On the island we use different plants, fibers, and dried leaves to make crowns, leis, costumes, and decorations. Two of my favorite fibers and dried leaves come from the coconut tree and banana tree. The natural woven coconut fiber makes an excellent material for costumes and different craft projects.
In this craft project I have chosen the coconut fiber tissue to decorate some recycled yogurt glasses I had laying around my home. The small glasses are excellent to burn lemongrass candles in. The lemongrass candles help control the mosquitoes in and around your home. In my garden, I plant lemongrass to keep the mosquitoes away from my home.
