What is the shelf made of? Is PLA sturdy enough?
Absolutely! All 5 mushrooms in your Tree Sponge set are made from PLA (polylactic acid), a corn-starch bioplastic that's surprisingly sturdy. Each shelf holds up to ~2 lbs / 1 kg. Contrary to what you might think, PLA is very stable and durable. Your Tree Sponge set will stay with you for years. The only limitation: PLA isn't suitable for wet areas or outdoor use and shouldn't come into contact with water above 140 °F (60 °C).
Which color works best with my decor?
It depends on your style — and with the Tree Sponge set, color looks especially striking as a group thanks to the 5 different shapes:
- Black — the all-rounder. Goes with industrial, modern, and Scandinavian. The different mushroom shapes look especially sculptural as a dark cluster.
- White — subtle and elegant. Perfect for bright, minimalist rooms. The cluster comes alive through subtle shadows.
- Beige — warm and natural. Ideal for boho, Japandi, or earthy color schemes. Closest to the real mushroom color!
- Pink-Black — the eye-catcher! A statement set for bold interiors or as an eye-catcher in the kids' room.
- Blue-Green — fresh and striking. Great in a kids' room, home office, or as a contrast in bright rooms.
Tip: Beige or Black are our recommendations for the most natural
tree sponge look!
Does the wall shelf set make a good gift?
And what a gift! The Tree Sponge set is one of the most popular gifts at Roomberry — for birthdays, housewarmings, Christmas, or just as a surprise. Why? Because it's original, hand-crafted in America, and something the recipient almost certainly doesn't have yet. 5 mushrooms that together form a work of art — who else has that? We ship in neutral, high-quality packaging — perfect for passing along as a gift.
How should I arrange the 5 mushrooms?
That's the beauty of the set: it's completely up to you! Our favorite: all 5 mushrooms close together as a cluster — with the largest mushroom (L) on top or in the middle and the smaller ones around it. That creates the natural tree sponge look. But you can also hang them spread out, in a row, or even split them across different rooms. You'll find several arrangement suggestions in the mounting instructions. And best of all: you can rehang them anytime and try a new arrangement!
How long does shipping take, and can I return it?
Made to order in California — ships in ~1-2 weeks, tracked. Because every shelf is made to order, we need a few days to produce and quality-check all 5 mushrooms. In exchange, your set is made fresh just for you. Shipping is calculated at checkout. And if you don't love it after all: you have 60 days to fall in love — otherwise just send your order back to us.
