Using a cheap paint brush I cut off some bristles.

I then wrapped some of these around a toothpick with a small piece of masking tape.

I cut off most of the toothpick and masking tape leaving only about 1/8" to hold everything together until it was inserted into a hole. Placed some white glue on the end and planted my tall grass.


I then trimmed the tops with scissors ... you can make fatter or taller or different color clumps.

Another wonderful "how-to" Ray! Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ray,I'm slowly moving towards this stage of detail and this (like all of your articles) will come in handy.
ReplyDeleteI like your suggestion of the toothpick. I've been using CA, heat shrink cutoffs, but yours is simplier cleaner and cheaper. BTW, who's PFE Reefer is that? Dave G.
