Though I don’t have a green thumb, I still would like to create a Zen garden to compliment the interior design of my house. Building a Zen garden is like putting nature or to be more specific a miniature landscape in your own home. This area is a good place to do my yoga exercises since the ambiance motivates you to relax.

The location for the garden should be away from all the noise and buzz since you want a place of serenity. The materials needed to make a Zen garden is a rake, sand, gravel, various sizes and texture of rocks, moss, pieces of logs while mini fountains, jars and statues are optional. Pile up the area with gravel and sand then place the stones and other materials aesthetically. When finished decorating it with the given objects use the rake to make lines and curves. Place a chair near it so that you can have a seat to meditate.
