I'm in a Mushroom Mood..

















Went looking on ETSY http://www.etsy.com/ and found alot of very nice mushroom items for sale..







Wonderful and whimsical etsy artist to buy from...




Well ,then I went looking on FLICKR http://www.flickr.com/and found amazing mushroom pictures.. that were quite yummy..

Sweet mushroom candy and funny little mushroom dolls by Annie Oak Leaves..




Just about every holiday has used mushrooms on their holiday postcards and greeting..but could not find any in Thanksgiving..weird ,huh?! but I'm sure there are Thanksgiving postcards somewhere with them ... oh ,none for the 4th of July..but maybe...




Retro salt n pepper shakers..




Even found this neat mushroom can on ebay..but too pricey for me!




Unusual postcard ,I have 3 but cannot find the others..will post another time..




Mushrooms are a favorite to eat at our house... and a artist visual treat too.. in so many forms and just about all all the seasons..went on 'ebay, flickr and etsy' plus looked thru my own old paper and postcards ..have alot more postcards to share but this was enough for now...so show me your mushrooms!...hmm.. might have to do a stir fry today pork n mushrooms with broccoli
