Miniature Mushrooms

Miniature red mushrooms, polymer clay

I made a handful of miniature "toad stool" mushrooms. They do not take any special skills, just patience. All you need to make these is:

• Red and white polymer clay
• scalpel 
• brown chalk (optional)

After rolling out a bunch of red balls, I used my scalpel to attach stems and add in all the details (don't forget to make some little cuts in the bottom of the stem).

Currently it is -30 degrees outside and I am placing little mushrooms on trees with my bare hands like a crazy person. Urg, this picture dose not look that great either. But why even make minis unless you can take cool pictures with them?

I think I will make a little wooden crate and fill it with mushrooms. Then glue a magnet on and send it to Elo in Vancouver. Elo likes picking wild mushrooms.
