I MADE THE MUSHROOM LAMP 🍄✨

[@Lilianovich]

You making a mushroom lamp and Rachel Maksy just recently turning herself into a lamp are definitive signs from the universe that I now have to make a lamp.

[@lukes.cam07]

realest thing ever

[@ArtisticKaimage]

Same hereeee these projects look so fun ❤️

[@Oliver_Twist8557]

For real, they both have inspired me to try and make like a vintage ruggy lamp

[@-licorice-1229]

Honestly, I shoullldd go back to crafting more- especially mushroom inspired things. These videos both have been so motivating to watchhh

[@ArtisticKaimage]

@@-licorice-1229 I’ve never fully crafted per se but make forts and structures using stuff around the house or tried to make a car like in the little rascals with my younger brother 🤭😂❤️

[@Rotten_Ralph]

Have you ever considered making a table out of a stump? Like a fallen log 🪵 but it’s a table and chair? For a forest gnome to have tea.

[@_Samurai_49]

ooOoh that would be cool she should do that

[@entitled_little_cat]

I would like this comment but it's at 111 and that's too mystical to ruin

[@infinitewonders299]

_Oh no._

[@TheLadySakai]

Id love to see her do that, Im pondering making my toilet inside a treestumpmaking the top like a lid so it would just look like a treestump when not in use :)

[@jellyfishdoodler]

For your consideration: Fantasy creature mounted head. Or perhaps creature bits in jars. Magical apothecary vibes ✨

[@child.of.helios]

i have random jars in my room and i now know what to do with them, thank you^^

[@idkJustKat]

@@GabrielleTollerson thanks! It has been way more fun than I thought!

[@annethropophagy]

I loved this! Have you considered making a bed canopy or curtains that look like spanish moss? Or a rug that looks like the pelt of a fantasy creature? Like a dragon or a griffin? Or a logshaped umbrella holder for your staffs and weapons?

[@Rotten_Ralph]

I was going to suggest she make something like the medieval bed canopy that Morgan Donner made recently… I was trying to think something smaller but the wires to hold it up aren’t expensive except they need to be installed in the walls and ceiling.

[@terahmichelle416]

I just suggested something of the same before I saw this comment. A 4 post mushroom & wood theme to make a canopy bed to match her mirror and lamp. 😅

[@pumpkinsproutarts]

I'd love to see some sort of dragony reptile project. Just something with a bunch of scales and cool colour shift paint

@_Samurai_ but then you don’t because something else popped up in your KZbin recommended

[@kielia727]

Here is a suggestion that may or may not be of use for you for next time. Those candelabra light strands have a finite lifespan. If you make your mushroom stems hollow, you can insert the light cords and build a little "door" so that when the cord dies you can replace it. Your fairy lights are also going to need to be replaced at some point. Making them easily removable so they can be replaced when needed ups the value of your piece. Putting all that work into something only to have pieces of it die one by one sucks. I learned that the hard way. Lol!! Love your finished lamp .

[@c0ldlight1]

THIS CAME OUT SO MAGICALLY! 💓💓💓💓💫💫💫🍄🍄🍄 idea- fake wooden beams over your ceiling to make it fantasy room

[@minmi7524]

The Executive Producer deserves something a little whimsical methinks; what if she received a house in the shape of a tree stump, or even a humble bushel of a forest to relax in after a very long day of inspecting the stage and making sure everything is up to code for the studio audience

[@xXEclipse_studiosXx]

YESS

[@lydiaf5045]

I have seen moss/ puddle looking rugs floating around on Pinterest where it is layered tiers making it 3D. The base would be blue and greens would be layered around it making it look like a lil puddle.

[@Sovereign_Toadstool]

Oh my gosh, yes! I want one of those so badly

[@unelm0ija]

I have made some. Really easy DIY to do by making a ton of pompoms and sewing them to a ?net? That keeps rugs from slipping

[@RaquelliBee]

I noticed the metal frame the rests on the colored light bulbs were attached with hot glue. You might want to change that bc metal conducts heat and the got glue might loosen over time with use. This lamp is really cool 😎

[@SLorraineE]

Good point! Having the glue heat up and drip over all her hard work would be so sad, in addition to the lamp shade potentially getting burnt from landing directly on the bulb

Lol YES these vibes are perfect for that

[@spaghettibete4286]

Consider: Making soap/sanitizer/lotion dispensers that look like LOGS Anyway I haven't finished the video but it looks amazing so far

[@2degucitas]

And a mushroom or 2 growing on the log would be cute.

