Punkshroom what???

New Punkshroom Collection


I'm calling my current collection Punkshroom. Its steampunk meets mushroom meets the edgier side of the 'shroom. You can run searches on "Steampunk Mushroom" and find some wonderful things. I really enjoyed this Reddit Post on Mushrooms.


Mushrooms are powerful, and delicate, and healthy, and deadly, and tiny, and huge, and people are using them to micro dose, to treat PTSD, so many amazing things. It's moved beyond the basement of That '70's Show, and it's not just for hippies. That's all without getting into the amazing variety of delicious mushrooms used in all types of food.


Have I done 'shrooms? I've been asked this so many times haha. The answer is no. I love eating mushrooms, I have always been drawn to the mushroom aesthetic -- especially a la Alice in Wonderland. But I have never partaken of any of the magic. I'm sorry if that's disappointing. To be honest, I react weirdly to all sorts of things and I rapid process things and I have never been adventurous with anything that makes you feel not in control of what's happening. Maybe one of these days I'll share more about living with narcolepsy and sleep paralysis (if you just caught your breath because you know first-hand what this is, I'm so sorry. You are not alone.).


That doesn't change my enjoyment when I hear all of the stories people share with me about their experiences on 'shrooms. They are fabulous! Some are scary, some are fun, some are absolutely wild! And some are wonderful stories of healing from all sorts of things by using them. I think that's awesome!


Over the last several years I've watched mushrooms grow in popularity - and I love it when things I love are back in fashion! Throw in my passion for steampunk and we're in business! Literally lol. That's how we get to Punkshroom. It's unique. It's my take on this amazing fusion. I'm really happy to share it with you and I hope you enjoy it too.
