Creative ways to make mushrooms for your party

We decided to go with a mushroom theme for our Alice in Wonderland party, but these could be used with many types of party themes.

The large mushrooms are dollar store bowls with white contact paper spots and paper towels at the base.

Here's a colander from the dollar store with a dollar store vase underneath.

The small mushrooms were from the dollar store.  I painted them with metallic red paint.

Here they are in the yard.

I also found these cute mushrooms at the dollar store. 

 I painted the background with metallic red also.

Plus we made mushroom cupcakes.  The stand was also made with dollar store plates and dollar store planters.  See below.

I bought a small and a large "wood" planter, and a small and a large black plate at the dollar store.  I glue gunned them together for the cupcake stand.  It cost me $4.
