Product Description
The February MSOE (Mad Scientists of Etsy) challenge is Mycology. I used polymer clay and metal thumbtacks to make these two pushpins.
The mushroom has an unassuming greyish white cap...until you turn it over to see the underside of the shroom, which is similar to the button mushrooms used in salads. It is approximately 3/4 inch in diameter with a quarter inch rise in the center of the cap.
The toadstool is reminiscent of the "quilted" mushrooms of cartoons. There are impressions on the spots indicating "stitching", which are alternating green and yellow. The toadstool is one-half inch by one-half inch in size.
The tacks are baked into the clay to make the pushpins stand up to practical use. The actual pin sticks out a quarter inch or more. They were both given a light glossy glaze.
They will be shipped with the tack in corkboard (or styrofoam) for protection.
