I cropped a single prop off a real plane (Still shot). Make a new layer, then I sized it to fit the jug. Then copied the prop 3 more times, moving it to the correct position (it wasn't perfect that's for sure). 

After the Props are in place, I Merge the layers.  Then select the Oval Marquee tool, and while holding Shift, drag a circle (not an oval) over the props. Move it to cover the props.  Then Use the Radial Blur Filter. Make sure the Blur is enough to get them to look like they're spinning.  That should do it  :aok
