Nature's Hats

I saw this tiny half a pod about a month ago and picked it up. I am not sure what tree bears it, but it sure looks cute.

Here is the flip side.  If you know what it is, please let me know.

But I grabbed a few, just in case, it would work as a funny hat for one of my beads.  I have been doing a series on humorous witch doctors, and thought this might add to sense of fun.

If you know what southern tree this grows on, please let me know!  Thanks.
