Yes I have a massive amount ready as gifts for autumn. I think the buckwheat holds heat better or maybe it’s the fabric choices that makes a difference?
Thanks ❤ I’ll make one as there are a lot on the market and some are poor quality sticking and fall apart. Your idea is wonderful. This should help with my arthritis in my hip at night 😇
I made neck wraps with channels & used rice. It has been the only time using my triple stitch function on my machine to really reinforce the ends. Thx as I have learned from you that wheat works too. I put lavender essential oil in my rice too for the aromatherapy affect. Also, when making trivets I use a kitchen mix like clove, cinnamon or even lemon essential oil so when the hot casserole dish hits it the aroma escapes. 👍✅💟
Oh I’m so glad you liked my video! Rice works wonderfully - I use that for my eye pillows as well as lavender. I love the idea for the trivets! That would make the house smell beautiful 🥰
Thanks for commenting! I’ve only just seen this but yes I absolutely can! I’m refocusing on my TH-cam channel this year so thanks for the suggestion and I will add it to my program list
I use cherry pits. It only takes me two or three years to save my pits. I also get family members to save them for me too lol . I don’t know if you can buy cherry pits or not, but they are my favorite because rice seems too heavy
Hi I’m sorry I’ve only just seen this comment. I would suggest just printing a little instructions sheet. I include the following on mine: hear in 30 second increments with a glass of water in the microwave with heat bag, allow to cool completely before covering or storing. Do not over heat as this is a fire hazard
You’d just need to avoid getting it dirty. You can wipe down with a damp cloth but couldn’t wash it as the wheat grains would go mouldy. Some people cover their wheat bag with a tea towel - the other option is to use plain fabric for the main wheat bag and then create a cover for it that is removable and washable
From memory this one is around 15cm x 40cm but you can make it any size you like. If it’s for around your neck, actually put the fabric around your neck to get an idea of how long it should be
I’m just watching this & wondering what wheat do you use? I’ve made these from rice & lentils but not from wheat. I make removable covers for washing & make the actual rice holders from nice muslin.
Thanks so much! This is nice and easy to understand for a beginner.
Thank you for walking us through. Wanted to know how you properly sewed the opening! Now I've got it!
Thanks for the clear tutorial. Gonna make some now. I like the water tip I'd never heard that. ❤
You’re welcome 😊
Thank you for your video, I have only tried Buck wheat . Didn't know I could use other types of wheat or rice. Thanks again👍🏻
You’re so welcome! Yeah there’s so many grains you can use. I hope you’ve had fun making!

@@MaximumCC buckwheat is a grain I haven’t tried yet so not sure but fabric thickness definitely plays a role in length of heat

Thanks heaps!
I've always kept my hear packs in the freezer. And if needed to be heated I can, but I don't need to worry about trying to cool it down
Such a great idea
Clever!
Thanks
You’re welcome :)
love your energy! thank you for the video xx
You are so welcome and thanks for your beautiful comment x
Thank you for video. Would you be able to do a video on how to make a removal cover for this one?

That is BRILLIANT!!!
Thank you for sharing
You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!💕
I really like this project. I'd like to make some as gifts. How to you present the heating instructions? Thank you.

Nice.
Thanks for watching ☺️
How much do you sell the wheat bags for.. The size in the demo. Tganks
Hi I don’t actually sell these anymore but when I did, this size was $35 :)
What would you do if it got dirty, can you machine wash and dry it?
You’d just need to avoid getting it dirty. You can wipe down with a damp cloth but couldn’t wash it as the wheat grains would go mouldy. Some people cover their wheat bag with a tea towel - the other option is to use plain fabric for the main wheat bag and then create a cover for it that is removable and washable
Does the wheat have to be cleaned?
No, you don’t want to wet it as it could go mouldy.
I made this at school
Oh well done!! That’s awesome
Are the dimensions you use ?
From memory this one is around 15cm x 40cm but you can make it any size you like. If it’s for around your neck, actually put the fabric around your neck to get an idea of how long it should be
