Previously, many homes were impeccably polished and designed to impress guests. However, once fun was no longer an option, homeowners began to think seriously about choosing the design that would make them happiest, and the whimsical style was born.
According to Elite Daily, freakcore includes all of the following terms: fun, quirky, usually colorful, and exudes good vibes. Those who subscribe to this aesthetic often surround themselves with elements inspired by forests and meadows. The strange thing that has conquered social networks is mushrooms. There's been a lot of demand for mushroom art and decor this year, according to Pinterest, and they don't expect the hype to die down anytime soon. Below you will learn about the different types of mushroom decoration on the market and what makes this art form so appealing to so many people.
Unique items for each room

Take Etsy for example: a quick search turns up various styles of glass vases, wall art, and 3D mushroom sculptures. Plus, there are items for almost every room in the house, including plush toys, pillows and nightlights for bedrooms, cups and plates for the kitchen, and rugs for the living room. Urban Outfitters also has a large selection of mushroom items: they have wall hangings, posters, shower curtains, bath rugs, and wall hangings in the foyer. These mushrooms are becoming popular as holiday decorations, such as the crochet Christmas tree ornaments from World Market.
What makes mushrooms so attractive?

Those who prefer a more minimalist style can opt for brown, white, or green pieces, like this set of six vintage-style wall prints from Etsy. On the other hand, purists or eclectic fans might prefer things with a more glamorous look, like this disco ball, which is also for sale on Etsy. Since there are so many options, everyone can find something to their taste.
Another attractive factor is the wide price range for mushroom-inspired products. For example, Urban Outfitters has hippie posters for $10 for your wall, or eclectic blankets for $149 to $159 for your bed. This means that no matter how much you're willing to spend, you're sure to find something that fits both your aesthetic needs and your budget.
