Mushroom Cozy

The coffee cozies I make are from an idea for an owl looking out from a cup of tea or coffee. They began of course with reclaimed wool and vintage buttons, which are some of our main materials. I began decorating around the eyes and using vintage rhinestone buttons. Then I added flowers or wings. I also was making mushroom scarves. The mushroom cozies became this little piece of forest which contained fungi, moss, and some little fern fronds. I use a lot of cashmere for the mushrooms because of the smooth velvetiness if an actual mushroom. These cozies are sooo soft and fun to hold with a warm or cold drink.
