I’m pretty sure I haven’t shared this ornament before, as it’s fairly new (within the last few years) but if I have, here it is again, a ceramic mushroom made by the significant other of one of our nephews and given to us by Mr. Karen’s sister Kathy. The stem is attached the to cap only by a string, so it can move freely like the clapper of a bell, and indeed if the tree gets jostled, the mushroom can ring and sound like a windchime or bell. We do try not to jostle the tree though.
