How to Make Moss Graffiti; An Amazing Garden Update

Are you planning to transform your garden? If you have heard of the latest incredible Moss Graffiti, you would know it could be an amazingly innovative addition to your garden wall.

Plus if you want to cover up a hideous water mark or even a hole on the wall that you would not rather pay to repair, moss graffiti can save the day!

For those who don’t know what moss graffiti are, they are basically graffiti done on a wall from moss. This could a word or even a picture. I personally would like to see this wonderful idea done on a rather washed-up wall. But even if it’s a new wall, you can try this idea to give it more of a “green” look.

Starting up

Since moss graffiti is a great replacement for spray painting on a wall, this too need a “moss paint”. You will have to give some time for the moss to grow and fill up as you wish. Before starting out, find the best moss from your garden or you can even buy moss from florist. Gather up as much moss as you can find from pavements, bricks, walkways etc. Moss from the wild might not work since it needs to be grown on a wall.

Ingredients

A small handful of moss

2 cups of buttermilk or unflavoured yoghurt

2 cups of water

½ tsp. of sugar

Preparing the “Moss Paint”

Wash off any soil or sand from the moss. Break up the moss in to little parts in the blender. Add the buttermilk or yogurt, water and sugar and blend the mixture for a several minutes until it’s smooth and of paint-like texture.

“Painting” the wall

Pour the mixture from the blender into the bucket. Use a small paint brush to paint the wall with the Moss Milk. You can write a single word or even draw a picture as you wish. Get your creative juices flowing!
