Much to my husband’s reservation (and now delight), I’ve taken one more stab at using an artificial grass rug.  This time it’s on my concrete slab patio.  But obviously, I couldn’t just put a rug on my patio. I had to cut it up and turn it into a graphic pattern.

This was SO easy, y’all.  It looks complicated, but it’s really not.  Let me explain.
