Where do fly agaric umbrellas exist?

April 3, 2009 1:15 PM

Where can I find a mushroom umbrella for sale on the internets? More specifically, an umbrella that looks like the fly agaric.

So it is a rainy day today, and I see a bunch of children with umbrellas. And I think to myself, teehee, they look like little mushrooms! Then a glorious thought occurs: wouldn't a fly agaric umbrella be the coolest thing ever?? So I get home and search the internets for mushroom-themed umbrellas, but they don't seem to exist. Surely someone has had this idea before... I mean, it's brilliant! At the very least, I'm sure Japan has them.

Thus I have come to seek assistance from the hive mind. Has anyone seen such a thing for sale, or is there a place that does custom umbrellas for cheap? Thanks!

That would be a neat umbrella. Found this one, which has a much more regular pattern of dots than a fly agaric and lacks the luscious cream underneath but might be passable if you can't find any other.

This sounds like the sort of thing you could commission someone on etsy to make for you. I agree, a great idea!

Alternatively, you might be able to make something passable here, or at any of the other places that print promotional goods.
