How to Add Mylar to Balloon Garlands
This quick video will walk you through how to attach mylar accents to your balloon garland.
PRO TIP : If you are using larger shapes that can’t be tied or wrapped in, GoGo Glam uses a hot glue gun with a LOW TEMP setting to attach mylar shapes to larger builds! Put your glue on the latex first and then set mylar. If the glue gun is burning your fingers it is TOO HOT. It should be warm and melted, but cool enough to touch.
