Pilljill Posted September 3, 2008 Share Posted September 3, 2008 Has anyone ever changed the color of their aroma beads after they have already dried? I just used the last of my beads last night and I need some more navy blue ones. I thought I might try to add some navy dye to my light blue beads. My only concern is that it may change the fragrance since they are already dry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wick'n'Wax Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 You'll probably end up with a mix of dark and light blue, if you try though I'd definately put the colour in with a little more fragrance oil, to help it mix around further.Then give a mighty good shake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MissMary Posted September 4, 2008 Share Posted September 4, 2008 Agree, you'll probably end up with a mix batch, but after they are dry can hold a bit more FO (I do this normally anyway, helps pack a bigger punch) and shake shake shake shake shake shake!

number2of7 Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 From experience, yes, you will have a "tie-dyed" batch of beads if you add dark blue dye to light blue beads. They look kinda cool to me, but not everyone thinks so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TraciS Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 I always do them in shades of a color. Like 4 drops, then 3 then 2 then 1 in 4 batches and mix together. Then a little mica and they really shimmer!Can the beads be rescented when they lose their scent? Anyone tried it? I wish I a bag that had lost their scent to try it out.
