Spun Cotton Fairy Mushroom Ornament
Materials: Wire, Cotton, Starch, Water, Paint, German Glass Glitter.
Every spun cotton fairy mushroom is made slowly and carefully by hand, so each one is unique and original, from gills to stalk. This is a whimsical interpretation of an amanita muscaria (fly agaric). Fairy mushroom ornaments are generally around three inches tall. They all come with a wire loop for hanging. Choose your favorite ornament hook, or purchase one here.
Each mushroom ornament is made simply from fluffy cotton batting wrapped around wire and sealed with a paste made of starch and water. They are painted with watercolor or coffee to give them an earthy appearance, and they are embellished traditionally, with German glass glitter and mica.
These mushroom ornaments are red, but they can be made to order in any color or quantity. Please inquire here to request different colors or quantities.
