There are so many ways of doing grass for landscaping. I've never had to landscape as yet and would like to do it as realistically as possible but I spent most of the night dreaming of the different ways of creating it! There's static grass, either the type you buy or you can make it using florists foam or sawdust. There's a range of grasses attached to paper or other. Or there's moss which you can again, cut up and scatter similar to static grass. I'm aiming for the unkempt meadow look, I have a range of different bits of greenery that I have collected over the years. But now feeling stuck, unable to move forward until I can choose which way to do grass!!! Would love people's opinions please!!

I took clumps of flocking material, and patted them down to create a thin layer of grass on the base. I mixed small batches so that the mixture would not dry out while I worked, but the process went quite fast for me. This is the first time that I ever flocked dollhouse lawn, and I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was. Read more at: http://thegarfieldblog.blogspot.com/2014/06/the-perfect-lawn.html -

You can use Scenic Cement to glue the grass on, or you can simply use watered down white glue. I have used both during my project, and got the same result. If you are watering down glue, make sure it is not so watery that it will not hold down the grass after it dries. It will be the consistency of full-cream milk, and slightly slimy from the glue. I poured the flocking material into a disposable bowl, and mixed it with the glue so it looked like avocado dip. Read more at: http://thegarfieldblog.blogspot.com/2014/06/the-perfect-lawn.html -

Many many years ago, I had bought two Woodland Scenics landscaping kits from Hobby Lobby. I finally dusted off the boxes and was surprised that the Scenic Cement (watered down glue) was still OK to use! I found one medium pouch of "Green Blended Turf" and smaller pouches of "Burnt Grass Fine Turf," "Green Grass Fine Turf" and "Medium Green Coarse Turf," all of which I mixed together in a zip-lock bag to get enough material to flock the lawn.

I painted the wooden base with a coat of sap green acrylic paint, before adding the grass. Read more at: http://thegarfieldblog.blogspot.com/2014/06/the-perfect-lawn.html -

I wanted to keep this build quite small so there was a limited space for gardening but these hollyhocks were perfect for the idea I had in my head of an old cottage garden. They are from WAM Miniaturen. The rest of the garden is made up of bits and bobs from the supplies box.© Jo Medvenics 2012
