Look at my name and then criticize my cache.
Is it too over the top? Too busy? Too noticeable? I also have glued some mushroom candles inside of the lid, so when you open it they POP right out, lol. And we made a mushroom hitchhiker travel bug too which can be seen hanging from the lid in the last pic
I clear coated the box so that paint will hopefully last longer too.
and my FTF prize is an etched bracket/shelf fungi that i sanded down so it'll stand on its own, but I thought it was supposed to be F2F and not FTF, lol. You think they'll mind?The back side of it can be seen in the final pic...(yes, its a real mushroom)
I also included a $2 scratch ticket for the 2nd to find prize.
Thanks in advance. My girlfriend and I spent a lot of time on it, lol, probably too much
Sorry for the poor image quality.

Now, just gotta find a creative place to place it once I find a few more caches and get newer ideas

I think that's fine, it gives people something to puzzle over . I almost like "F2F" better than "FTF", maybe you'll start a trend! There's no strict abbreviation requirement for such a prize, if you place one. But you just plain must also sign your name on it, or the cache name, so it's a proper souvenir . Good creativity on the box, too!

By the way, on my first cache, the "FTF" took the "second-to-find" prize. So don't be too surprised if they're taken out of sequence.

Awesome, good reply, thats the kinda thing I was looking for.
Ill take it back in and have it re-lasered when I think of a cache name...thanks!

"Something to puzzle over".....? The box or the f2f mistake?

Very creative! I would probably just be happy to take the adorable TB!

Nice size cache. And no one can argue that there's not muchroom inside

(Sorry, but the old ones are the best)

Love it by the way, always nice to find something that someone has put some thought and effort into - always appreciated.

Thanks i carved the mushroom tb, my g/f painted it :-)

Im thinking it'll be called mushroom kingdom or something similar. I have an evil fake mushroom nano coming to compliment this somewhere across town.

Im/we are gonna wait til 50-100 caches to place them, however. I want to see more unique placements (if they exist around here).
All ive seen are boxes hidden behind trees or in log piles. Ive only seen 1 nano, which was a baseball size piece of limestone with a nano drilled in and hidden in a rock wall. That was pretty cool.

Thanks, people :-)

That's why I'm only allowed on here under strict supervision

[Mushroom420]

Tell Tinker that's probably for the best, hahahahaha...

Thanks for the kind words

[fuzziebear3]

Love the cache, all the creative touches are great!

[Mushroom420]

Thanks, Fuzzy


I went ahead and lasered "Mushroom Kingdom" on it (the F2F)...as that'll be the caches name

I ended up placing my evil mushroom cache instead. Its a mushroom nano cache.
The ammo box will have to wait until my girlfriend is available to help me choose a place.

my first cache placed and 1 find and already 1 favorite point...yaaaay. makes me happy :-)

Nicely decorated container, Mushroom420. I enjoy finding boxes like that, where the extra effort and pride in putting together the hide shows! The F2F is as easily understood as the usual FTF, and just puts your personal spin on the term IMO.

Oh, that is baaaad!

I don't hide many micros, but your pun reminded me of one I put out with this container:



The cache was titled Questionable Roominess.

Thanks, this is the cache I hid the other day, its pretty nasty, lol ...I had to hide tweezers under the flat rock on the left to access the log thoughMycology 101

All of these are really awesome. It would be great to find these because it shows the pride and care of the owner in placing caches like this. Great work!!
