- Now grab your clear contact paper. Cut out TWO pieces that are bigger than the pie cutout.
- Remove the backing from one piece of contact paper. Lay it on a flat surface.
- Now grab the long pieces from the pie cutouts. Place them on the contact paper, in a zig zag shape, face down.
- Now grab the circular shape. Place it also face down on the contact paper, on top of the long pieces you just placed down.
- Next have children decorate the inside of their pie with pieces of colored tissue paper.
- Once they are done “mixing” and making the perfect pie, grab the second piece of contact paper.
- Peel off the backing and place it on top of the other piece of contact paper, moving your hand around to “squish” everything together.
- To finish off the Mixed Media Stained Glass Pie craft, use your scissors to trim out the pie shape and remove the excess contact paper.
- Finally – take some glue dots or tape and adhere some cotton ball “whipped cream” to the pie shape.
