flight, from Stewardesses) & in Vegas & also all the way from, WDW = (Walt Disney World), one of the Happiest Places in the World :). So, since I've always forgot the name of this SHOP!!, Brain Fart moment (lol!) which I now know it's called, "Crafts Way!", in Aiea, I can NOW share this info to any Local Wahine, Stranger or whomever will ask me about MY, Aloha "Tiare flower w/Tahitian Pearl", & be on my merry way, as I can now respond about, where did you get your Pretty Flower (it's a fake Tiare!) lol from, etc, & I can proudly reply & say, it's from, "Crafts Way" in Aiea, where it's located right in the back side of *Cutter Ford*, again in Aiea, on *Hekaha St.*, this place is not hard to find @all!! As long as your familiar where the Aiea area is, & you see *Cutter Ford*, on the far right.....&* here is *Crafts Way* Address below 98-015 Kamehameha Hwy, Aiea, HI 96701, you have pretty much almost reached your Destination here, to "Crafts Way!" :), that'll be on the right side, on Hekaha St. Got lots of prkg here for this Store, U can prkg right in front of the Store too!! Getting back to "Crafts Way", my main thing I enjoy about this Store, is basically their pretty "Tiare Flower" w/the Tahitian Pearl, that's my all time Favorite Flower from here, & also their pretty, "Puakenikeni" flowers, & they are all *fake flowers* lol. Keep in mind, these flowers do come in mini Sizes also, to where you can put them in your ka'a, In the A/C vent area, & or where ever your heart desires to place them!! I like keeping an extra of my "Tiares" in my ka'a, becuz I do leave our hale sometimes without my fave "Tiare", get a lil bummed (Lol!), but knowing that I'll have an Extra in my ka'a, etc, then I can use my backup "Tiare" right from my ka'a & I'm a Happy Camper for the rest of my day/evening, yayyyyy!!! Lol! These "Tiare w/Tahitian Pearl" usually costs, $4.00-$5.00 for one Flower, depending which Sz. You may choose, where I don't like the really Nui =(Big) ones, I enjoy a more Med. SZ. "Tiare". The last time I was Shopping here, right before our last trip to the 9th Isle (10/6/2025), when I went into this Store, I couldn't find any of the "Tiares" that I liked, but not too Worry, becuz the Wahine @the Register told me, I can make them for you, so I told her that's So Cool, I browsed more around the Store, as she was putting together my "Tiares w/Tahitian Pearls together, I bought like 5 or 6, becuz I like sharing some with my Sister Randi :), as we both enjoy wearing our "Tiare" flowers daily!! It's also Cute, to put any flower, right on top of a "Makana" as well!!! You'll also find here, a very much wide Variety of range of Hawaiian Flowers here, (their all fake) lol, from Puamelias, Tiares, *fake hakus*, just keep in mind, their are a lot of flowers you will find here in this "Crafts Way!" Store, including plastic Hawaiian Leis too!! Five Stars from me, knowing I can always come back here for my, "Tiare w/Tahitian Pearl" Stick Flowers, & buy as much as I want, in the Future.... Haha! Lastly, I'm Hawaiian & I don't Usually like "fake flowers", including "fake leis", that's just me, I would definitely enjoy wearing my "Tiare" fresh, becuz the Smell of a real Tiare, is heavenly, just as the "Puakenikeni" Flowers as well, they both Smell Sweet, etc. But, knowing that when you do use a real "Tiare & or a real Puakenikeni", they will pretty much only last a day or two & then they will make (mah-keh). Okay den, all pau again with my long Cray (lol!) Review for this, "Crafts Way" Interesting bright color Store, filled with lots & lots of *Fake Flowers*, Plastic Hakus, Plastic Leis, which I'll always come back here again & again to pick up my "Tiares w/Tahitian Pearl Stick flowers from here!! Aloha Nui!!, from Chilly Hawai'i Nei :) \000/ read more

A spark of imagination... Crafts Way can guide you to that finished project with a whole garden filled with flowers of all kinds that are loved here in the islands. Located in Harbor Center in Aiea as soon as you drive up it's on your immediate right and with lots of parking provided by the center making it easy to shop and explore the vast selection of imitation flowers from a single stem to Haku and Kukui nut lei. Many are displayed in the classic clear floral container so that you can easily see each item with prices clearly noted with a very clean and organized showroom floor I was quite impressed of the selection and remembered in the past looking for some floral for crafting now know this would've been the perfect place for that and more. Thank you! read more

