Frequently Asked Questions
π΅ What is a freshie?
Freshies are made from plastic beads and fragrance oils. They are colored and then baked. Once baked, they are decorated and bagged. They are made to hang on your rear view mirror in your car, but some people use them in lockers, small rooms, or even as Christmas ornaments! π΅
β° How long do freshies last?β°
Freshies typically last 3-4 weeks, but this differs for everyone and depends on the scent you choose. Some tend to be stronger than others.
We recommend using vent clips alongside your freshie during the cooler months if you want a stronger scent.
You can become nose blind to the scent. We recommend changing up the scent you are using and placing the old freshie back in the bag it came in. Sometimes you get used to a certain scent and while it is still there, you can no longer smell it. π
What do I do with my freshie after the scent is gone?π€
There is no way to scent the freshie again once it is baked. The beads that are used can only absorb so much oil and once they are fully absorbed, no new scent can be added. If you can no longer smell your freshie after bagging it up and reintroducing it, itβs likely time for a new one! I recommend saving them to use as Christmas ornaments but they are also cute to hang in your car, even without scent.Β
Sensitive to scents but want a freshie anyways?Β
We can make a freshie unscented. It can still be colored and baked into a cute shape without a scent. π For an unscented freshie, choose a random scent and add βplease make my freshies unscented!β to your order notes!
