I wanted a water feature in our front garden, but did not want to deal with electrical chords. I decided to make my own using a solar powered fountain pump! It turned out great and was so easy to make. How I Made My Fountain It only takes a few simple items about about 20 minutes to make this fountain! Here are the items I used: Two pots (one larger than the other) A pot or bucket to fit in the larger pot A bag of pebbles or potting soil Heavy rocks or bricks Solar powered pump A sunny and level spot I love my fountain! And even better the entire thing cost only $50 to make! But the very best part is, as a parent to an almost 3 year old, I don’t have to worry about dangerous wires and chords in the yard.

This DIY water feature is very simple: all you need is a solar powered fountain pump, a planter, and water!
