What a beautiful experience! Ordering process was so smooth! Owner, Justin, picked up immediately to answer my questions. He accommodated same day order which was just a 5 hour notice. Pick up was at a house in Ewa. The decor box, wood keychain, and the overall opening experience was opening like an high end item. Everything was so professionally made. Although the items may have been tossed around in the bag, the chrysalis kept intact. The live butterfly crawled onto finger for a good 20-30 seconds before flying away. It was a perfect moment. Justin explained the butterfly is best to keep its wings closed together in the flat box than fluttering in a cube box for its own well-being. Butterfly release was more time sensitive for live butterfly. Will be a returning customer again soon.

Are you looking for a beautiful and unique favor for your next party? Look no further! We included these gorgeous chrysalis boxes in our wedding and gave these out as favors to our guests, and they were thrilled! Over the next couple days, our guests with kiddos (as well as adults!) sent us pictures of their butterfly release and shared with us how much they enjoyed the experience. Our favor boxes came with a card with a photo of us and a personalized message to our guests. He also included easy to follow instructions on releasing the butterfly at home. The gorgeous clear boxes were packaged so nicely inside a beautiful neutral toned paper box, which matched perfectly with my wedding decor! We also did a butterfly release at our actual wedding ceremony. The butterfly slowly walked out of her box (in model fashion) and onto my bouquet. She hung out there, warmed up her wings, then flew away. It’s like someone had trained her for her modeling debut! I can’t wait to see the photos/video that were captured by our vendors from this special moment!!All in all, I would definitely recommend Henry’s chrysalis boxes to anyone looking for a special gift, party favor, photo shoot prop, or just a fun learning experience for kids!

Such an amazing idea. I've probably bought about 15 or more chrysalis from Henry by now. They make such great gifts and everyone I've gifted them to absolutely loved it. Henry himself is such a sweet kind person. It's amazing to see how far he's come.

Absolutely phenomenal experience. So much thoughtfulness and aloha is put into these little butterflies I am so grateful for the work that they do. We loved watching our baby grow and setting him free! I definitely recommend this for all ages!

I purchased 4 monarchs as a Christmas gift for a family with two girls. Instead of buying them things, I wanted to gift them something that would be an experience or memory. I first saw them on Instagram because some other friends had ordered it, and it looked magical to be able to release them. I was later served up an ad for their Christmas boxes, and I couldn't resist! Everything from the ordering process to the delivery process was very easy. Henry was a pleasure to work with and was very accommodating. At first, I had the delivery scheduled for my place, but because I had some unexpected surgery, I needed to have it sent directly to the recipient's house. He made the change with no problems, and the gifts were delivered as promised. I love this business, and what they're doing to release these beautiful creatures into the wild. Now, when I see monarch butterflies flitting around, I think of Paradise Monarchs, and the wonderful friends I shared the experience with. I highly recommend them!

Aloha this is Helen & Elijah and we purchased 3 beautiful butterflies from paradise monarch. Everything went smoothly as we brought them back with us to the Big Island & gifted two to our niece & nephew. We loved the whole experience, it was our first time getting to witness such a special & beautiful transformation. I’ve always had a special thing for butterflies because they have beautiful colors/patterns & it fascinates me. We’ve had our butterfly since the 18th of Dec until the 23rd then it hatched that day, so we had her for 6 days. We decided to bring her down to the beach & release her there because it was warmer & better weather conditions because where we live in Waimea it’s way colder. I would highly recommend this wonderful experience to anyone who’s a butterfly lover like I am. Mahalo paradise monarch

This was such a wonderful gift for the Christmas season. I discovered them at the local farmers markets and gifted a couple boxes to the children in my family. Such a novel and thoughtful gift that goes to a great cause! Everything was perfectly timed as advised and everyone could not have been happier. One even emerged on Christmas morning! <3 The reservation and transaction process went smooth, and always accompanied with the best service and attitude. Mahalo!

Henry's beautiful chrysalis boxes were the highlight of my Christmas gifts. So much so that I had to come back and buy more for the same families because their kids loved it so much! Great gift for families to enjoy all together! #supportlocal

I originally found out about Paradise Monarchs on Instagram. I loved the idea of helping with the conversation of the butterflies. The first time I purchased a chrysalis was at the Kakaako farmer's market. Henry is so friendly and great at explaining everything! He always makes sure to answer any questions you have. The chrysalis boxes make such a unique gift and you won't be disappointed!

I would 100% recommend this company. We got our girls each a chrysalis, they were estimated to hatch on Christmas and they did! They were so excited watching them and learning their process. When we let them out they were very friendly, and they stuck around on our aloe plant for a full day. We all loved the experience and opportunity to help restore the monarch population!

Starting from the ordering with Henry and the ease of process to delivery! His smile and happy attitude inspired me!! I would give them 5stars+ and will definitely recommend the beautiful moments everyone shared with me!
