I found a way to recycle my old school books into mushrooms by ripping up the pages, adding lots of water, blending untill thee are no lumps of paper, straining in a siv and then adding a bit of plain wheat flour. It makes a slightly crumbly dough (the gluten in the flour makes it less crumbly) and then forming caps and stalks (which I hit glue together) and also puffshrooms and shelf fungus, then I give everything a 1 or 2 coats of gesso after they’ve dried and hardened over the coarse of a week or two, then I paint them whatever colour I want, paint some dots, stars, lines, use gesso and paint some messy dots to create a textured pattern, I then add put cotton balls soaked with essential oils in the puffshroom’s holes for scent and add double sided tape to the back of the shelf fungus so they can stick to walls.
This may just be me, but I couldn't bare recycling books and things that hold memories, I always hoard all of my old sketchbooks, books, letters, and anything like that. I'm glad u can recycle yours tho!
@@BobRossCat I know what you mean and that’s why I only recycle the books from subjects I don’t like and have dropped for GCSEs. I do still feel kinda bad ripping out the pages but it’s all ok in the end as I cute little mushrooms. And if I just left them there they would probably just get thrown away and wasted anyway.
My godmother bought me one of those grow your own mushroom kits, it’s the shelf mushroom ones :D currently starting it off in the back kitchen and apparently once you cut them off and eat them, if you take the bag out of the box they can actually grow a second time which would be awesome
@BSOISO S MAN A godmother is someone your parents trust a lot , so much that they put in their will when they die you automatically go into your godmother & fathers care for the rest of your life , basically like your second ( or more ) pair of parents 😁
13:06 ok, who’s buying this with me and what woods are we going to set up deep inside in??? I’m talking full send forest picnic/party goblin/faerie/everyone bash
yall now i want to make one if those little chocolate cakes you can make in a mug, get some grass green and grey frosting, make some fondant mushrooms, and effing ENJOY IT. this is my life goal now >:] /hj
@@Insanityoftheflesh ahh I wish my friend, but i have no money lol. On top of that i practically live in a desert so there's no places like this around 😔
A little story to make you feel like a Magical Fairy☁️🌸🍄: As You Pick berries off the strawberry Bush you hear a strange sound.You Flutter over the hill side with your strawberry basket in hand.You see a fairy with Sapphire eyes,brown hair and a floaty flower dress.She Chirps Hello as she waves at you.She calls you over as she puts her hand out.You grab her hand as a flash of light enters your vision.Suddenly your in a Magical Mushroom Town.She enters a mushroom house taking you inside.She tells you to sit down as she passes you herbal tea 🍵.You ask for her name.She replies ‘Blossom,Daughter of the Nature goddess,Irene.’Her voice was soothing and cheerful.You ask her to be friends.She nods her head as she gives you a warm smile ☀️. (Sorry y’all I’m to lazy to continue)
Just a reminder to all of you who might be knew to mushroom foraging: Fly agarics are poisonous!! They might look like fairytale toadstools but never eat them and wash your hands thoroughly after touching them. :D
0:36 hm yeah well I hope they spent that much time because they actually like making art and they are not just doing it for likes on tiktok……….just sayin!!! Btw great compilation! Mushrooms are so freakin cute
don't touch a mushroom unless you can properly identify it and even then bring a mushrooming guide because there are many look-a-likes so be careful its best to not touch a mushroom unless you need to do your research on the poison ones so you can avoid them
here are some poisonous ones also the rules of mushrooming change depending on who you ask but here are some basic mushrooming rules that most use (unless you want an allergic reaction with no cure or if you want to be poisoned -I don't recommend you doing that-) -don't mix mushrooms unless you have eaten those species once or twice -keep one mushroom out of the food so you can take it to the doctor -don't eat a mushroom raw if you foraged and I'll add the rest in a sec
Ink Caps are indeed my favorite. I do wish I could go full goth, however I enjoy being a forest goblin far too much. I am bisexual, I had a crush on Sam, I do need to fix my sleep schedule because I work second shift not third no matter how I want to look at it and also I am feeling very attacked right now ma'am.
Sounds awesome! We have a huge property that we love to look for mushrooms and eat them. If you are planning to eat them be very careful, many mushrooms are deadly or deadly when raw or eating with specific things. Stay safe and have fun!
⭐️LISTEN Y’ALL⭐️ If you want to go out in a forest and take some mushrooms, be sure to do so without hurting them! Remember to use your fingers to take ‘em out of the ground, NEVER cut them! Reach for the underground base of the mushroom with thumb and index finger and try to figure out where the mushroom’s stem ends. Once you find it, close your fingers underneath it and slowly pull it up. This way, you won’t only get the whole mushroom, but you’ll also make sure that you’re not hurting it by leaving half of its body in the ground(if you do, its roots will die along with the dead body’s half and in that spot won’t grow new mushrooms for a very long time!) Let’s not hurt our mushroom friends🥺
your comment is misinformation, the correct way to harvest mushrooms so they grow back is to carefully cut it at the stem. if you rip it off like you said it will damage the mycelium.
Do it! I dress FantasyCore so I'm basically all of the mystical-like Aesthetics in one😂 its possible so DO IT you only have one life (unless you come back in another life, but then you won't remember anything XD)
Okay those beautiful mushrooms might seem cool but do not touch or eat them. They are extremely poisonous and it’s also called fungus too. It takes over a place where a plant died.
what a great thing to come across! I wore my mushroom demon shirt and like yes- im so happy- Edit: for those who want the shirt, I found it in Kentucky, but it might also be online, not sure-
@Elainarocks19 When I go to the mall with my Aunt I might be able to find it (when I'm with my mom, I can't go to hot topic, I've never even been there)
0:00 I just would really like to tell people to NOT do this, no matter how pretty they r. Mushrooms are a part of nature so u should leave them be. I saw a very similar mushroom somewhere, and I was going to take a picture with it, as around it looked very pretty with the mossy background. Later, I came back for the picture, in the same place and it was gone, nothing but a tiny stump left. Once again, don’t do this!
You guys are so talented and I really really like it and the crystals are really cool I really like your artistry and the mushrooms are everything we are me and my cousin are melting like go on crazy or buy anything for any price you guys are so cool I really like everything you make mushrooms are my life my shoes are my calming station 🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄🍄
*When my school have mushrooms Me and my friends be like: -waooooo, that so wonderful oh my gosh And we used a stick to touching them until our parents holding a broom and staring at us