A Great Spot for Beautiful Island Flowers! If you're looking for great-quality artificial local flowers, this is the place to go! They offer a great selection and variety, perfect for your hair, as well as loose embellishments, headpieces, and leis. The flowers come in a wide range of colors and sizes, which is a huge plus. Popular styles like the tiaré, puakenikeni, and plumeria are available in multiple color options to suit any look or occasion. Prices are quite reasonable, especially considering each flower is handmade with care. One thing to be aware of: there is one staff member who can come off as a bit less welcoming than the rest. While it's something a few regulars have noticed, it doesn't take away from the quality and uniqueness of what this shop offers. Overall, it's still a fantastic place to find beautiful, island-inspired floral pieces. read more

As a dancer, this place was paradise for me to grab all the puas of my dreams. Prices are lovely and the selection is vast. Huge shoutout to the woman who was either a manager or owner (not sure and forgot to ask) who brought out a very specific flower I was looking for but hadn't been processed yet. Seriously made my day and I won't stop talking about it read more

I am traveling to the mainland for a wedding and knew a fresh lei would be able to make the trip. I didn't want to pay $65 + shipping for a fresh lei to be delivered either. Found this place and loved the selections. All for a decent price too. So much variety, you are bound to find something. read more

So many flowers!!!! Brings me back to the early 2000s when we used to all wear flowers in our ear at school lol. They have a WIDE variety of flowers in different styles, colors and sizes. Prices are so reasonable, you would probably pay more at the swap meet tbh. read more

Beautiful selection of puas! I was even able to find a little plumeria clip for my daughter. Card payment minimum is $10. So if you planning to pick up a few make sure to bring cash! read more

4 stars for the variety of foam flowers available. I was hoping to find clay flowers but they only had 3 small ones. Everything is displayed nicely and neat. This is definitely a great place to get your flowers and other Hawaii souvenirs & leis for a reasonable price. Customer service could improve. The workers weren't very friendly and didn't greet upon entering. read more

I grew up going here all the time and all I remember is how my mom used to buy flowers in bulk for me, my siblings and cousins because we were all in a dance group. She'd make our outfits and she'd make the flower bouquet for our hairs. There's a variety of selection to choose from and as of late they put the flowers in the containers and label with the price and type of style which I find very neat. This is a great place to get faux flowers and one of my favorite things is that they have $1 flowers so go crazy, why not? Lol I bought a bunch of flowers for my best friend who moved away a couple years ago as part of her care package with all her favorite goodies The service could be better but I believe there's only two people who are in the store working and one works on orders as the other works on the register. It would help if there was another register so that the worker who is in the back can come to the front to help when there is a long line. read more

I really wish I had better things to say bc I like their products but when the sales person cuts you off and makes faces that they are irritated having to provide service, just remember you can find similar if not the same products on Amazon. The interaction with the sales rep, makes it difficult to want to come back! read more

My go to for artificial flowers. Great quality and reasonably priced. There's lots of choices from clusters and clips to single flowers and lei po'os. read more

Rude! I tried ordering flowers online for my wedding and no one replied after a few days. When I called they didn't know what order I was calling for. Once they found it they asked for more time to determine what was available. After texting me with less than half of my order, they asked if I wanted to add to it. So I created another order to substitute flowers and again, they had less than half of the order. When requesting flowers out of the 2 orders I wanted, they rudely replied back that I needed to take everything in my 2 orders or just cancel. At this point, I'm done. Talk about no kind of customer service at all! read more

The shop has so much variety flowers and different leis you can imagine. Prices aren't bad either and the customer service is filled with aloha read more

The best place for all your hair flowers ! The assortment is large & many different styles & sizes to choose from. Parking & location is great. read more

Great selection of flowers. This is my go-to spot when I'm in need of new flowers to wear on a daily. I live in San Francisco & there's nowhere near me that has a surplus of selections like CW. So whenever I'm on island, which is usually 2-3 times a year...this is one of my regular stops I make. Price is on point! read more

They have every size, color, flower possible. We bought quite a few hair picks bc it's too hard to choose. The prices are very good too. The flowers we bought were foam, not clay type. Maybe they have those too? Highly recommended, so many options and reasonably priced. read more

Crafts Way - Leis galore - Flowers & Gifts Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

Wide variety of artificial Hawaiian flowers are sold here. They have a greater selection than those at Walmart and the swap meet. They had just about every color of plumerias including glittery ones, gardenias, pikake, hibiscus and the last 2 puakenikeni which I bought. I primarily came here with a diy project in mind, Disney Mickey ears. They can be used as hair accessories, decor, you name it, and they offer customized lei or lei po'o. The workers seemed to be jamming in the back room behind the register, with one worker at the cash register. There wasn't any workers on the floor, so once there was no line, I asked if they had more puakenikeni flowers which she confirmed they didn't. Bummers. I've been frequenting this shopping area a lot and was quite surprised to find this gem of a store. I can imagine how busy they are in the months prior to graduation season. The aisles are quite difficult to navigate with a stroller. read more

