water gel beads??

Is anyone else going to use water gel beads in their centerpieces or seen them used in person? I have only seen them online and I think they are so pretty but I wasn't sure if they had the same effect in person. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    I'm using them. I've already put them in water and they are gorgeous. I'm filling my vases with sand in the bottom, sea shells from mine & FH's massive collection of sea shells as the next layer, then the beads on top (sand, shells, & ocean illusion).

    Warning, people will play with them, squish them and throw them haha... they're awesome though, I was at a banquet where they were used and at my friends rehearsal dinner. Someone ate one there...

    Yes, we will be using them in our centerpieces. you can go to your local Dollar Tree and get a pack or two. I did and tested them for their longivity; they lasted over two weeks.

    We just did ours that morning. A day or so is probably enough time.
