Vent Freshie - Silicone Molds

Vent clip silicone mold

How to Use the Mold:

1. Scent the Aroma Beads:

• Place unscented aroma beads in a container (like a mason jar or ziplock bag).

• Add 1–2 oz of fragrance oil per 1 lb of beads.

• Mix well and let them absorb the oil. This can take 1–7 days depending on your beads and oil. Shake or stir daily.

• Once they feel dry to the touch, they’re ready.

2. Add Color (Optional):

• Mix in mica powder or dye chips with the scented beads and stir until evenly coated.

3. Fill the Mold:

• Place your mold on a baking sheet lined with parchment or foil.

• Fill it with the scented beads—slightly mound them above the mold line (they’ll melt down a bit when baked).

4. Bake:

• Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C).

• Bake the beads in the mold for 8–10 minutes, or until they melt together. Don’t overbake—they can burn or discolor.

• Every oven is different, so watch closely.

5. Cool & Remove:

• Let them cool completely in the mold (usually 30–60 minutes).

• Gently pop them out once solidified.

6. Add a Hole (if needed):

• If your mold doesn’t have a built-in hole, you can:

  • Drill a small hole once cooled.

  • Stick a metal eye pin into the beads before baking to leave a hole.

7. Add String or Elastic:

• Tie a string through the hole so it can hang from a rearview mirror.
