  1. 7 DIY Water Features Ideas That Will Save You Major

    Time and Money PRESENTED BY KYLE CAMPBELL
  2. Water Feature Water Features are aesthetically pleasing and provide a

    serene atmosphere that can enhance any outdoor or indoor space. By following these do-it-yourself (DIY) ideas, you can create your water fountain without breaking the bank. So let's dive right into it!
  3. IDEA 1: THE RECYCLED CONTAINER FOUNTAIN Our first idea involves

    repurposing items you may already have lying around. Find a suitable container, such as an old pot, barrel, or teapot. You will also need a water pump, tubing, and decorative elements like stones or shells. You can create a unique and environmentally friendly water fountain by assembling these components.
  4. Idea 2: The Tiered Pot Fountain In this idea, we

    take advantage of the versatility of terracotta pots. Gather three different-sized pots, a water pump, and a sturdy base. Stack the pots, with the largest at the bottom and the smallest at the top. Insert the water pump and add water to the top pot. The water flows from one pot to another, creating a visually pleasing cascading effect.
  5. Idea 3: The Bamboo Spout Fountain For our third idea,

    we turn to the elegance of bamboo. Find a thick bamboo stem and cut it to the desired height. Create a small opening near the top to allow water to flow through. Attach the bamboo spout to a water pump and place it in a basin or container. The water will gracefully flow out of the bamboo spout, creating a tranquil atmosphere.
  6. Idea 4: The Rock Column Fountain If you want a

    modern and minimalist design, the rock column fountain is the way to go. Start by acquiring a tall columnar rock, preferably with a flat top. Hollow out the rock and insert a water pump. The water will rise from the top of the rock and gently cascade down the sides, providing a soothing visual and auditory experience.
  7. IDEA 5: THE WALL- MOUNTED CASCADING FOUNTAIN In this idea,

    we explore vertical space by creating a wall-mounted cascading fountain. You will need a water pump, tubing, and a decorative backdrop, such as a slate or tile wall. Attach the water pump to the bottom of the wall and connect it to a series of small spouts or tubes. The water flows down the wall, creating a mesmerizing cascade effect.
  8. Idea 6: The Solar- Powered Fountain For those who appreciate

    eco-friendly solutions, our sixth idea involves harnessing the sun's power. You can create a self-sustaining water fountain using a solar-powered water pump. Connect the pump to a water basin or container, and as sunlight hits the solar panel, it will power the pump, circulating the water and creating a tranquil atmosphere.
  9. IDEA 7: THE WINE BARREL FOUNTAIN Our final idea takes

    advantage of the rustic charm of wine barrels. Find a wine barrel, preferably one no longer suitable for holding liquid. Cut an opening on the top and insert a water pump. Decorate the barrel with stones, plants, or other elements to enhance its visual appeal. The water will flow from the top of the barrel, creating a delightful water feature.
