Grow a Grass Embankment

Materials

1. Polystyrene Block, ideally a solid block used for wall insulation available from DIY stores. This is inexpensive.
2. PVA Glue.
3. Bonding Gauze, typically used for covering plasterboard joins. But any gauze will do, e.g. first aid bandage.
4. Textured Ceiling Plaster. But any plaster that dries hard will do.
5. Fibre Mat. Hair/Jute mix - important. See if I'm selling some on Ebay.
6. Washing up liquid.
7. Green water based paint.
8. Yellow Ochre water based paint.

Tools

1. Polystyrene Cutting Tool, e.g. bread knife, hacksaw blade or hot wire.
2. Small Trowel, to apply plaster.
3. 25mm Paint Brush, to apply paint base.
4. Glue Spreader, with serrated edge preferred.
5. Hair Comb
6. Dressmaking or Hair Scissors, and/or electric hair clippers.
7. Modelling Air Spray Gun and Propellant. Preferred, but dabbing with a paint brush is possible.
