How to make Pie Ornaments
I think these diy pie ornaments are some of my favorite things I have made in a very long time. Not only are they really cute, but they are pretty easy to make, and the items to make them are inexpensive.
I had a lot of positive feedback at our recent holiday market, which made me happy.
I cut each styrofoam circle into six pie pieces. I then rolled out the clay and cut it to fit each of the pie pieces. You will need clay for the bottom crust and the outside crust. One thing that I did not do this time, but will next time is to prop the outside crust with foil to keep it upright. A few of the outside crusts came apart with out it. Before baking the clay you MUST remove the styrofoam before putting it in the oven. (see the first picture) Bake at 275 degrees for 15 minutes.
When the paint was dry, I placed a little bit of spackle in a plastic bag, and added whip cream to each piece of pie.
I only had enough clay to make cherries for one piece of pie. They next time I make cherry pie, I will add some clay pieces on top of the cherries to make it look a little more realistic.
I had enough clay to make three pecan pieces I added the pecans on top of the spackle and once it was dry, I painted it a caramel brown.

It's Market Week!
When I posted last week's Dare to Share party, I said that our market was going to be on Thursday. Normally our markets are the second Thursday of the month, but in November it's a holiday market and on Saturday. Yea! The friend I do markets with owns the bakery and is the one who schedules them, which is why I did realize there was a date change. We are happy to have a few more days to get ready this week, and it will be in the daylight during the market since it is dark by 5:30 where we live.
While I am still in the process of making the ornaments, they are starting to take shape. I will be posting how to make them after the market this weekend. I will also be able to start decorating for Christmas and working on my DIYs.
