Piepan Xmas Tree
This is a long tradition in my family..and have been making them for 40 years..
Supply List: Piepan or pot pie size alluminum pans. Kite String or garbage ties Hole Puncher [or anything sharp to make hole] String of screw-in lights [ like old fashioned outdoor ones] Pattern is started with the top..being 1..punch 2 holes in bottom of pan.. Next line is 2 pans 2 holes punched at top..one at matching side of other pan. Next line is same..and so on.. When you get to what you see as the bottom.. use 2 pans. X X X X X X X X X X X X [the format here will not allow the X's to line up right ..1 at top,next 2, next 3 etc.] We always used a single bulb string at the top..[yellow] and green for the rest..on the bottom one was blue. You can do this multi-colored also. Every year my Mother would give away her 'tree' to a Nursing Home..or Shelter..or a neighbor that wanted it. Pass it ON..and help in continuing my mothers tradition.. Thanks..PJ ![]()
