Shhhhh..... I finished my boys Birthday presents today. Don't tell OK? hee hee. They love mushrooms! We had a lot of fun learning about them all spring. They really love this weird and silly video game called Mushroom Men and so I made them two bolete men to play with. Their arms bend and the hands can hold weapons. I left the weapon making up to them. Their bodies are made from walnut wood... so pretty. The caps are made of turned cherry, made by their Daddy. I think they are gonna love them! Bark armor and little backpacks all wool felted. These little mushroom men are my favorite things I have made yet. I know I say this all the time, but I feel so lucky. I get to be with my kids all the time and I make toys. It's so much fun. I finished these just in time for a party tomorrow for Lucas' birthday. An aunt and an uncle in town all the way from Oregon makes it even more special.












Wow - those look really cool. You are so talented. They are lucky to have you as mom.

I don't know anything about video games, but those are insanely cute! Will they have friends who will make an appearance in your shop soon?