Only the most amazing Hawaiian flowers that all the flight attendants wear in their hair. You know how good they look on those long flights to/from Hawaii. read more

I had the intention this would be a craft store, especially one that could provide materials to craft a lei. The name of the business is misleading as it's strictly artificial flowers and leis. Don't visit with the intention you could gather materials for typical arts and crafts. I was hoping to find lei needles, twine, raffia, ribbon, yarn, but none of that was available. Being born and raised on the island, I found the items that were being sold were overcharged as well. In addition, they require a minimum of $10 purchase for debit and credit cards. However, debit card surcharging is illegal in all 50 states. read more

I could spend hours in here. There's always new styles of flowers, different colors and variety. Haku lei's, kukui nut lei's etc they have everything here. Pua's range from about $1-$8 I think but I've had mine for several years, I have baskets full. This is my happy place read more

Went there To pick up some foam flowers... good selection. Plumeriaʻs, Tiare, double Tiare, Puakenikeni, Red hibiscus. They had a Nice variety of colors and sizes... reasonably price. Good Customer Service. Going back for more later... read more

Want a pua (flower) for your hair? Then, head out over to CRAFTS WAY behind Cutter Ford Aiea. A very good friend of mine works here and so she recommended that I visit this location. I used to shop at their Ward Warehouse location, but it closed down. I only buy artificial flowers for my hair from this company because their flowers look just like the real flowers. I've gotten so many compliments! The moment I walked into this store, I was warmly greeted by a sweet salesperson. I couldn't believe all the beautiful artificial flowers they had in this store. They had plumerias, tiares, hibiscus flowers and other tropical flowers for your hair, leis, flowers for crafts and arrangements, floral jewelry and so many other things. I really wanted a specific tiare for my hair, but they were out of it. Another salesperson heard me and she asked if I would be willing to wait while they made me some. I told her that it would be nice of her to do that, and so I waited. Now, that's what I call great customer service! I was so happy that she went over and beyond to make me happy. So, if you need pua for your hair, go and check them out. You will not be disappointed! read more

I've been shopping at Crafts Way for years now. I can't even remember how I found the place, but I'm so glad that I did. I love walking in there and always finding something that I want to buy, wear, and love! I recently visited, about a week ago. Haven't been to their shop since before the Covid craziness. But I am so happy that they're making it, and are still up and running when so many small business here in Hawaii are struggling. So when I got there, and after months of not shopping, I enjoyed going through everything they had, and picking out my favorites to buy this time around. There are so many varieties of flowers, styles, and colors to choose from; all very beautiful and very hard to make up your mind. Everything is organized and nicely labeled with clear pricing. By the way, did I mention that their pricing is also amazing and very affordable? I even got my mother in law going a little crazy in there this time around. I can't wait for my next visit there, which will be a little closer to Christmas! :) Their products make beautiful gifts, and it's also something special to send to Mainland family and friends, or to take back as souvenirs if you're just visiting. I know this is one business I will always keep supporting. They are friendly and helpful, and I have all I can say is that you have to stop by and check them out when you're in the area. read more

I needed a haku headband for an upcoming graduation. I heard about Crafts Way, I was blown away by the assortment of artificial flowers, hair pieces, headbands, leis, haku, you name it.

When you're looking for those artificial flowers for picture taking, for friends overseas, or just for you to have because we love to be local and always have a flower in our ear; Crafts Way is there for you. They have a wide variety of flowers for your ear that look so real like our natural plumerias, tiares, hibiscus and many more. They have them in different colors, shapes and sizes. It doesn't stop there they also have artificial lei's, and hakus great for any occassion. I can definitely get lost in this store and rack up a good bill, but it is all for the best. The store owner was very nice. They also have a location at the Aloha Stadium and at Ohana Marketplace. It's that time of year and if you're sending gifts to family and friends who miss home why don't you add a pua (flower) to your gift. read more

Fake flower selection on point (and cheap too). Think of the fake plumeria that are sold at swap meets in the form of loose flowers and hair ties. This place is that AND more. They have different fake flower varieties, haku leis, leis, etc. The workers are really friendly and help you get what you need too! Definitely recommend coming here to bring a piece of aloha that doesn't die hehe. read more

