Homemade Stress Heat Packs- Easy to Make- Simple homemade rice heat packs are easily heated in the microwave for up to an hour of heat. Ingredients/Materials One 5-pound bag of white rice (might not all be used) A 12-inch square piece of material. Ive used cotton, old sheets or pillowcases, or flannel (see other variations below) Thread A sewing machine or a needle Instructions: Fold the material in half with right sides together and sew two of the sides so that three sides are closed and one smaller end is left open. In other words, if it is folded, sew the bottom and the long side so that it becomes a tube that is roughly 12 inches by six inches with one six inch side open. Turn inside out so that the rough ends are hidden. Fill the tube with rice until it is about ⅔ full. Fold the remaining side in so that the rough ends are hidden and sew closed. To use: Heat in the microwave on high for 60 seconds or until desired temperature. For a more in-depth tutorial, I suggest this one. wellnessmama/24601/reusable-rice-heat-packs/
