Mushrooms

This week I went on a walk in the countryside with Papa Musgrove, with the cat trotting along behind us and jumping at butterflies in an idyllic, Disney sort of way. On the walk we saw this mushroom, which I think is really quite impressive, as mushrooms go. I don't eat mushrooms because I don't like the taste or texture, but I do like the way they look, so I found some sweet 'shroom-inspired designs to share. 

This is the mushroom I saw on the walk. It is a biggun

These amazing mushroom lamps are by a Japanese company called Great Mushrooming. They're made of glass, LED lights and waste wood and were on display at Design Festa 2010 in Tokyo

As far as I can find out, the mushroom lamps are not available outside of Japan. But aren't they just fabulous?!

I absolutely love these handmade wool mushrooms by UK Etsy shop astashtoys. They look so cute as decorations for a little house tree