Usually buy my flowers from here, large assortment, parking is easy. Today Customer service was horrible. Went in at opening and was the only customer in the store. No one asked if I needed help and when I did inquire about a certain flower I used to buy from there, the worker acted as if I was bothering her. Then they decide they need to sweep the floor right where I'm standing. read more

Great selection of pua's. So hard to choose on the selection and love the location lots of parking available

I have come here a few times now to shop for faux flowers and lei. My goddaughter loves Hawaii so we like to send her flower clips. At first I was going to buy singles, but then I came across the bagged sets of multiples. I picked up one of them with the assorted colored plumerias. Their family recently visited so I visited Crafts Way again to see if I could come up with a "haku lei" type situation. I picked up one with elastic with greens and pink spider lilies. It was missing something so I added a few flower clips to the front and it was perfect. She wore it to the luau and loved it! I also picked up a yellow carnation and tube rose lei for her brother. In my experience, the staff here will leave you alone to look around unless you look like you need help. (Which I sometimes do because I walk back and forth so many times lol) But when I have asked for help, they were nice about getting things down for me. read more

I think this store is like the warehouse store so you will find almost everything what you looking for. Most things are very reasonable and most of the flowers are very real looking!

Crafts Way is the go-to place if you want fake flowers! Their selection is the BEST! Every size, shape, color, and variety of flower I never even knew I wanted was here. And at reasonable prices! The store is air-conditioned, and very well organized. Parking is free and reasonably available. And the location is good right there in the Aiea area, off of Kamehameha Hwy, behind Cutter Ford, within the first warehouse structure on the right, on the ground level, alongside many other small businesses. read more

Products Quality and Inventory Variety; Customer consideration and service for specific requests; trying to meet your needs; easy parking and convenient location just after Pearl ridge mall behind Goodwill (across Waimalu shopping center); pricing is pretty fair essentially the best place to accommodate various artificial lei hakulei single flower hair decoration or accessorizing needs... They may still be able to send to mainland I needed different lei for a wedding and They were so kind to me with trying to help me find the (close enough to exact) color and size, while my niece FaceTime-toured their selection... whew they have so many wonderful choices I appreciate their patience and never seeming bothered at all, very professional. I just remembered: They are so knowledgeable, knowing the flower varieties and names and for their products what would look best for what you're trying to do, I Saved Time by asking their advice and my neice was very happy. read more

Crafts Way is faux flowers galore! I came here from a friend's recommendation to find some nice flower hair clips for work and future interviews. This place was a little hard to find for a townie like me, it's the left turn after Best Buy in Aiea/Pearl City. The store is on your right hand side after you enter the parking lot ahead. If you're looking for already arranged flower hair clips, they have an array of those in all shapes, sizes, and colors. They range from about $7 to $50. The store has shelves of loose flowers you can purchase or create your own arrangement piece. I could easily spend an hour just checking everything out. All sales are final. If you are an airline employee with an AOA badge, you can get 15% off purchases for showing it! PS: You can also find their products in International Marketplace in Waikiki or the Swap Meet. read more

Crafts Way - Sample of their pieces, about $20 for these - Flowers & Gifts Near Me - Aiea, Hawaii

I'm not the first person in the world to jump up to put flowers in my hair....which is "strongly suggested" at my work but not mandatory. Actually, to be honest, when it comes to me, I'm generally a "plain jane" and I usually just rubber band my hair or leave it down. In any case, I was talked to about putting flowers in my hair so I decided to come to the this store to check out the options and possibly purchase a couple. I ended up buying 4 items. Upon walking in, my first thought was an overwhelming, uh, where do I start? Everyone asked me if they could be of assistance but I thanked them and just started to browse. I think I walked around there for at least 20 minutes. I found single flowers, flowers on clips, bunches, loose flowers, headband's with flowers. I also learned that if you find something you like but it's not QUITE what you are looking for they can make a custom order. I didn't really get into that too much as I was very happy with the flowers that I did find. I left with 4 items, a single hibiscus on a clip, a headband with flowers on it, and 2 other larger clips with flowers. Because I'm not too well versed in the flower names, I can't really give more of a description...However, I know that I liked the colors and I will start wearing these on a regular basis for work. Now I know the best place to come for flowers for your hair and can definitely feel comfortable recommending this place. I like the variety and can't wait to go back! read more

Great assortment of items. If you get the flowers that are bagged, they're slightly cheaper. Bendy was awesome with assisting me in finding what I wanted and even went into back stock to check for more items for me. When they didn't have an item I wanted, they made it for me in a few minutes. Great staff and product. These will make great in expensive welcome favors for visitors. read more
