I need....
I don't know where to put this, but does anyone know where to get this stuff: it like metallic tissue paper...we want to use it to wrap wine bottles...like the stuff that they wrap the weight in for balloon holders..
Okay, I realize I'm probably not making any sense, but hopefully someone will understand what I need...
Thanks girls

Do you mean mylar?
If you're planning to use them for wine bottles, I'd start with liquor stores - they usually carry some sort of digt wrapping (bags, etc.) since many people give wine as gifts.

Often they sell in in packages as a type of tissue paper. you could try any of the local stores... if Wal Mart has it, it is prob. the least expensive

Ditto!
I was also going to say take a trip down to your local liquor store. I'm sure they could spare some and if they couldn't, they may be able to order some for you when they do their next order.

just a quick thanks to everyone..I actually did just call the liquor store, they have silver mylar bags that they use for gift wrapping they said they would just give me some since we bought two cases of wines, and kegs for the rehearsal party...and the list could go on...I really want the black..but if I can't find any cheap I'm just going to take the free!!!
Anyways, for little gifts to give everyone that has done any "extras" and for gifts to the guest book attendant, candlelighters etc....we are giving them bottles of wine...we had personalized labels made and i found bottle stoppers with a chrome heart on top...I'm sure you've all seen them...but with the discounts on the wine I got they ended up being $6 gifts...so I'm pretty excited
