I love Pinterest! I must admit I saw three or four pins on Pinterest recently for schrooms and was inspired to create these. How I saw just the right pin when I had a pile of cardboard spools to use up is beyond me. I will also admit I got so into making these that I accidentally forgot a dentist appointment!
The ones I saw on-line did not have a little fairy...but I knew mine needed one! Found the coolest fairy and printed her out on photo paper. A little fussy cutting & hot glue...she was sitting pretty on my schroom! The stems are washi tape and some twine.
The bottom of the spool fit perfectly in this glass vintage candy dish. I snagged the dish at the Restore because it had a plated silver base that I thought looked cool. I wasn't sure what I was going to use it for at the time.
I had so much fun I made two more! I plan on donating them to a sale that the ReStore is having this weekend.
Happy Tuesday or should I say Shroom Day!
Oh my .... drooling over these... so beautiful!! Can't talk now... have to go back and look...

ReplyDeletelol! I take it they aren't in touch with the tooth fairy, then? (Sorry: somebody had to say it..)
ReplyDeleteOMG...the cups they are in are FABULOUS!!! So way cooler than a cloche, these look AMAZING and it was worth missing the nasty dentist! These are so much better when I can zoom in big time!!! LOOVE what you did. They're better than the Pinterest ones.
