Happy Saturday everyone! I hope you’re all having a great weekend so far. I have a easy outdoor project today that would be great for the garden or patio – a DIY Fountain In A Pot!. This outdoor water feature is pretty easy to make!
This would be especially inexpensive to make if you already own a medium to large pot. There are solar pumps that you can get if you don’t have an outlet nearby. I know we bought one for another project a few years ago and it was under $20.
DIY Fountain In A Pot
Materials:
- Container, 24 inches across or larger
- Pump and fountain
- Premixed quick-dry cement

You can add a personal touch to this fountain by using a colored glazed pot the coordinates with your plantings or maybe adding some pretty stones or glass globes to the inside of the pot before filling it with water.

Love it
I love fountains!
I want to do this!
Great idea and perfect timing. We are getting ready to make our patio area larger (if the rain ever stops here) and this would be a perfect addition.
Oh I need to do this for the corner of our yard where nothing will grow! Thanks for sharing. Now to start searching for a solar pump…
