Can someone give me some interesting places where and on what to plant grass seeds ?

Can anyone give me some interesting artistic ways in which I can use grass as an art form or just to plant it in other ways except on my lawn. I took a plastic Coke bottle, filled it with soil and threw in some grass seeds. Its now stands nice and tall inside the Coke bottel and overflows like hair where it exits the mouth of the bottle. Its fun to trim it because you can layer i like hair or cut it nice and short, its such an attractive feauture. I read somewhere that you can plant grass on a lava rock because the rocks so rich in nutrients that it grows extremely fast. A friend of mine took her silk stalkings, filled it with soil, threw in some grass seeds and made a knot at the end. She sewed 2 buttons on for the eyes and a big one for the mouth and it forms a little face with green hair which she can cut when it gets too long. So any people out there that have any other interesting ideas of what to do with grass except sowing it on a lawn, please let me know. Its a lotta fun !

I made a little thin table (sort of like a window box with legs) with grass growing in it. I put it under a window in my house so my cat can lay on it and have a place to sit by the window so she can look out. My yard is mostly mulch, native plants, and pebbles because I live where it is hot and it would require too much water to have a lawn, so I have some grass growing in small pots because it is better protected. I bet it would look interesting if I had a whole bunch next to each other. I like your idea about the coke bottle.... I have lots of empty yogurt containers, so what I would do is wrap them in paper and draw different faces on them. Then take your idea of growing grass in them and cut it into different hairstyles. That might actually be funny if you were a hairstylist and had that decorating the workspace!! It would even make a fun project for students or something similar! keep up the creativity!
