This is a community-based program that helps people during the holidays. You can find them on the beaches, you can find them in the craft stores and you can find them on the free necklaces from Hilo Hattie. Shells can be found for free or bought cheaply to make Christmas ornaments and presents for loved ones in the islands or on the mainland. With a little glue, some Spackle and a lot of imagination, you can make gifts with aloha. There's 14 days until Christmas, and shoppers are stressing over the countdown.
Pleasing presents are either hard to find or too expensive.
The holiday search is worse for those who don't know what to buy. So here are some hot new gifts at bargain prices. Or maybe you just hate Christmas shopping and equate it to swimming in a pool full of piranhas. For those who hate shopping, there is good news. Ka Leo welcomes your questions and comments.
