Welcome Back
In today’s post I would like to share a picture of the Rice Heat therapy bag I made a couple of weeks ago.
Handwarmer
As regular readers will know, I struggle with joint pain and find wheat bags really soothing. It’s almost impossible however to find them un-scented! The one I have is getting on a bit now and I was getting really worried what I would do if it wore out.
I found a great tutorial for how to make a rice heat therapy bag and modified it both inside and out and created this handwarmer. It’s great, for one minute in the microwave it stays hot for about 20 minutes. I’m working on designs and trialing different fillings. If you are Celiac then the option of filling your bag with rice is a safe option as the store-bought bags are often wheat filled.
Best wishes and thanks for reading, see you soon

That is a very pretty fabric Billie. I can see you starting a new business selling these heat therapy bags 🙂 Rice is cheaper to buy than wheat at the moment but what aout the weight difference? Rice, being a denser cereal, would be heavier wouldn’t it? I just wondered if the weight difference would add to your joint pain.

Hi Lynn
Its all a work in progress at the moment. Testing different grains to see if there is a difference in the amount of time they hold the heat. 🙂
Not compaired it weight for weight to be honest
Best wishes
