These are suppose to look free formed so don't worry on if you can't draw it will be just fine, the more wiggly your grass shapes are the better they will look.
While shopping for your tablecloth, look for items that have wild animals on them, like paper plates, cups, and silverware. The ones the look like the animals with the little ears will work just fine for this party.
