DIY water feature for small spaces. Follow my guide to make a space-saving water feature that enhances your outdoor area.
What you will need
- Engineering bricks or large stones
- Pebbles or stones of your choice I used white cobbles from B&M)
- A water tight bucket (I got mine from Hudsons plant centre)
- Solar powered fountain (I got mine from Hudsons but amazon sell similar here) Note: If you are intending to have fish you will need a filter as per the one I have if not you will not need a filter and there are cheaper alternatives.
- Pond Plants
- Water
- Fish (if you are adding fish)
How to make: Your DIY Water Feature
- WASH YOUR PEBBLES OR STONES – I made the mistake of lightly rinsing these but the water went cloudy so make sure you thoroughly wash your pebbles or stones before adding the water
- Position your bucket where you would like it
- Arrange your engineering bricks or large stones (I used engineering bricks so the fish can hide in the holes and the filter can be lodged through one of the holes)
- Set up your filter into a position of your choice (note: make sure the water stays inside the bucket)
- add your WASHED pebbles/stones
- Add your plants
- Fill with water (if you are adding fish you will need to wait for around a week or use de-chlorinator then wait a day or 2
- Add fish (if you are)
