My muse knows no seasons

One direction I'm working on is creating beads that compliment items already in my line, so thinking along those lines I wanted to create a mushroom to go with my little gnome.  I had a few ideas sketched out and decided to try the mushrooms in a several different ways.  Above are tiny charms.

This one is hand-sculpted and painted, much like my acorns and would actually look pretty cute on a charm bracelet with them!

A larger bead with the mushroom motif.

The other pendants I created to match my egg beads.  So in the same color schemes of the eggs, I revisited my nest design. 
Looks like Spring around here! 
(Of course in Texas it will be summer until October.)

Oh my! I loooove the mushrooms. All three of them, but especially the pendant and the big painted bead. But I have to stop writing now, coz I'm off to a particular shop to see if there are any mushrooms for sale yet ...
I wish I wish, please let there be some

I am soooo sorry, but I have to say it. I also missed the big shroom. It was in my cart, but gone when I was gonna check out. Must have been a matter of seconds. WHO got it before me, and before Lori. WHO?

Sweeeeeet! The mushrooms are adorable and would go well with your little gnome. But the nest pendants are my favorite.
