Once you’ve gathered your materials, spread out your parchment paper and drop various-sized dollops of hot glue all over the surface. Let these dry completely before you remove them. In the meantime, take your fairy lights and create stems by bending the wire into straight, vertical lines with a light at each tip. Then, cover the stems in hot glue to keep them upright; a simple, thin layer will suffice. After you’ve bent the wire into multiple stems, remove your dollops from the parchment paper and hot glue them onto the wire stems’ tips. And voilà! You have super cute mushroom lights.
You can also use materials like artificial moss from Walmart, flat glass marbles from Amazon, and wood plaque from Michaels to create a more detailed display. To replicate @infinitecreativity_’s piece, glue the artificial moss to your mirror’s frame, then hot glue the mushroom stems one at a time on top of the moss. This will replicate the look of tiny mushrooms growing on your mirror. Alternatively, to create a centerpiece, take your wooden board and glue the artificial moss (or any other desired foliage) over its surface. Then, hot glue the flat marbles along the moss, followed by the fairy light mushrooms. The wire glued to the foliage will be exposed, but you can either leave it as it is or cover it with additional flat marbles.
