- Gather the supplies.
- Wipe the insides and outsides of the cans clean. Use a medium flat brush to paint one can in Calypso Blue and two in Snow White. Let dry.
- For the medium-sized striped can, use painter's tape to mask off the stripes.
- Use a flat brush to paint the stripes in True Red. Let dry. Use a flat brush to apply Galaxy Glitter in Red Nebula.
- For the small can, use a small round brush to paint stars in Antique Gold and Calypso Blue. Let dry. Use a small round brush to apply Galaxy Glitter in Gold Shooting Star and Milky Way Blue.
- For the taller can, transfer the provided pattern. Use a small round brush to paint the letters in Antique Gold and outline the letters in True Red.
- Add these firecrackers to a festive holiday display.
