Things being as they are, going out to the parks is pretty much out of the question, and outings are limited to your apartment lobby or your front porch. While some people may miss the hustle and bustle of the outdoors, some may miss the openness of greenery.

However, there are alternatives. You can of course, start a little kitchen garden in your back porch or your balcony. You can bring in a few indoor plants. You can start a little window box on the sill.

However, all these require a green thumb, and that’s not something all of us have! So we have a solution that requires much less investment and commitment, but still works to perk up your space and soothe your eyes – a 3D flower garden shadow box craft!
