I'd been meaning to make some rice filled heat packs for a while. They're such a simple, inexpensive gift, but really nice and practical. These are a fairly self explanatory project, but there's a nice tutorial at Elm Street Life.
Rice pack handwarmers. |
I'd never thought of making rice pack hand warmers, (to go in your coat pockets,) but after seeing several variations on Pinterest, (like this one, at Jane Avion,) I decided they'd make clever little stocking stuffers. I think I'll tie them up with ribbon, and add a little tag with instructions, (since at first glance, they just look like bean bags...)
These are great assembly line projects.
I need to make these for my sister and mom. My mom has a bad back and my sister has fibromygia (sp). now if I can find a sewing machine to borrow :)
ReplyDeleteI like the handwarmer idea! We like to snuggle with the big ones on our laps when it's cold.
