'Silly Shrooms' - Kula Cloth ® Artist Series
I feel like I'm in the movie Zoolander when I say this, but: MUSHROOMS ARE SO HOT RIGHT NOW! And these mushrooms? Well, they are whimsical... adorable... curious... creative and special. They are the beautiful art of a talented artist named Alex, and I'm so grateful that we have the opportunity to share this cheerful pattern with all of you.
I hope it reminds you that you can be, do or create anything that you can dream in your mind. You can add eyeballs to mushrooms. You can travel the world. You are infinitely capable of EVERYTHING and ANYTHING. Imagine what life would look like if we took that knowledge and integrated it into our hearts -- just like the way that a mycelium weaves its way through the tapestry of the soil of our planet.
We are like that too, but our mycelium is love -- and it's the fabric that connects all of us. We, are like the beautiful little mushrooms, sprouting all over the world -- just waiting to remember the miracle that we are.
You are loved, friends.
