Re: Bead Pillow

Well, yesterday I made my first pillow following this recipe. I am sorry to say it did not work for me. My bead particles are 2 small and end up falling thru the screen holes. No harmth done, I have other uses for that plastic screen anyway.

Re: Bead Pillow

I would recommend you use 14 mesh plastic canvas. I've made quite a few of these and that hole size seems to work the best. The higher the number, the smaller the holes.

Re: Bead Pillow

This is all very inventive and all, but you can buy the beads in a sheet form as well... I know Heartfelt has them:
Mainpage and the 65% ones

I guess these are even more effective

Re: Bead Pillow

I want to buy it in my country, because of shipping prices. So I need to know where to find it
Actually I need anything to balance the humidity of my 25 cigars Tupperdor But I don't know what kind of stores I need.

Nice but if you were to use these sheets to humidify 5 cubic feet (vino) it would take close to 23 of them versus one pound of beads. Unless my calculations are off.

Re: Bead Pillow

I had my wife pickup a pair of $2 panty hose when she was out one day and I used those as my bead pillow!

Check it out...

Variation on the theme

So I took the idea for the plastic mesh and modified it a bit. This box is uses a Ziploc tupperware container ($2.50 for 4), plastic cable ties ($2) and plastic screen (33 cents each). End result: priceless...
