Moss walls are spectacular displays of biophilic design and interior decoration. These green walls are made by hand by our local artist’s in South Florida. These pieces are custom fabricated and designed to fit your space. When displaying art that is made of natural materials, accidents can happen. Someone may brush up against the piece and knock some moss off, or if it’s within reach of children they may pull a piece of moss off due to curiosity. These accidents are all fixable with a simple moss wall repair kit. Today, we are going to go through the tools and materials you’ll need to do any minor repairs on your moss wall.

Tips for gluing moss:

-Cut off any excess dirt or moss on the bottom side of the moss. 

-Trim the piece of moss down to the size of the hole you are patching so that the bottom has a level surface and matches the height of the surrounding moss on the wall.

-Put glue on the wall, not on the moss.

-Once your glue is down on the surface of the moss wall in the area that needs repair, press your moss into the spot and hold down a few seconds so the glue has a chance to adhere and dry.

-Massage the moss as needed to blend into the area.
