Thanksgiving Pumpkin Pie



11/17/08 - Pumpkin Pie - Who wants more pumpkin pie? This delicious pin is a little on the weighty side, but it sure won’t put the undesired pounds on your figure. Because of the multi-layers it takes to make this design, the pin is a little heavy. Be sure to fasten it on your outfit by pinning it through your clothing and also your bra strap.
