These magic mushrooms make cute decorations. All you need is a paper-based egg carton, paint, and glue. This is a great all-ages craft.
Total Time: 1 hour plus dry time
Supplies:
- 1 egg carton
- scissors
- red and white paint
- paintbrushes
- hot glue gun with glue

Steps:
- Cut out the little cups from your egg carton.

- I like to cut out the little separator bits to use as smaller mushrooms.

- Press in some of the harder edges of the cups to shape into mushroom caps.

- Paint all the caps red. Let dry.

- Add white spots. Let dry.

- To make the mushroom stems, cut long strips out of the rest of the carton.

- Tightly roll up a strip. Cut it when you have the desired thickness for the stem.

- Add some hot glue to the end so it does not unravel.

- Add some hot glue to the top of one stem end so you can attach it the cap.

- Insert into a mushroom cap and hold it into place for 10 seconds.

- Repeat with the rest.
