Do you want them to be visibly wrinkly, or do you just want the softness/stretchiness of old wrinkly balloons? If you just want the stretchiness, you can try heat stretching them. If you want them to be actually wrinkly, there isn't a fast way - the best way is to just leave them overinflated for a good amount of time.Comment

Freezer or ice water should do the trick.
The air inaide will compress making it shrink, though it will expand again.
Really anything cold will work, have you seen people putting liquid nitrogen in balloons before? It's pretty cool.Comment

Re: How do I make balloons old and wrinkley fast
This question reminds me of a presentation I had to give for a science project.
Without going in too much detail. I had made a model of the behavior of a soap bubble. Basically the bubble could take three stages: "normal", "wrinkled" and "burst". My teacher gave me the advice to explain this by using balloons.
I should bring one wrinkled balloon, a normal balloon and during my presentation blow a balloon until it bursts.
At that time I was not as confident as I am now about my fetish. So I didn't want to blow to pop a balloon in front of the class. The idea of having to that would at that moment have caused so much stress that it would influence the quality of my presentation. So in the end I only used the balloon as a metaphor.
I now still wonder if the teacher suggests this every year?Comment
