Get it? The stools are toadstools! I re-covered and painted these mini-stools which I got at an auction last year. The table we had in our basement.

I made the tablecloth out of scraps I had already. The red was leftover from the gnome hat material and the white is just felt. The circles are adhered with fabric glue.
