Why This Mushroom Set Earns Its Place on the Table
The Mushroom artwork on this canvas frames a cluster of woodland mushrooms at varying heights, caps domed and gilled, ringed by moss, ferns and scattered leaf litter, worked in earthy reds, ochres and deep greens with cream gills and stems. The overall character is woodland and cosy rather than theatrical. Mushroom imagery has moved from seasonal novelty to year-round decor, and the woodland palette is why. It fits anyone who wants a handmade set without the upkeep ceramics demand. Designed for reading nooks and autumn styling, it holds up as decor rather than as something you finish and put in a drawer. Reference BD499. Mushroom imagery has moved from seasonal novelty to year-round decor, and the woodland palette is why. The gill detail under each cap uses fine line work that most kits skip — it is what sells the woodland realism.
mushroom imagery has moved from seasonal novelty to year-round decor, and the woodland palette is why. The woodland colouring is what allows it to sit in reading nooks and autumn styling without dominating.
A DOTZSO kit is designed so the making is restful and the finished piece earns its place in the room. Alongside the canvas you get DOTZSO resin drills, a sorting tray, a comfort-grip applicator pen, a wax caddy and pictorial instructions.
What makes this a working set rather than a display piece is underneath – a cork backing that takes the moisture before it reaches the furniture.
Matched drills across all 8 pieces mean the set looks deliberate when stacked or spread out.

How to Make It
- Unroll the canvas on a flat surface and let it settle under something weighted if it has been rolled tight.
- Find the legend strip and match the first symbol to its drill colour.
- Press the pen tip into the wax caddy, then touch it to a drill – the drill lifts and stays on the tip.
- Set the drill onto the matching printed symbol and press lightly. Work one coaster at a time rather than moving across the whole set.
- Complete all coasters, then press each finished surface flat with a book for an hour to seat every drill.
- Finally, leave the set on the table for a few hours before first use so the drills settle fully.
Finish the set at an easy pace, then leave it on the table rather than boxing it up.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this coaster set come ready to start, with no add-ons to buy?
Yes. The Mushroom coaster set ships complete with the stand shown in the product images, so the coasters have somewhere to live when they are not in use, plus the DOTZSO resin drills, tray, applicator pen, wax caddy and pictorial instructions. Nothing else needs sourcing. Reference BD499.
How tolerant is the Mushroom surface of daily use?
Once the drills are seated and the surface is sealed, the Mushroom design holds under normal use. The cork-backed base is what stops condensation reaching the table, and the sealing step is the single biggest factor in how long the finish lasts. The Mushroom finish is designed to be used, not just looked at.
Can the Mushroom surface be wiped with a damp cloth?
Wipe with a damp cloth and dry immediately. Do not submerge them or put them through a dishwasher — the adhesive layer under the drills is not built for a soak. For the Mushroom palette, earthy reds, ochres and deep greens tones show dust less than pale grounds, so a light pass is usually enough. There is no special product needed for the Mushroom surface.
Is the Mushroom coaster set worked right to the edges?
The drilled finish and palette are matched across the whole set, but each coaster carries its own printed motif. The Mushroom artwork is drawn so that a cluster of woodland mushrooms at varying heights reads clearly at any distance. Coverage on the Mushroom piece is consistent edge to edge.
What time should I allow for the Mushroom design?
Roughly 30 to 45 minutes each for most people, so a full set is a few evenings rather than one sitting. The Mushroom design is woodland and cosy, which tends to make it easier to work in short sessions. Working the Mushroom design in stages keeps it enjoyable.
How simple is the Mushroom design to follow?
Yes. The symbol key is printed directly on the cork-backed base and the pictorial instructions walk through the whole process, so no prior diamond painting experience is needed. The Mushroom layout is woodland and cosy, which helps on a first attempt. Every element needed is supplied.

Wasn’t sure what to expect, but I’m very happy with it. Each one took me a lazy afternoon to finish, quicker than I expected. The mushroom palette is softer in person, which I actually prefer. I take it to my book club and work on it while we chat. Would definitely buy again.

I do these while dinner is in the oven. Great little time filler. Finished piece looks even better in person than in the listing photos. Perfect for a cozy evening project.

