This is such a great photo. I have been reupholstering this couch we got for free and I wanted it to look like this! I wanted it to be a spot in our play room for the kids to just relax and daydream and be as close to laying out on the lawn as we can get (without actually having to lay on the frozen, dormant grass). Anyway, due to some budget restraints and "grass-like" fabric being in short supply, my enthusiasm has dropped significantly and it is now, just a couch. Well, less than that- it is a yellowish couch with black and white trim. Can you hear the lack of enthusiasm in my typing?! I love projects, but when I had a "vision" and missed the mark soooo bad...! Oh well! I still love this photo! I will post a picture if I can get enough umpfhh to finish the job!

Okay, I love the couch. It actually cracks me up in a really good way. Maybe you could find an astroturf throw rug!

Your couch will turn out great. You will just have to keep your lawn couch in the back of your mind until you come across the perfect material at a good price. I think someday I will have a couch like the one in the picture. That is awesome.
