Fairfield's Poly-Fil Poly Beads are the ideal premium-quality stuffing beads for soft, squishy pillows and arts and crafts projects. Crafted from 100% polystyrene, the foam beads work best when combined with stretchy polyester fabrics. Apart from making great pillow stuffing, the beads are also great for making floam, slime, sensory balls, stress balls, holiday decorations, snow, conducting science experiments, and stuffing handmade animals. The mini-sized poly foam beads are safe for use in creative projects; however, they are not recommended for children under the age of 5. Our stuffing beads are washable, but only after they are inside a finished project. They are available in 2.8 oz bags. Fairfield's Poly-Fil Mini Poly Beads are made in the USA.
