Little Zen Garden

Step 7 Zen Beach; putting it together

• Make the same rake used in the Zen Garden -see step 3.
• Pour sand into the saucer about 3/4 full, and rake it.
• Place your umbrella and beach blanket so that you are protected from the sun and keep your beach ball close, for when you would like play in the water.

Thanks, I live in Canada, so in the winter, it's nice to daydream of a nice sunny beach.

Nice hope you can visit the Jersey shore some time

I made something similar few years ago. I is really nice decoration, but has one big disadvantage - it is nearly impossible to dust off without damaging the scenery. I also recommend to not trying to blow the dust off, you will only end with sand all over your place.

Yes, unfortunately, that's true.

Great idea! I just made one and put in a plastic hermit crab toy.

Why not take some chicken wire with tiny holes in it and make a fence around it and use something for the top and then put a real hermit crab in it? You could call the crab zen master or think up some buddhist monk name for it.

Zen master crab, what a cute idea.

Yeah I should try that some time
