  1. Prepare the juice can by making sure the can is
    washed and dried.
  2. To make the end caps for the can, trace the circular
    end on the adhesive paper. Draw another circle 1"
    larger than the outline circle. Cut out the circles.
  3. With the scissors make cuts spaced 1" apart around
    the circle, from the outer edge in. Make two, one for
    each end of the can.
  4. Peel off the backing of the adhesive paper. Cover
    one end of the juice can.
  5. Place 1 or 2 jingle bells inside.
  6. Now ask an adult to poke a hole in the center of the
    metal or plastic end of the can.
  7. Bend a pipe cleaner in half and insert the two ends
    into the hole. On the inside of the can, twist the two ends
    to prevent them from slipping back through the can. The
    wire loop on the outside of the can will be your handle.
  8. Attach the other paper circle over the open end of the can,
    sealing the jingle bells inside.
  9. Cut a strip of adhesive paper which is the width of the can
    and is long enough to wrap around the can with 1" of overlap.
    Remove the paper backing and wrap around the can, covering
    the entire outside of the juice can.
  10. Now let's decorate it.
    You can use colored tape to make stripes or decorative
    shapes and symbols. Personalize you gragger with some
    of your favorite stickers. Draw decorative lines with white
    glue and sprinkle them with glitter. Shake off the excess.
