Being stuck indoors doing the same old thing can get boring. But who says it has to stay that way? Beat the boredom by doing process art projects with recycled household items! Check out these 11 indoor craft projects that coincide with being inside:

 

1. Coffee Pod Art

Add some decorations to your walls using coffee filters strung together to create a rainbow tie-dye heart garland! It’s a sure way to bring color into any room.
