Aroma Ornie Supplies
Aroma
Beads can be used to make scented "ornament" air fresheners! Air fresheners are a hot item these days, and our Aroma Ornies™ have huge
advantages! Aroma Ornies™ are translucent, so they look beautiful in the
sunlight, they can be easily colored a rainbow of
shades, and they hold a larger fragrance load for a stronger & longer
lasting scent! They can be made in any shape you want, hang them in a sunny
window for an even stronger fragrance release!
*Caution! The inside of an automobile can reach extreme temperatures in hot weather.
We recommend testing your ornaments in such conditions before selling just to
be safe! If you make the Ornies too thin they may melt in the sun!
Directions for making Aroma Ornies:
- Make your scented & colored Aroma Beads using the Aroma Beads instructions.
- Choose metal cookie cutters in the shapes & size you want for your ornament.
- Lay the cookie cutter on a metal, non-stick cookie sheet.
- Fill each shape with beads, completely covering the bottom with a layer about 1/4" deep. *If you want a hole in the top for hanging, stand a flat head nail on it's head where you want the hole to be.
- Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 5 - 10
minutes or until you can see that the beads have melted together. Baking
times will vary with different ovens.
Watch them carefully!
*Note: They will not be smooth like glass, they will be bumpy. - Remove from oven with pot holders, and set on stove top
to cool. A small amount of smoking is normal when they first come out.
Allow tray to cool completely before touching! - Carefully remove the cookie cutters. *Cooling in the freezer for a few minutes, helps them release from the cookie cutters easier!
- Once you remove the cutters, your ornament will be
stuck to the pan, but it will peel off the non-stick metal fairly easily.
Don't be alarmed if it feels stuck. They may feel like they won't budge at
first, but once you start to pull it up it will peel off.
- Peel the shapes off the sheet, and they are done! You can use a sharp tipped object like a nail to make a small hole near the top, and string some thin cord through to hang it with. Or try using a heavy duty office hole punch for thicker ribbon!
