Moss graffiti
Grow your own moss graffiti! Wow! If this doesn't make you want to rush out and get gardening despite the terrible weather, then nothing will. Whether you want something simple such as 'Love' or 'Grow' or simply 'Keep off the grass', it sounds amazingly simple to do and I for one will be giving it a go. The postman sometimes has trouble finding me, so perhaps a wall emblazoned with my house number would be good for my first moss graffiti project. You can read about the technique in more detail here but basically, all you need to do is crumble moss into a blender with some water, water retention gel and buttermilk, then blend it all up. Then you simply pour it into a bucket and literally paint it onto your wall in whatever design you desire. Amazing!
