them...along
: with all the other projects planned for the weekend...

I know those warmers are great, point of note DO NOT microwave or you
will have silicone all over the microwave, boil them in water if yo
uwant to reuse them. Let them cool about 12 hours or so before re
boiling. The microwave thing happened to me that is why :-) My
husband got me ear muffs that are similar I tried them today it was
15 degrees out here in CT. And my ears were toasty.... Perfect for
this time of year or winter hennaing blessings, Christine