[@spaghettibete4286]

@@2degucitas Oh yess!! That'd be super cute~

[@crappyalien]

the video was awesme !! for a future project maybe some kind of patchwork curtain with fabric scraps or to look like a leaf canopy of sorts? the leaves would almost make the light green in a way and i feel like it would look super cool! like a beaded curtain but with leaves lol

[@DragonSong5]

I second the hanging vine curtain!

[@Beast-pc9nf]

Mimic (dnd) storage would be so fitting and awesome!! Whether a chest or drawers, with maybe the tongue as a handle, u could add LED to the eyes… oh it’d be so cool

[@jamessberna1330]

I actually doing this exact thing with an old chest we are using for toys for my kids currently. When I get my d&d room (room in the attic) cleaned up and done the chest is going up there. Lol

[@thesaviourfromheavensunwuk9639]

Ok that mushroom lamp is so damn awesome

[@ejdaffodill]

Ok, so I have a couple ideas that can match with the mirror and lamp. Number one, bookends. They would look so cool like on a bookshelf or just like on your desk. Number two, tiny little stumps with mushrooms that can just be little decorations. You can even add a candle to them. Number three, the final one, a shelf. It can have wood texture and all sorts of little forestry bits thrown on it, but it could also be functional and it would super cool. Just sitting there holding all of your art supplies and looking like a forest barfed on it. Love you Kira! ❤ I really like how the lamp came out, I want one but I don’t have any space in my room nor the time to make myself one. 🍄

[@lwilso9152]

The mushroom fairy makeup vibes are immaculate ❤🍄🧚🏻‍♀️✨

[@cheriegettel]

Love the video as per usual! The "I want logs everywhere" joke really got to me - the cuts to enrtyways and bathrooms w/ logs cracks me up. In terms of another project idea, I think something hanging would be cool. An abandoned and overgrown birdcage or those big branches that people hang plants and dried flowers from? Whatever you make, I look forward to it!

[@MH-jn5cm]

A big funky jewelry box that has a pirate/mermaid theme could be really cool! Great video 😍💖😍💖

[@Abbe1133]

The amount of anticipation I’ve had since you teased this is INSANE. when I get my own house I am making at least one of these. And also a mushroom mirror. You are literally everything I aspire to be lol

[@cineblazer]

The lamp looks amazing but I just want to say I *really* appreciate your general energy. You radiate good vibes! Also, the way you use a sharp metal object as a microphone reminds me strongly of NerdForge :)

[@kelstitch]

One day this nocturnal forestry of a bedroom Kira’s making piece by piece with decor like this mushroom lamp will be a full on escapist asmr room with rain, and we’re all here vibing with her journey as she goes along ❤

[@darkforestpyxi]

My dream room 😍

[@brasstail]

This turned out absolutely gorgeous and I am so pleased to see it! Maybe shelf mushrooms for your walls? Or for a break from mushrooms I'd love to see something with ferns, maybe curly fern coat cooks or something? I've also seen people do moss rugs with yarn which could be cool!

[@HazarielAtelier]

A chef's kiss project as usual. Watching your space slowly turn into a fantasy realm is exactly what we need♥️

[@codeearth9820]

I love the little hidy-hole for the led's batteries. And the lamp itself in honestly amazing, I want the same one all over my house

[@catherinebeauregard3531]

It's so extreme and over the top. I absolutely adore it. Thank you so much for sharing.

[@berryjunmill9029]

you should make one of those mirror indoor waterfalls that looks like a portal

[@Macabrellian]

I feel like literally anything stained glass-based would really tie into the aesthetics you've been working on.

[@Squishy_Seal]

Also the Wii Sports Resorts theme has now officially become the Thrift store theme, and I love it !

