Reusing Mylar Balloons

October 5, 2010

Photo of three star shaped mylar balloons.Both of my kids recently had birthdays, complete with Mylar balloons. My friend was helping me clean up, and gave me this tip. Cut old Mylar balloons into squares and use to wrap small gifts for other birthday parties. Great idea, isn't it?
