I made these years ago and had the same concerns for the rice/beans.. I experimented a bit and unless the rice/beans get soaked and stay in the water for some time, they will be alright.. a little rain wont ruin the beans. If they are in ur pockets and ur hands covering them..( as they are meant to be.... they should be safe enough.... I love these... might be time to make another !

Thanks! What a great idea. I've made the neck warmers ( the hot/cold packs ) for years now. This is a natural extension of those and I never thought of it. What great little presents for friends. Thanks!

That is a neat idea. I think I will make some for gift and for me to use also. I have Raynauds in my hands and cold weather is hard on them. They will be perfect to pop in the microwave at work and keep in my gloves while I am waiting for my car to heat up.
