Paper Plate Cherry Pie
Supplies:

Paper Plate
Red tissue paper
Tan card stock
Cotton balls
Glue
Scissors 
To Make:

  1. First, cut red tissue paper into small squares. Put a good layer of glue all over the plate and cover the glue completely with the red tissue paper.
  2. Cut long strips of paper from tan cardstock. Glue strips onto the paper plate evenly spaced.
  3. Cut strip ends that are hanging over plate to make the strips even with the plate.
  4. When glue is dry, weave more strips going the other way over your pie to give your pie a pretty pattern on the crust. Again, trim strip ends that are hanging over plate.
  5. Glue 3 cotton balls in the middle of your pie to give the look of whipped cream! Looks so delicious!
