Water Crystals, also known as "smelly jelly air fresheners" are tiny crystals used to make water based air fresheners. They were originally developed to help soil retain water in drought conditions because they are able to retain hundreds of times their weight in water and expand into clear gel crystals. Other uses of Aqua Crystals are Cool Ties, aroma therapy smelly jellies, decorative candles, jelly baths, pet cooling mats, water crystals, artificial fish aquariums, hot packs, cold packs, paraffin bath replacement, and novelty lighted ice cubes. Using them is simple. Follow the instructions below and create your own projects! For beautiful water based dyes to use with your water crystals, click here.

Smelly-Jelly Jars and Lids

Jars and lids are ordered separately and the lids come in many colors. The disks at the bottom of list are so that the contents don't spill out of the jar and also so that your product stays smelling fresh. We advise against using 2 1/2" round labels as the label may become wet and fall off the lid. Note: Plastic may melt when it comes in contact with smelly jelly, so don't fill the jar too full.
