Great for freshies. Took a little longer to absorb fragrance though
Worked great for freshies. Took a little longer to absorb fragrance. Yes they smell when you get them. But you have to air them out a week or so. I used large baking tins and put parchment paper in bottom. I spread them out as much as possible so they would air out quicker. I started with one tin & ended up with 3. I mixed them around each day to air them out quicker. I think people don't take this step into consideration & don't realize it will have to be done. Freshies aren't a quick item to make. If you are going to make a lot. You need to take that step into consideration and always have a new batch airing out as you are soaking aroma beads. If not. You will be disappointed when you are done making your batches of Freshies & need to order more beads & will have to wait a week before you can soak them. Get a routine going. Understand that aroma beads come to you smelling funny. But the DO air out if you take the right steps & have patience. These worked fine for my Freshies. I was just making them for family but now I have requests. I will also add that you need to take into consideration that instructions online are suggestions. You will have to do several test runs to figure out your best oven temp & time to get the perfect freshie. Watch them closely. Use tips for release spray etc. Unless you are absolutely positive you know what you are doing. Keep in mind your first several batches if not first order of beads may be your test products. So go ahead & order extra or be patient. I've done all kinds of crafts etc. Freshies are not a fast product. They weren't that easy to perfect either. I'm still learning. Buy quality everything & research & join grouos. Then you won't be disappointed.
