Hi, I have recently tried these and think they are great!!!
I was thinking, surely they can be used for other purposes to make your house smell nice, all I can think is put them in a small net bag and put them in clothes draws.
Anyone have any other ideas?!!

No hacks them, just washing it is 😱

Yes, I use a little in small bags in the airing cupboard where I store linens and towels, also in drawers. It is lovely to put a small sprinkle in the vacuum cleaner bag - if not bagless. It releases the scent when you vacuum.

I don't actually use them in the washing machine though!

I use them in my bagless hoover. Definitely smells much nicer whilst hoovering.

I put them in a little tie top bag and hang them off the wardrobe rails.

Great idea. Where do you get the little bags from ?

I put them in my Hoover filter,
In my mop bucket,
Drop some on the carpet and leave for a minute,
In the bottom of the bin.
As you can tell I love the smell of them

In my hoover bag and in little mesh bags where we keep shoes and in some drawers. I tied one to the rail in the wardrobe too.

Mesh bags were actually wedding favour bags off ebay, a few quid for 10 I think.

Honestly, it's really recommended that you just use them for their intended purpose. They're highly concentrated and designed to be put in a washing machine and dissolved in litres of swooshing water

I know it's the Hinch effect and people want a highly artificially scented home but I can't think of anything worse than sitting down with my head next to a cushion stuffed with these beads
