Needle Felting Tutorial

Woodland Mushroom Plaque

Mushrooms can be so enchanting and delightful, and they come in such a wide variety of shapes and colors. We love our mushrooms and this Woodland Mushroom Plaque was inspired by our Fall Mushroom Ornaments, but with a little extra vintage charm.

The Woodland Mushroom Plaque reminds us of the type of art we had in the 1970s, but some of it seems to harken back just a little further to my grandmother’s cross-stitch décor. Whatever the era, it definitely has a vintage vibe, and I hope you enjoy making yours exactly the way you like it!

  • how needle felt dimensional mushrooms in "relief" style
  • how add texture & interest with yarns and other luster fibers
  • how to make this a free-hanging plaque
  • how to mount to a fabric/frame for a perfect mount & display
