Read more for all the details on how to put together a Fall Thanksgiving Pie Paper Garland.
Thanksgiving has got to be my favourite holiday! How nice is it to gather with loved ones for some quality time, dressed in a cute fall outfit and eat a bunch of comfort food?! That is why I love Thanksgiving! No obligation for presents or forced activities, but just cozy quality time with loved ones surrounded by delicious food.
If you’re a crafty person wanting to put a little handmade DIY touch to your Fall and Thanksgiving decor, this pie paper garland is a must! I absolutely loved how this turned out!! I did 3 different pies, which I think are the main pies for Thanksgiving – Apple, Pecan and Pumpkin pie, but you can try to create any pies you’d like!

HERE IS HOW TO MAKE A FALL THANKSGIVING PIE PAPER GARLAND:
WHERE CAN YOU FIND THE MATERIALS TO MAKE THIS FALL THANKSGIVING PIE PAPER GARLAND?
All the materials I purchased for this DIY I found at Michaels or Amazon! You’ll need any string or ribbon that you’d like. I use thin twine. You’ll need some construction paper of the pie colors of your choosing. I purchased a pack from Michaels that had different shades of brown, then had some white and orange at home but all can be purchased at Michael’s too! I bought my mini wood clips from Amazon years ago and have been reusing them ever since!
WHAT ARE THE MATERIALS/EQUIPMENT NEEDED FOR THIS FALL THANKSGIVING PIE PAPER GARLAND?
Here are the things you’ll need to create this:
- Different shades of Brown cardstock paper
- Orange cardstock paper
- White cardstock paper
- Mini wood pins
- Twine
- Scissors
- Hot Glue Gun
Here are the exact things I used and recommend for this DIY paper garland!
CAN I SUBSTITUTE ANY MATERIALS OUT?
You sure can! These are the exact materials I used to make my paper garland but of course, I encourage everyone to take inspiration from what I create and create anything that suits their style! I really enjoyed making 3 different pies but do admit it took a lot more work than I had planned so if you want to just stick with one like pumpkin pie, that is totally okay and will end up being super cute still!
DOES THE DIY LAST TO USE FOR THE FOLLOWING YEARS?
Oh absolutely! As long as you carefully store these pie pieces nicely, you will be able to use this pie garland for years to come! Please note that they are paper so of course, they bend easily and may get wet so just be careful of that. The lovely thing is that you can recreate these very easily if you need to! It only takes paper, scissors and glue to recreate these pies if you damage any!
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO PUT TOGETHER?
In total, this took me about 3 hours! I cut every piece by hand and kept cutting until I made pieces that worked for me that duplicated it to make multiple pies that were the same shape. Since the pieces were small and delicate, I took my time cutting and glueing. I always recommend crafting while listening to music or watching a show while doing DIY’s it’s peaceful and time goes by so quick! It took me 3 hours but DIY projects are of course different for everyone so it can take more or less time for you! Have some fun with it and relax! Crafting will always be my go to activity when lessening screentime.
INSPIRATIONS FOR THIS DIY?
I love all things DIY crafts! I have been really into paper crafts and specifically paper garlands because it always makes your home extra cozy! It’s so nice seeing a cute DIY you made with your own hands hanging proudly in your house! I also love being able to swap out your decor for very little money. We get so obsessed with overconsumption and getting the latest viral product that we end up spending so much money! Spending money decorating your home does not have to break the bank. I reuse and make whatever I can for every holiday!
STEPS TO PUT TOGETHER FALL THANKSGIVING PIE PAPER GARLAND:
Step 1: Cut and measure out all your pie pieces.
I literally winged this one and tested a bunch of triangle pieces until I figured out what worked for me! Figure out where in your home you want to hang your pie garland and test out what size works best!
Step 2: Cut out all your pie parts.
Depending on what pies you make, cut out your pie parts! For a pumpkin pie, I added a small dollop of whipped cream, for apple pie, I did criss-cross lines on top, and for pecan pie, I cut little pecans and folded them to create some dimension. For each pie crust, I did different designs! For the pumpkin pie, I did zip-zag folds, for apple pie, I just did a wavy bottom, and for the pecan pie, I did a long, cloud-like shape! You can do exactly what I did, or you can use your imagination to create beautiful designs!
Step 3: Glue all your pie parts together.
Once you’ve decided on what pies you are making and have cut everything out, glue everything together! You can use any glue or tape, but I just used a hot glue gun!
Step 4: Hang your pie garland with wood clips.
Now that your pies are all put together, you can hang them up! I measured a piece of twine to my mantel in my living room, then use wood clips to hang the pie pieces and evenly spaced them out! Enjoy! 😊