[@MondkeksLP]

„So I was browsing Pinterest…“ are great last words let’s be honest. And I am hereby starting a petition to turn your room into a museum once the inevitable turning into an actual forrest spirit and vanishing without a trace to live within a small fae community happens. Your projects are so magical, it must be to collect enough whimsy to call upon a spirit a wishes.

[@subtlefire7256]

I really enjoy "making xy out of scraps/trash" kind of crafting videos, so I'm excited to see more of them. How about some fantasy creature decor? Like a dragon that winds aroung the upper edge of a bookshelf or something. The lamp looks amazing btw. I love lamps and this and Rachel's video make me so happy haha. 💡🍄

Tagging myself as the dragon lamp, although I've always related to the burlesque lamp that my ex's dad owns. A really pretty deep red balloon shade with black fringe, but the body of the lamp was sculpted to look like legs wearing fishnet stockings and heels. 10/10 impeccable vibes

[@ReAnna3rd]

For your consideration: seashell journal with a mermaidcore/ kind of victorian aesthetic that looks like its been at the bottom of the ocean for hundreds of years. I made one last year and bookbinding with found objects is so fun!

[@jimahalangel]

You could decorate a vase or flower pot so that it looks like a log that's sprouting some flowers/other plants. Alternatively i would love to see more turtles as planters. My brother 3D printed me a desert tortoise and she has succulents on her shell :)

[@BluestormsSong]

Picture frames, coasters, small LED mushroom/butterfly lamps, "rock and wood" scultpures, small containers, bookends; there's a million little things you could build with the scraps you've collected and a buyer/collector for every one of them.

[@Antibus]

ever consider a light up fake window for a wall in your room?

[@sunriseeyes0]

Oooh! I vote for this idea!!! Would be perfect for a room that doesn’t have a window 🖼️

Oh wow! Like a mysterious dusky forest view, or the sun shining through the spring leaves of a tree... 😍 I have nowhere near the electrical knowhow required to do this project safely, but I WANT!! 🥰

[@annadownya]

So many options when you go the furniture route. Chairs. Bookshelf. Wardrobes. Can do curtains. Fantasy up your bed with a canopy.

[@raygnor4429]

For some reason, the first thing that popped into my mind was like a chest recovered from the sea covered in barnacles and stuff, might help with storage too

[@dangerwolfdavis]

Canopy over your bed, fairy lights of course, made from lace and hanging flowers. Some branches?like a tree is your bed canopy. This is something I am currently working on for my room. As well as a big fairy mirror for myself and my mom. Id not thought of a lamp before but now.. yes. I absolutely need it.

[@tm8463]

This lamp is so beautiful I love it 😭. Also, I can just imagine every time you work outside your neighbors are like 'there goes that girl Kira again. She always crafting something odd' 😂

I am an old grandma. I absolutely love what and especially how you did that. If you ever need adopting, I will do so in a second.

[@Squishy_Seal]

Weird suggestions but since you asked, maybe a little pond made out of resin with moss around it and water lilies on it ?

[@Acecidic]

Or like this but in a mini side table so its like in the table with like clay fishies

[@Squishy_Seal]

​@@Acecidic oh my God yes !!

[@LaineyBug2020]

You could do little moss scapes in various places in your room, like have it 'growing' off a corner of a shelf or desk or in a ceiling corner. They could have various insect/fairy/smol animal wildlife attached to each place. You could make empty plastic cups or shower product bottles into hanging flower pots that look like rocks, you could do scrap mosaics on the wall to look like a tree trunk in different places and use different scraps as the foliage or vines to string fairy lights around the room...you could make larger plastic containers like from laundry soap into little storage bins my stacking them together in a row and making them look like a rock or boulder or tree stumps.

[@canjica_]

God I love some good fantasy cottagecore

[@greata80]

Gorgeous and whimsical as always! You should combine moths and lamps next. They do go together after all 🦋🦋

[@ianflynn3262]

I think you now need a dresser or wardrobe to go with the mirror and the lamp!

something I've always loved is those little diorama type things but specifically ones where you're looking through glass into a scene.

