1

Open the can with a can opener that rounds off the edges. (Attention: for sharp edges there is risk of injury!)
Rinse the empty can and dry.

2

Paint about a third of the can with wood glue.

4

Keep the can with the glue over the bowl with the grains and sprinkle grains over the glue.

5

Push the grains slightly with your fingers and push something right if necessary. This is very good, because the glue is not immediately tight!

6

Then brush another piece with glue and repeat the process until the can is glued with grains all around.

7

Now put the can to dry. The wood glue becomes transparent after drying!

8

Put a tea light in the can.