I’ve done a handful of these now and this one is up there with the best. It’s the kind of project you feel good about finishing. Recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing craft.
Emma M. –
Was looking for a small diamond art project and these nailed it. The drills sit nice and flush, no gaps showing the surface underneath. The holder doesn’t match the coasters exactly in finish. Quiet Sunday mornings with this and a coffee is my favorite part of the week. Good kit overall, just a couple of small things.
CityGirlCrafts (verified owner) –
Such a fun format – one coaster at a time, no big commitment. Everything I needed was in the box – pen, wax, tray and tweezers. I worked on this during my lunch breaks and it made the days feel better. It fits perfectly with the decor in the dining room. Exactly what I was hoping for.
Javier L. (verified owner) –
Exactly what the listing described, no surprises. Each coaster is a good thickness and feels sturdy in the hand. Using them on the patio table and they’ve held up fine. Worth every penny.

I grabbed these to have something small to work on in the evenings. Each one took me an evening to finish, quicker than I expected. They look great on the sideboard and are genuinely useful. Easy recommendation.

Bought a set as a hostess gift and kept a set for myself. Finish is even and the whole thing looks tidy once you’re done. It’s a slow, quiet hobby and I like that about it. My friends all want one now. The packaging was a little crushed on one corner. The cottagecore palette is softer in person, which I actually prefer. Happy enough that I’d buy another.
Olivia M. (verified owner) –
Got these for the kitchen table and they look so cute. Nothing arrived damaged, and everything was sealed properly. Finish is even and the whole thing looks tidy once you’re done. It’s a lovely quiet hobby, and I like having something to show for it at the end. It turned into something I actually want to display, not shove in a drawer. Really glad I bought it.

Got these for the kitchen table and they look so cute. The cork backing is a nice touch, they don’t slide around on the table. If you like cottagecore designs, this is a good one to go for. I take it to my book club and work on it while we chat. Great kit, no complaints.

Was looking for a small diamond art project and these nailed it. Finished piece looks even better in person than in the listing photos. They’re a bit smaller than I pictured for a large tumbler. Minor things, but I’d still buy it again.
Jorge G. (verified owner) –
I made one the first night just to see how it went, then did the rest over the week. They wipe clean easily, which matters with coffee and kids around. They’re a bit smaller than I pictured for a large tumbler. It turned into something I actually want to display, not shove in a drawer. Overall a good experience.
Kathleen M. –
These are my go-to when I want a small craft that still feels rewarding. The cork keeps them from sticking to the table when there’s condensation. Really happy with the end result. Definitely recommend giving it a try.
Brittany J. (verified owner) –
I keep coming back to this shop because the quality is consistent. Glue coverage was even, no dry patches anywhere. Everyone who comes over picks one up to look at it. Worth every penny.
Elijah N. (verified owner) –
I wanted something I could finish in a sitting or two and these were it. The cork keeps them from sticking to the table when there’s condensation. I take it to my book club and work on it while we chat. Very pleased with how it came together. The adhesive picked up a bit of dust while I was working over several days. Would order again despite the small issues.
Julie A. (verified owner) –
My third kit from this shop and still really pleased. They look great on the sideboard and are genuinely useful. Exactly what I was hoping for.
Sierra T. (verified owner) –
This was my first diamond painting kit and I’m officially hooked. Nice thickness – not the flimsy cardboard kind. It’s become my evening ritual – an hour of this and I feel settled. I bring them out for guests and always get asked about them. The cottagecore design is even prettier in person than in the photos. Solid kit, would order again.
Donna P. (verified owner) –
So glad I added this one to my cart. The cottagecore design is even prettier in person than in the photos. Going to order a few more for Christmas presents. Happy customer here.

Got these for the kitchen table and they look so cute. I bring them out for guests and always get asked about them. Will be back for more.
SouthernSparkle (verified owner) –
I’ve been doing these for about a year and this is a solid kit. Cork on the bottom plus the drill top makes them feel solid. I found it really peaceful to focus on one small area at a time. I’ve had three people ask me where I bought it. Some colors came with barely any extras, though I didn’t run out. Overall a good experience.
Brandon H. (verified owner) –
Got these for the kitchen table and they look so cute. The cottagecore pattern is what drew me in and it didn’t disappoint. Already ordered another one from DOTZSO. The holder doesn’t match the coasters exactly in finish. Would order again despite the small issues.
Colton H. (verified owner) –
This was my first diamond painting kit and I’m officially hooked. Good weight to the materials, it doesn’t feel cheap. Finish is even and the whole thing looks tidy once you’re done. It’s my go-to when I want something enjoyable that doesn’t take much thought. Using them on the patio table and they’ve held up fine. Worth every penny.
