I'm planning a dio whose setting is inside a barn type building and I was wondering if anyone has any ideas.. or knows of any articles on making hay.... which I could cover the floor of the barn with.

Thanks.

hey Hisham I have read where people have used cheap paint brush bristles (from brushes used to paint houses,etc) . There is also some "grass" from Woodland Scenics that is blond and would be excellent for hay. Hudson & Allen have a product called "hay" ..The paint brush bristles may be the easiest thing to find,though..Someone asked a similar question on this website and there were some good ideas but I cant find which forum it was in...anyhow,good luck with your project !

Brush bristles are a good place. You can also try to use some dried flower parts from a flower shop. Some of them produce some hay like pieces.
