Now, fill the can. Turn it upside down and add desired contents. If adding food items, put them in a plastic baggie. This way, the glue used to close the container will not touch the food.

Press the bottom back on, wiping away any excess glue.
Leave can upside down and weigh down a heavy object on top until the glue has dried for a few hours or overnight.
When dry, embellish as desired!!
