Had a sample from these companys when doing our kids play area.
Very useful for putting in the kids 'art & doing' box !;)

I applied for this a long while ago, it raised a lot of laughs from my family. I was so excited as it was one of my first freebies OMG It eventually went in the bin as I had no need for it.
I suppose it would be ok if you wanted grass for a toy farm or something but I wont apply again. I see now why we have real grass on the lawn - no amount of squinting makes this 'grass' look real !!

Hey adbrook, what happens if the cat or dog next door, uses it as a toilet! ooh yuck - what a horrid thought!

I think that these samples should be turfed out!

I do agree the fake grass is not nice looking in the garden.
But these samples are useful for other things which is what i was
suggesting. I used my samples to make a 'touch and feel' book for
my children, along with other samples of carpets etc. They had more
joy out of a homemade book and it was all free! My older chiildren then
used some fake grass for making christmas cards...makes good christmas
trees!!!;)
