Start melting your gel wax using a
presto pot. While your wax is melting, thread your wicks through the
wick holes in the bottom of your 9" pie shell. And set out all of
your embeds within easy reach.
Once your wax has melted, add
your fragrance (1/2 ounce per pound of wax). Mix fragrance in gel
for approximately 1-2 minutes to be sure that it has dispersed into
the gel evenly. Now, pour gel into your pie shell.

Time to move fast now, but be
careful! Hot gel gets REALLY hot on the skin.
Insert your large strawberries
all around the edge of your pie shell.

You can
use different fruits if you so choose and, of course, you may put as
many or as little fruit pieces in the pie that you prefer This
project was just an example of how I make my fruit pies and I hope
that it will inspire you to invent some wonderful creations of your
own!
