| Instructions: | |
| 1. | To make one, first snugly wrap 3 or 4 rings of double-sided foam mounting tape around a clean, dry, and labelless aluminum can (ours was 15 ounces). |
| 2. | Peel off the tape's protective covering to expose its second sticky side. |
| 3. | One at a time, attach colorful individually wrapped candy sticks (available at candy shops; we used 26) to the tape, setting them as close together as possible and pressing them firmly in place. |
| 4. | For a festive finish, tie a ribbon around the container. To
use the vase for fresh flowers or plants, set a plastic cup
inside the can as a liner before adding water.
