that is very cute and clever. TFS. I want to find the pie tin ones so I'm going to look around at the blog.

Thought I wrote something here! I thought it was very cute. Could use aluminum foil pie pans or just aluminum pie pans & tin snips to cut them I guess. I made dents in rabbit patterns in an aluminum pie pan years ago as a wall hanging & it worked out well. Made the design with hammer & dull nail so it didn't go through. Jan
