Thats what i was thinking. I think a tenon and rivet joint would work but I want to avoid the line from where the rivet is peined to the cap piece..
Id like the mushroom to be quite prominent in scale to the fire poker shaft.

Hello all
Ive received a request to make a mushroom themed fire poker as a gift and im a bit stuck on where to start. I imagined it having a large toadstool as the main topper. Im just unsure on how id go about making it.
Alternatively, id go for multiple smaller mushrooms coming from the top with thinner stalks and flatter caps...
Any ideas??

cheers, i get that bit. Its more having the entire mushroom motif detatched from the shaft of the poker. I think that can be done by using either far edge of anvil or a hardy fullering tool and a little bit of upsetting, just to give the stalk of the mushroom more prominence
