    5 DIY Indoor Gardening Ideas

    January 25, 2021 by Patti Estep Leave a Comment

    Three indoor gardening projects. A fountain, water garden and kokedama moss ball

    Bring the outdoors in with this easy group of 5 indoor gardening ideas that will give you a Zen state of mind. All are easy to create and offer a sense of peace and tranquility to your home.

    Three kokedama moss balls. Two ferns and one orchid.

    Gardening doesn't have to only occur outside, nor does it only include growing edible plants. Though I do enjoy growing a few edibles the majority of my enthusiasm for gardening has to do with ornamental plants.

    I find that gardening indoors with houseplants is a big help during the winter or sometimes during the hottest days of summer, with my state of mind.

    These tabletop water gardens were so fun to make. I love the marimo moss balls and playing with different stones. They require minimal care and maintenance so you can enjoy their beauty all year round.

    DIY Terrarium - Create a Beautiful Living Indoor Garden

    Terrariums are easier than you think to make and create their own eco-system so you need only enjoy it after creating one. Back in the day, they were sometimes called a Wardian Case as plant specimens were housed in these types of cases for travel. A great craft for people of all ages.

    How to Make a Succulent Birdcage Planter

    Some succulents are more difficult to grow than others and they do require a good amount of light. Tip: Stick to those in the green family and less to the blue or purple. They are easier to grow. However, this beautiful birdcage planter makes an outstanding decor statement for a succulent lover.

    Kokedama: How to Create a Moss Ball String Garden

    Kokedama moss balls are sometimes hung as a beautiful string garden. However, they can also be set on a pretty dish. I started with ferns but the orchid has done the best as it doesn't mind the dry conditions in our home.
