Grass time! DIY :)

3/9/2017

Grass time! We had used felt before but it felt a lil flat. Wanted more texture :) Thought about model type squares at first but then looked at our units and we would have to order a LOT and that would get very expensive. So instead we ordered fake turf/grass of eBay in Australia and it's about 17mm (1.7cm) thick. It has a rubber back and it's weaved in type thing. It came in a big roll so I can easily cut it with kitchen scissors.

Next lot of photos to show you how I cut it :) I first tried it the way it came, and used a spare shelf to cut around. That worked but it was easier if I just flipped the roll over lol.

Above is the best way to cut it. I tried (before checking lol) just randomly cutting but ran into the sewed area and it's hard to get through. But cut between them like above and it works so much easier :)

This shows the height :)

It sure makes a mess though xD And this is just what's on the shelf after working a few bits lol. Vacuum gets it up easy :)
