5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing! July 6, 2011

We purchased the water pearls as part of the center piece for my daughters wedding reception. They were amazing! We did a trial run on June 16 to test the longevity of the product and how long it took for them to expand. I would suggest a full 48 hours for them to expand but believe it or not, they are still in good shape today. Just as a side not, use Kool-Aid to add color to your beads. The color is more vibrant.

My goodness! I didnt realize how so little could go so far. These tiny little marbles absorb water and amaze me at their end size! I couldnt really figure out how to get them to dehydrate, but I love knowing that they are biodegradable. They lasted for weeks on end to the point where I just has to part with them. I still cant believe I got so many bags! These are going to last me forever unless I find a use for them all! lol The bags do come with instructions, and it does warn that it takes about a day for them to grow to full capacity...but I would suggest doing a tester first so you can get the feel for it. The first time I did it I used too many beads and it overflowed (and I hardly put any in there)!
I used these for my wedding center piece. They filled a bowl that I placed a waterproof light at the bottom of that I also bought on Amazon (and you can see the example in the photo for this product). The beads reflect the colorful lighs beautifully! I placed the bowl on a mirror to add to the sensation of it all.
The only complaint I have is at how easy they are to break apart. If I want to put a light at the bottom as a tester for example, moving the jelly beads around breaks them apart when I take the light out, etc. Putting flowers in does the same thing. So just beware. The broken peaces do not look so good floating around :(
