I've never tried this but I have used plastic table cloths to make fringe. I would think you could do the same thing. We used rolls of the disposable stuff that you cut as you go because we needed a lot. You could buy individual cloths if you don't need as much. I would get green but you could also get beige to look like the dried grass. I've seen skirts green and beige. I would glue one end of the plastic to a length of elastic. Stretch the elastic onto the plastic as you glue so you'll have a gathered look when you let go. Then just cut the skirt into the width of strips to look like grass. It might be time consuming. The fringe I made wasn't as skinny, so we were able to just glide the scissor up quickly. It's certainly worth a try.
