trash, treasure, good: Balloons

Balloons...

good for decor.


good for photography.

Anything else?

Yup! Good for compost :)

Besides using latex balloons for decor and photography, how would YOU use and re-use these colorful lovely things? Can you guys think of any craft projects?

A little heart-felt note: Please think over the uses of your stuff before throwing them away. This way, you won't miss out on awesomely unique opportunities and will help keep the landfills' trash to its minimum :) If interested, a lot more unexpected trash-able items that we could re-route to the compost bins can be found here!
