Cut balloon.
Cut the mouthpiece off of the balloon. Make sure that you use a balloon that is big enough to stretch over your container.
STEP 2
Place onto container.
Stretch it over the container. You might need to put the container between your knees to help stabilize it before you secure it with tape.
STEP 3
Tape it down.
Tape the edges of the balloon down onto the container. Go around a few times so it stays on securely.
