These are your Christmas ornaments:
These are your Christmas ornaments on drugs:
Apparently if I ever ingest a psilocybin mushroom, I'll start seeing photobombing rainbow cows.
Which doesn't sound very appealing ... I'll just stick to Photoshop ...
Anyhoo, as far as the other type of 'shrooms go, I made these for our pheGNOMEinal Christmas tablescape:
Since they pretty much reek awesomeness without actually smelling like fungus, they're great for decorating. I could see these in a terrarium, hidden in house plants, or scattered around in random places.
Like your shower, for instance.
It would be a great way to get rid of house guests ;-)
You will need:
1 inch by 2 inch pieces of card stock
Hot glue gun and glue sticks
Felt or fabric in the color of your choice
White craft paint
A paintbrush
Scissors
To make the stem:
Roll up a 1 inch by 2 inch piece of card stock. Glue. I used hot glue because I really enjoy hot glue burns all over the tips of my fingers. JK. Be more careful than I was (don't try to do it while eating a sandwich) and you'll be fine.
For the top:
Cut out two circles of felt or fabric. Trim your bottom circle so it's slightly smaller than the top circle. Cut a small "x" in the center. Place your card stock stem through it and attach with a bit of hot glue. Then take your top circle and glue it to the base piece around the edge. It will pucker up a bit for a toadstool-y effect.
Finally, dot craft paint on the top of the mushroom. Let dry.
Voila!
I hereby promise to stop Photoshopping random photos with rainbow cows.
Maybe.
