Reuse Foil Balloons
When the festivities are over and your foil balloons look a little flat, it may be easy to throw them away. But we think they are destined to be more important than landfills. For example, have you considered using foil balloons to make handy gift-wrapping paper? Or hang it on the wall as a piece of art? Below we share all the practical ways you can reuse yours too.
 
1. Use foil balloons as gift wrapping

Saving that special someone's gift until the last minute? Do not be afraid. When your cupboard is full of deflated foil balloons, you'll always have a handy wrapper to make this impromptu gift look like a well-thought-out one. 

Our top decorating tips? For the smallest gift wrap for all ages, use the silver side of the balloon, then decorate it with contrasting ribbon or crimp tape. If you're feeling fancy, you can even make gift bows out of foil balloons! 

2. Re-inflate of foil balloon

Of course, the most obvious way to reuse foil balloons is to fill them with helium to make them the centerpiece of the party again. In fact, there's no limit to how many times you can inflate them thanks to their clever valve system that remains intact after use. 

3. Making pom poms from foil balloons

Feeling creative? Practice your decor-making skills by turning those old balloons into beautiful pom-poms. With its shiny foil material, the balloon will help you create a dazzling display in six easy steps. Why not use them as top cake decorations? Or pair them with balloons and bunting for the ultimate selfie station at your party? 
 
4. Turn foil balloons into wire

Turn your foil balloons into Christmas tree tinsel for a more sustainable holiday this year. The sparkling, reflective properties of balloons make them perfect for adding a sparkling sheen to your branches. 

Just cut them into long, thin strips (you can glue two together to make longer strips) and make small scissors on the sides for added texture.
 
5. Use foil balloons for craft projects

The great thing about foil balloons is that their thin material is easy to stick to a surface with simple glue. This means you can use them to decorate cards, walls, shelves or anything else that needs a shimmer!
 
6. Or turn foil balloons into a work of art

Forget traditional canvas - use the silver side of foil balloons to create one-of-a-kind artwork. Stretch it on cardboard or knead it together to give the foil a unique texture, then loosen with your paint (we recommend acrylic). 

With your masterpiece finished and hanging on the wall, your guests will never know it started with a balloon!
