Supplies You’ll Need
- Popsicle sticks
- Glue
- Scissors
- Cardstock or construction paper (to glue the pie slice onto)
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1 – Make the Pie Slice Base
Line up 2 popsicle sticks side by side to form a triangle (like a slice of pie).
Step 2 – Paint the Pumpkin Pie
Cut the triangle shape orange to look like pumpkin pie filling. And yellow paper to look like crust. If you have brown paper, that’s great.
Step 3 – Add Whipped Cream
Glue a small white pom-pom or a fluffed-up cotton ball to the top of the pie slice for a whipped cream decoration. I have made with marker.
Step 4 – Mount on Paper
Glue your finished pie slice onto a piece of construction paper to create a Thanksgiving card or fall decoration.
