When we built our home 18 years ago there were many left over drops of cement. This one I grabbed because it looked so much like a mushroom. Now that it has aged it blends into the landscape well.
Wow, that's a heck of a lot better than the cement scraps that were left in my yard. I love it! Ours were so odd looking that I was only able to use them to fill the bottom of my raised bed. I love finding creative uses for materials that we already have.
Hi Muddy Boot Dreams, Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!!
Hi Aunt Debbie, The moss is nice.(-: It did that all by itself(-:
Hi Skeeter, Thanks! I always thought it was a fun piece of construction waste(-:
Hi CatHerder, Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment!!!!
Hi Meadowview Thymes, That moss grew all by itself on the mushroom! Cool huh!!
Hi Cinj, Yeah most of the stuff left over was junk that was not useable really. But a few things were like the mushroom(-:
Hi My Little Family, Thanks! I haven't seen anything like it before thats for sure...lol (-:
Hi Brenda, I wouldn't know how to make one. It looks like the cement was poured into a hole in the ground then the top part was what oozed out on top. But it wasn't in the ground when I saw it. But that might work to make one.
Hi Gail, I have no idea. I don't think it would be that hard to do if you had the cement and the ground to pour it in/on. That thing is heavy though. You would have to be pretty strong to lift it up after it was done. I guess you could do a smaller size one though and it wouldn't be to heavy. I bet that one there weighs 50 pounds.(-: I have seen the little mushrooms that people poke into planters those would be cute too. Lots of ideas. Let me know if you make some(-:
I love that mushroom. It is a great find for your garden. Hope you don't mind me stopping by. I just found you & btw, your blog is stunning. Love all the photos & info. debbie
What a great looking mushroom. I love it. It looks much better than the one I saw in the bbs. Wonder if you put cement in a hole in the ground then set a pipe of some kind in the middle as the stem. Hmmmm!!!!
