Water Beads

Crystal Clear Water Beads

Create a stunning centrepiece with our crystal-clear water beads — the perfect base for floating candles. Once hydrated, these beads form a smooth, gel-like texture that gently suspends your candles while adding an elegant, shimmering look. Ideal for vases, bowls, or decorative displays, you can also nestle in dried or faux flowers, shells, or seasonal accents for a beautiful, customised touch. Simply soak, style, and enjoy the soft floating glow.

One teaspoon of dry beads expands to approximately four cups when fully hydrated.

Each bag contains enough beads to make around twenty-four cups of hydrated water beads.

How to Hydrate Your Water Beads

1. Measure
   Add approximately 1 teaspoon of dry water beads to a large bowl or container. This small amount will expand significantly!
2. Add Water
   Pour in 4–5 cups of clean water (preferably room temperature). You can always add more if needed.
3. Soak
   Let the beads sit and absorb water for 4–6 hours. They’ll grow into smooth, jelly-like spheres.
4. Drain & Use
   Once fully hydrated, drain any excess water. Your beads are now ready to use! Gently pour them into your vase or bowl, add your floating candle, and decorate with flowers, shells, or anything you love. 

Tip:

Store unused hydrated beads in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks. If they begin to shrink, simply rehydrate with a bit more water.
