When the tins are empty, use the special sandpaper to smooth the sharp edge, and decorate the rim with your choice of washi tape to protect it even better.

Choose the stones for your dominos and line them up to facilitate numbering them.
Divide the stones in two with a freehand line and paint pairs of numbers from 0 to 6: it’s a good idea to make a diagram on a piece of paper first, so you won’t make any mistakes.
Use a felt-tip pen to make the dots on all 28 tiles and let them dry.

To protect your dominos, apply a coat of shellac or water-based clear varnish with a flat brush, and let them dry for the necessary time before playing.
