Tips for the Mushroom Hat
The mushroom cap sits on the bear's head like a hat: a red dome with white dot appliques and a cream underside. Alternatively, the bear can sit on a giant mushroom with the cap as its seat. White French knots scattered on the red cap give the classic toadstool look that fairy tale fans adore.
