This one, by Jessica at the Adventures of Rory and Jess and Sadie was too sweet not to share. [click here for full tutorial and cute photos]

My nana used to make pies like this to sell at fundraisers, only she would fill them with potpourri, so the blueberry pies would smell like blueberries, etc.

really cute! I had never seen her blog before, she has some neat ideas. Seems her bow/clip tutorial could also be a “dollar store” project
