recycle mylar balloons as gift sack/wrap!

When you have a celebration & it come to a close, or when you"ve had balloons around the house for a while & they have lost there "juice" the first thought is to pop & toss.
Well ive found a great way to reuse them.
To deflate the air simply make a small snip with a pair of sizzors and squish out all the air. Fold them up & place them with your gift wrapping goodies.

When you need a gift bag or sack for a gift basket, special gift, or an off shaped item thats hard to wrap regularly.
simply cut a slit in the top to of the balloon and split the seem big enough to insert your goodies inside, twist the top & secure with tape/ribbon. Its more sturdy then tissue paper & gives a nice sparkle & design. (Even more great when the balloons have a design or words on them)
You can gift as is, or place inside a gift bag.

You can also cut the entire balloon open if your looking to wrap and not bag.
