When I was a child I was fascinated by this very tiny book of mushrooms. At my grandparents place I spent a lot of time watching the illustrations and the handwritten notes on each page; Edible. Poisonous. Tasty. Delicious.
Since some years the book is mine to keep. And now I use it as inspiration for a spread in a children´s book.
The Mushroom House, Ohio, by architect Terry Brown.
The page (Roadside Architecture) from where the Mushroom House link was found, is a true mine of inspiration! If you are looking for images of donut signs, mini golf courses, giant insects, interesting places, bottle villages or fairy tale parks... It is really an amazing collection! The woman behind the collecting is Debra Jane, who also runs this blog.
