Hand-painted Wooden Cutout Mushroom! oil crayons but which now I thinkI'm not sure where this mushroom originally lived whether it was made as signage for a farm stand or to prop in the garden or what but whatever the case, it makes me want to go out foraging! It definitely has some age, with a little paint loss and some surface cracking to the wood, but I think is all the better for it, and would be great hung in kitchen, mud room or wherever. 10 5 8" t x 7 1 4" w x 3 8" thick. Painted on both sides.
