Amanitas is so irresistible... yeah! agreed.
When I was a kid I received a rubber mushroom among some gifts, it looked like this one. Seeing this one reminded me of that toy, it had the same colors and I remember vividly that every time I had it in front of me I wanted to chew it.
Since I see your mushroom publications I am understanding and admiring things I had never noticed before. And yes...it does look like fairyland.
We had Christmas tree glass ornaments shaped like the red Amanita. It was cute! But so fragile... every year there was less and less of them. I am not sure if we have any left right now.
Maybe you have at least one left and you can place it in the forest among the real ones... hahaha... a trick! 😝
You said it with a lot of nostalgia, hopefully some is preserved but it is hidden. 😇
Yeaaa... because I remember we had lots of them and they were cool :)
We do have a box like that with some very old glass ornaments. We hardly take it out cause we dont want to break more and we use the more normal stuff. I just dont remember seeing any mushroom left last time I looked.
Jummm... the collector is about to appear! at any moment she arrives: ajaaa... you have a collection of old ornaments! 🤣