Always wanted something like that in my house lol

Would be cool if you did a Excalibur/ breath of wild sword in ground inspired lamp or something it’s rusting and ✨✨ WHIMSICAL ✨✨ idk how it will be a lamp though

[@anna_in_aotearoa3166]

If you sized it down, it could make a pretty cool necklace storeroom or something...?

[@DragonSong5]

A portable dragon light: Basically a dragon figurine, but you open its mouth to reveal the lightbulb. Legs allow it to stand, and a flexible neck directs light where you need it. Switch + batteries located on the stomach.

This was a really cool home item project to watch! Some kinda mantle-esque wall decor with a sword and/or shield or something seems like it'd fit the same vibe.

[@furretbell]

I would love to see like hanging moss or tree branches from the ceiling and walls. You can add more of the hot glue mushrooms to it too (I'm obsessed with those). Could also look at like weeping willows, wisteria, weeping cherry blossom trees with like lunar moths that you could somehow glow. I just have like a picture of a hedgewitch hobble for your room now.

[@Bluebelle51]

My favorite projects have always started with, "I have no idea what I'm doing" and progressed from there I've found my tribe!

[@cathycat4989]

An ottoman or table that looks like a mossy, broken down pillar. It can look like the top has been broken off a pillar or arch, covered in moss and maybe even flowers. Only problem would be making a jagged, uneven surface still usable. Another idea would be cover for a humidifier that looks like a dragon, or a decanter in the shape of a snail (you can use an glass bottle and build a base so the bottom goes in at an angle but can be removed so that it can be washed). I've also heard of making beds look swampy with blankets meant to look like moss. Oh, i like my goth aesthetic but love helping others with their's. It lets me play with other aesthetics without having to add color or stuff i don't want in my own space.

[@AwkwardBirb]

So gorgeous and soothing ❤ I love how the gills mimic the fringe of a lampshade, so cool!!

[@ceciliamatos3288]

Love your creativity and videos! You asked for suggestions and I see that you have gone full circle and are now crafting woodland animals which is great. Once you feel like moving on again, may I suggest that you take a walk OUT of the woods and onto the shore. Either lake or a beach there is an abundance of creatures that may entice you. After that there is the sky and space! 😳 This could easily be a lifetime plan! What are you really find? Interesting is producing figures. From old time, legends and folklore, and most of them involve woodlands. Keep doing what you’re doing because you’re doing it so well! ♥️

[@anonymousart8202]

Maybe taking some old plant pots and customizing them or picking some up second hand or super cheap. You could take the foam scraps and make them look like stumps or build up around the bases to make them look like they are stuck in stone. The pots can be small too so they won't take up a lot of space. You could also add LED hot glue mushrooms or just little lights around them maybe hide the battery pack in a built up base or fake stump? You would just have to be careful of drainage but it could be a fun way to decorate pots for house plants!

[@GoddesSilverRose]

I think a huge dream catcher would be so you! You can do anything with them and they are so pretty!

[@fenfeirthehighwayman8049]

Back when I lived in CaliforniaThere was a little store, and they used papier-mâché and a bunch of landfill garbage to build a reading nook that looks like a tree on the outside. It was one big papier-mâché tree on the inside however, there was an itty-bitty little couch and a lamp in the root system of the tree, I think I’ll be ahead and cool idea for your indoor tree. Either way I can’t wait to see what you do next.

[@TheTormentedshadow]

This is epic, as is all of your creative adventures, but this and the mirror project has really inspired me to make some of my own fantasy nonsense. So this is me completely endorsing and encouraging you to make more. I also love the idea of using trash or scraps to do it I think it adds another problem solving dimension to things. Other creators such as bill making stuff and studson studio, among others, regularly use everyday trash for their builds and I think its so satisfying to watch. I also think in this project your use of your foam scraps for bark texture an terrain was ingenious! Keep it up!

Suggestions of things that if you do not make them, I will: A book shelf that looks like it would made in the base of a tree. a standing desk that has a bunch of vines attached and if you make it stand up, it lokos like it grows, or an alarm clock as the body for a funky little guy of your choice.
