DIY or Buy it? I didn’t want to spend the $1200 and I was able to make this one for $195!
I combined an outdoor bowl and planter to create this gorgeous fountain and they fit perfectly together. All you need is a copper pipe, Flex Seal tape/spray, a submersible pump, and rocks. I also put some bricks in the pedestal planter and used water down paint and a cloth to create the coloring I wanted. The outcome is so beautiful and soothing, it’s just what my garden needed.

She is clueless. That thing is going to be a pain to keep clean and service
Show something more of yourself, this is a a dull video.
Flex seal will only last about a year
YAY!! 🎉
I was wondering why she have a rubber molet 😅but it was the pump😂🤣
now your leaching all
these chemicals into water that birds drink
So while interesting you have a design flaw…. At some point 2-6 x a year you will want to clean out the bowl…. And you glued it all together 😮
There is no way to drain or clean this
So how did YOU actually make this? Where did you get the components such as the bowl and the pedestal to just put it together?
You need to pronounce fountain with the “t”
Gorgeous!❤
I agree with previous comments about not using Flex Seal and using plumbers putty. I’ve made several fountains myself and keeping it clean and maintained is what is always my first thought, then esthetic. However, I do like the idea of using the copper pipe instead of the tubing, so, thanks. I’ll adhere the pipe with pudgy rather than Flex Seal.
This lady will find out the hard way as most of have, though nice try for her first go at it.
Beautiful good job !
This is beautiful, I will do this with solar! Thank you for your smart and beautiful ideas! Your yard is fabulous 👌
Great job
Half of the 195 was the copper tubing 😂
I love the design. Of the bowl and the base not trying to be judgment, but you could do everything to sing not have to use no flex cell or any chemicals. Put your pump on the bottom run your house at the top. You could also fill the bottom with water and put your pump down there and run a longer tube to the bowl put a hole in the bottom of the bowl the same size as the tube poke small hose around the bottom of the bowl fill up the b bottom and the bowl your water will last longer. The holes in the bottom of the bowl will return the water to the base and it’ll keep recycling itself..
SWEETHEART, YOU ARE AMAZINGLY GORGEOUS , THE THOUGHT OF THE ROCKS FOR WEIGHT WAS ABSOLUTELY SPOT ON AND YOU ACHIEVED A FABULOUS
FOUNTAIN , I PAINTED MY BOWEL A POWDER BLUE AND PUT A BRICK INSIDE SO THE BIRDS HAD SOMETHING TO SIT ON WHILE THEY BATHED AND I ADDED A
REPLACEMENT FILTER FOR CATCHING DEBRIS , BIRD DROPPINGS FEATHERS , LEAVES , DEAD BUGS WHATEVER , THANK YOU SO MUCH , YOU GORGEOUS
LADY , A FANTASTIC IDEA , MAKE SURE TO REMIND YOUR HUSBAND EXACTLY HOW LUCKY AND FORTUNATE HE IS TO HAVE MET YOU ❗️🙏😇😇
Great idea
Nice !
You can put something on top or around the tube to make it more attractive.
Did this cost $1200 to make? If so I'd outrightly buy one for that kind of money. I've make something similar, but just used a solar fountain sprayer in the top bowl.
where did you get those sandals?
would
What about the toxin in the paint for the birds?
You did a wonderful job that I really loved it so much it was really a great idea that gives me an idea now when I'm going to do for my yard
BS
So you made a 200 dollar fountain nice
Best one I’ve seen so far👍🏻
This is a Beautiful and affordable job! Thank you so much for a great idea! I was looking around for a fountain but this looks like way more fun and wowwwww so big. Oh and great thinking on using that copper pipe, that will keep algae away!! Awesome job!❤
too many chemicals. Is this sponsored? Please disclose if this is an ad!
Lol 1200$??? 😂😂😂 C'mon lady. I respect the drive but this isn't good.
Concrete = better for the environment and water quality
There is a T in the word fountain.
So how do you keep the rocks clean and free of algae?
Price of electricity is too expensive
