How to Make a Pie Bunting {and an Epic Giveaway}

Thanksgiving is over and it’s time to plan for the crazy whirlwind we call December!
But I just had to share with you this simple Pie Bunting Tutorial.
The Pie {or cake} bunting is perfect for adding whimsy to your holiday table or for a inexpensive hostess gift!!
You’ll need some awesomeness on top of the glorious desserts you’ll be making with your new KitchenAid mixer… but now I’m getting ahead of myself! (hehehehe)

How to make a Pie Bunting
You’ll need:

• 12 x 12” glitter cardstock – for this bunting I bought one sheet of gold and one sheet of bronze for .99 cents each. You can make at least 7 buntings with this amount of paper.
• Scissors
• Hot glue gun
• String – about 18” for each pie bunting
• Two skewers

1. Cut 1- 1.5” strips of the cardstock. (You’ll have 8-12, 12” strips.)

2. Cut each 12” strip into 3.5-6” lengths. (You’ll have a bazillion pieces.)

3. Fold each piece in half and cut desired shape at the bottom to create a pennant. (I wanted my holiday bunting to be a little bit funky so I made each one different!)

4. Open the folded piece and cover one side with hot glue.

5. Fold over your length of string about 4” from the end, placing each pennant about 1/8-1/4” apart. (Stick with odd numbers for your bunting – mine has 7 pennants.)

6. Tie each end to a skewer and place in your holiday pie {cake} of choice!

These pie buntings will add shine to any holiday table… or make a great hostess gift… or teacher gift… or stocking stuffer!

You’re welcome!
