Every realtor knows how important curb appeal is when selling a home so this may interest you: Grass Painting.  “Grass is Greener” based in Staten Island, New York will paint your yard with an odorless, non-toxic, biodegradable, permanent paint. Rain won’t wash it away and your yard won’t have any unsightly yellow spots. After the paint dries in about 2 hours, you no longer need to water the lawn. If the grass was still growing it lasts about 3 months, if it was dead the color is permanent. The cost is about $125 for 2,000 square feet. Read the full article here.

So what do you think? Would you go this far for a lush looking lawn?

Some of my favorite photos of the houses have to do with the lawns -- no joke. :)

 

Love and light,

I asm not kidding, I have never seen this product before. What a really neat idea and sure does solve the problem of a lawn that doesn't work.

This is new to me. I have to think about this. Painting the lawn. I think I'd have to see a sample first. If it looks artificial I'd go thumbs down. But that's just me.

Yes I've seen this on HGTV quite a few times.  Wouldn't the seller have to disclose that the lawn isn't really green?  A green lawn definitely has value, so if I bought a house that "appeared" to have a green lawn but then discovered that it didn't, I'd feel cheated.

Wow can't believe it but I guess it's being done.  We just had an article in our local newspaper about a woman who did this.  I opt for watering vs. painting.  Something about a lush green lawn which tells potential buyers "I care about the yard as well".
