Unique Aesthetic and Durability
As a mushroom enthusiast and avid mushroom grower, I have always been fascinated by the versatility of mushrooms and their potential for unconventional uses. One of the most intriguing uses of mushrooms that I have come across is the creation of a mushroom footstool. Yes, you read that right – a footstool made from mushrooms! In this article, I will dive deep into the world of mushroom footstools, exploring how they are made, their environmental benefits, and their potential as a unique and sustainable piece of furniture. To create a mushroom footstool, the process begins with cultivating mycelium, which is the vegetative part of the fungus. This mycelium is then mixed with a substrate such as sawdust or agricultural waste and placed into a mold in the shape of a footstool. Over the course of a few weeks, the mycelium grows and binds the substrate together, forming a solid and sturdy structure. Once the mycelium has fully colonized the substrate, the footstool is dried to halt the growth of the mycelium and then it is ready for use.

Concrete Yard Art Mushrooms
The world of mushroom footstools is a fascinating intersection of innovation, sustainability, and artistic expression. As an advocate for sustainable living and a lover of all things fungi, I am excited to see the continued development and adoption of mushroom-based products in our everyday lives. Whether it’s for their environmental benefits, unique aesthetic, or the joy of cultivating something extraordinary, mushroom footstools are a remarkable addition to the world of furniture design. Mushrooms have fascinated - and nourished and sometimes poisoned - humans for eons. "The remains of a caveman were recently found with mushrooms attached to his belt," Philip Ross says. "The Chinese have studied the mushroom and used the mushroom in medicine for 3,000 years." The Mycological Society of San Francisco ( www.mssf.org) promotes greater understanding of mushrooms, but information on mushrooms was not always easy to come by. "When I first started at this, it was pre-Internet," Ross recalls, "and most people who knew about mushrooms were so secretive." Ross' way into the field was through a writer named Paul Stamets. Still much consulted, one of Stamets' books, "Mycelium Running: How Mushrooms Can Help Save the World," puts scientific meat on the bones laid out by Ross in his class. With only an estimated 10 percent of mushroom species identified, there's much work yet to be done in the field of mycology. A would-be mycologist - or would-be maker of mushroom furniture - has some basic terminology to master. Next, you’ll need to cut out a long strip of wadding. It should be the same width as your footstool and approximately double the length. For instance, my foot stool top measured 40cm square. So my wadding strip measured 40cm by 80cm.Big Twist Tubular Yarnfrom JOANNis so fun. It doesn’t quite feel like normal yarn that we are used to – for this project, I didn’t even have to use a hook! There is a hook size that it does call for but for this project, I just used my hands. Which is a work lout when you’re not used to it!

The natural textures and patterns of the mycelium combined with the earthy tones of the substrate create a captivating visual display.
