Upcycling Artificial Lawn Offcuts

 Not only does repurposing synthetic lawn offcuts allow you to get more for your money, but it also helps minimise wastage. Consequently, the environmental impact is improved, which can be a concern associated with artificial grass. Making the most of your synthetic lawn offcuts provides you with all manner of benefits, and some of our favourite upcycling ideas are detailed below.

Artificial Grass Wall

First up is an artificial grass wall, which can create a feature wall within your garden. While outdoor feature walls often consist of flowers and other living things, this requires much maintenance. It’s likely you’ve purchased an artificial lawn in the first place to eliminate garden maintenance from your life. Therefore, introducing more elements to maintain in your outdoor space just doesn’t make sense. That said, you don’t have to sacrifice the aesthetic of your garden.

Instead of opting for flowers and other plant life to decorate your garden, you could go for the synthetic approach. From artificial grass to synthetic flowers, there are ways to embellish your outdoor space without copious amounts of maintenance work. An artificial grass wall is just one of the many ways of achieving this.

Grass Pet Pads

Next up are grass pet pads, which provide your furry friend with their very own outdoor space to lounge upon. While artificial lawns are extremely buoyant, and it takes considerable wear to flatten the fibres, some people aren’t too keen about giving their pets free reign on their brand-new lawns. This is especially true of those creatures of habit who pick one lounging spot and return to it for as many as 15 years. As a result, you might introduce your pet to a separate pad from the get-go, so they familiarise themselves with this instead of your lawn.

Outdoor Table Runner

During the warmer months, there’s nothing better than getting together for a barbecue to enjoy some al fresco dining. This is especially true if you’ve invested a lot of time and money into a brand-new artificial lawn. After all, you’re going to want to make ample use of your renovated space.

Despite this, in the midst of an extensive garden renovation, you might find your garden furniture has suffered. We’re all guilty of leaving our garden furniture outside during the winter months, allowing it to fall victim to the elements. Thankfully, you can use your lawn offcuts to give your outdoor furniture a bit of a refresh. This includes creating a runner for your outdoor table.

Outdoor Cushions

Following on from the idea of garden furniture being neglected during the winter months, outdoor cushions help play into this refresh. Moreover, they reduce the likelihood of future damage being inflicted on your outdoor furniture. This is because traditional upholstery will obviously incur water damage and get dirty when placed outside. On the other hand, artificial grass is specially designed for outdoor applications. As a result, with synthetic lawn offcuts, you’ll be able to create some of the most durable outdoor cushions on the market.

House Number Sign

Perhaps your house lacks a clear door number, or you’d like to spruce up the one you’ve got. If so, artificial grass offcuts can work wonders. By fixing an offcut to a box or board and screwing in your numbers, you’ll have a house number sign that will be the envy of the neighbours.
