Trim the bottom of the sealed "spout". Refill with helium. Seal "spout" with a hot curling iron.

Any store that sells balloons will usually refill the balloon for about .50 cents. They last a couple of weeks.
When you want to store it you can let it deflate naturally or put a pin hole in it and use a wooden hoop used for needle point and frame the balloon to display or just save and it keeps it's shape.

Usually they can be refilled once with helium at a store that sells helium balloons, however, they do sometimes pop when being refilled, so that is risk you must take.

RE: Reusing a Mylar Balloon
just insert a drinking straw into the opening. Be sure to get a straw that is long enough to go all the way up into the balloon. Squeeze out the air until the balloon is completely flat, which may take a while depending on the size of the straw. If you keep the balloon flat, or store it in a file folder, it will stay nice until you are ready to get it reinflated!

Hi Shena,
Did you know they can be refilled? Otherwise, turn it upside down, cut into strips and hang from the ribbon in a tree. It will flutter in the breeze and remind you of the special reason you got the balloon in the first place. You can also use it as wrapping paper for a small gift. Enjoy!
