Hawaiian Lei Vases is a local business that creates handmade, unique lei vases inspired by traditional Hawaiian designs. Their products capture the beauty of Hawaiian culture, offering both vibrant and subtle glazes that beautifully complement flowers like plumeria and puakenikeni. The business wanted to expand its online presence to reach both local and international customers by showcasing their one-of-a-kind creations on a dedicated website.

Challenges

When Hawaiian Lei Vases approached us, they faced several challenges. They needed a website that could be launched quickly due to time constraints, but they were working with a limited budget. The initial goal was to create a functional website that would allow them to sell their products online, while the business owner worked on finalizing the brand message and design aesthetic.

The initial design and launch of the website was done quickly, with the understanding that it lacked much of the branding and detailed design elements the client envisioned. However, the site served its immediate purpose, providing the business with an online presence and a way to sell their vases until they were ready for a full redesign.

Solutions Provided

Our team at The Speed of Web took on the challenge of launching the first version of the website under a tight timeline. We focused on creating a functional and easy-to-navigate site using WordPress, while integrating WooCommerce for e-commerce functionality. The initial site met the business’s immediate needs, offering a platform for showcasing and selling products to a broader audience.

Once the business owner had a clear vision of the message they wanted to put forth, we worked closely with them to plan a complete redesign. Over the course of a single weekend, we transformed the site, implementing new branding, custom design elements, and optimizing the site for both performance and SEO. The redesigned site now reflects the authentic beauty of Hawaiian Lei Vases and provides a smooth shopping experience for customers worldwide.

Results

After the redesign, Hawaiian Lei Vases saw a significant improvement in their online presence. The new site received positive feedback from customers for its design and ease of use. The client’s products are now reaching a broader audience, helping them grow their business both locally and internationally.
