I’ve recently come to the conclusion that I’ve got a little something for mushrooms. I like them in all sizes:
Small
Medium
Large
And extra-large
It looks like I’m not the only one that likes them too!
(Make sure to click on this picture to make it bigger, it’s definitely worth it!)
I’ve also been thinking for a while of creating a brand name for myself, to put on tags on the things I sew. And, I’d like for it to have something to do with mushrooms. The best thing DH and I have come up so far is “Crafty Mushroom” but I don’t think it’s creative enough. That’s where you all come in, it’s time for a contest!
I’d like you to submit a crafty name that has the word mushroom in it, or even “champignon” the french word for mushroom. You’ll have until the 20th of July to give me a name in the comments. I’ll pick the one I like best and the winner will receive a box bag that I’ll make especially for them. Have fun! I can’t wait to see what you’ll come up with!

Like another commenter, I think you should incorporate your blog name somehow. I immediately thought of Pink Mushroom Crafts, for what it’s worth …
Looks like you’re building your own city of mushrooms – how about Mushroom City Crafts/Crafting?
Well, if you didn’t use mushroom in the title then you could have “Valerie’s Galleries”.
I’m terrible at names, but good luck.

Wow lots of idea’s I think they are all taken. But I think I like “The Creative Mushroom”. I love your large mushroom very cute!!
This may sound odd, but while I was walking the other day, I thought of one: “My Favorite Fungus”.
