This is a homemade miniature Zen Garden made from a picture frame, some sand and round aquarium river stones and a candle. A bamboo back scratcher as a rake and voila! A Zen Garden for your bedroom or dorm room. You can get even fancier by buying a small Bonsai tree or one of those battery powered Zen fountains at Wal-Mart for $10.00 and add the soothing sound of trickling water to your garden. Sam.
