Tiny Toadstool Hanging Dome Decorations

I hope you're not too sick of toadstools yet! 

This idea was a long time in the making, I had a basic idea and collected all the bits and pieces I needed, only to be then scuppered when I couldn't work out how to actually hang them, mainly due to my complete ignorance of jewellery making findings! 

I tried to codge something together using a metal spacer bead and a loop of silver wire (don't ask!), but it was such a fiddle fart I quickly realised that I wouldn't have the patience to make it work, so off to Google I trolleyed, trying lots of word combinations with "bail" as the common denominator, until I finally hit upon "bead cap pendant bail" 

.........  and after another search on Temu, secured several packs of 10 such bails for £1.26 (per pack), with fingers crossed that they would work, waiting, with baited breath, for them to arrive.

When they arrived I was really chuffed, securing them to the top of the tiny glass domes that cost £8.99 for a box of 20 (sorry, if I sound like a Temu stuck record).  using E600 to ensure a secure fix.

I cut circles from a piece of "fake" grass, using the smaller end of one of the corks as a template ........

..... before using E6000 to glue the pieces to the corks.....

...... followed by the tiny foam toadstools .......

...... before finally putting the domes over to cover the whole affair.

I would really love to make some more of these, as they are really cute and a little bit different for hanging on the Christmas tree ........

...... however, there were only ten of this sized dome in my order and finding more on Temu for is proving rather difficult, as the ones I originally I bought have since been discontinued, aghhhh,  I'll just have to keep on looking and buy any I find as soon as I see them, lesson learned!
