Take the balloon and place it around the bottle opening, this creates a small funnel so you can easily add candy to the inside of the balloon. Once you have placed your treats inside carefully remove the balloon from the bottle and add air.

Now place the embroidery floss inside of your water and glue mixture and stir for a few seconds. Once the floss is completely soaked wrap it around the balloon until it’s evenly covered. Let It dry then pop the balloon.
