You know there are some mushrooms out there that you should not eat.
These fall under that category.
They are simply made of felted wool.
Looks complicated, but super easy to make and so much fun.
Felted Mushrooms
You need:
Wool for felting in a few different colors
washing up detergent
boiling water
thin metal wire
hot glue gun
1.Start with the stems.
2.Twist together wool like a sausage, it will shrink a lot.
3.Add a little soap and over the sink add a little water.
4.Start to gently tap on the wool, work it gently together.
5.Once its getting into shape pour boiling water over it and then cold water.This will make the wool shrink.
6. work it until you have a long stem. Once its dry, cut them up into smaller stems.
7.Insert a wire in each stem.
Tops:
1.Layer the wool into a mushroom top shape.
2.Add a little soap and over the sink add a little water.
3.Start to gently tap on the wool, work it gently together.
4.Once its getting into shape pour boiling water over it and then cold water.This will make the wool shrink.
5.Dry and hot glue to the stem.

This is for me the perfect craft project.
You use something you already have in the house, it takes about 15 minutes to make and it looks great.
Its so easy.
Simple take an old book, open it and fold in 5 and 5 pages like shown on the image.
Do the whole book.
You now have a very cool stand for photos, little notes or those horrid bills.

They will sense how you are feeling and try to let you know
that you’re not alone... in their own dog-like way!

Since spending time in Alaska this past summer and being able to observe many kinds of mushrooms I have a new appreciation for their beauty. These are so fun and the photo is so true to where mushrooms reside.
