Mushrooms of all varieties from „Shrooms to Toadstools

A gourmet and epicurean delight served up "a la carte," as the main entrée, or as a "delicious" side dish for your pixie, elf or fairy.

These wood-based, weighted mushrooms are a wonderful prop for your magical creatures.  They stand about 4 inches high (although you can increase that height depending on your embellishments).   They're just downright fun and very easy to make!   The class will teach you how to make a "basic" mushroom and provide instructions that you can take with you to create additional mushrooms at home. The class will also provide hints and ideas for developing a more complex mushroom. All the materials you need to make the mushroom are provided in the kit. However, you will need the following supplies and tools to put your mushroom together:

Tacky, fast drying glue

Invisible thread

Heavy nylon or upholstery thread

Scissors

Stuffing tool

Straight pins

Needles (beading and regular sewing)

Basic Mushroom created from contents of kit.

Class size is limited to 25. Kit fee is $20.00. Kits will be distributed on a first come, first served basis. mailto:dianezammito@msn.com to sign up for the class and/or to reserve your kit.
