How To Be Green - Easy Updates

"The best way to garden is to put on a wide-brimmed straw hat
and some old clothes. And with a hoe in one hand and a cold
drink in the other, tell somebody else where to dig".
- Texas Bix Bender, Don't Throw in the Trowel

I adore stylist Deb McLean, from Busy Being Fabulous, iphone photos. I have been a big lover for a long time now in using grass to cover outdoor furniture. My love affair started with architects Fung + Blatt's grass chaise lounge they designed at the begining of 2000. It's such a simple, cheap yet striking contribution to any garden. It would work for a small patio or for an estate. Only thing you need to remeber is it's living so don't forget to water!
 
Deb has provided us a great starting point to get creative in the garden. One other thing green and white is such a great colour combo to create a crisp, clean and fresh look. Perfect for an outdoor room xxx

  1. What a great conversation piece that would be on your patio or deck. Very unique and alive.

    Are they using some sort of grass seed mat?
