ScentsandMore Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Is there a fast way to dry the air freshener blanks? I am going to a family reunion this Saturday and a cousin just sent me an e-mail asking if I could bring some car air fresheners hyang tags. Of course I don't have any made. Do you think the scent would be okay if I made them up and laid on a piece of wax paper or foil on top a piece of cardboard and put them in my car where it gets hot?

Chauna1 Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 If you scent them tonight then redo them tomorrow early then they should be dry enough for you to package them up tomorrow evening. Maybe put a fan nearby to help with the drying process. I usually leave mine on a metal pan or on cardboard. HTH,Chauna Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScentsandMore Posted June 20, 2008 Author Share Posted June 20, 2008 Thank you both. I just got home from work (9:44 PM) off to the basement to put my first coat on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
grama Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 Use your hole puncher and punch your hole in them where you will be running raffia etc before soaking. After they have soaked for a little while I take them out and take a wire clothes hanger and straighten it out and run it through the hole in freshner. Hook hanger over a shelve, put newspaper down and hang up to dry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hook hanger over a shelve, put newspaper down and hang up to dry.That's a great idea for drying them on the clothes hanger. That way both sides will dry at the same time Thanks for sharingSandy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alajane Posted June 25, 2008 Share Posted June 25, 2008 The replies to this post helped me figure out why I wasn't crazy about these air fresheners. I always just put oil on them once--but I did saturate the paper. For those who apply several coats, do you spray it lightly or saturate it?Maybe I never got enough FO on them!
