DIY Water Feature for Yard The soothing sound of a bubbling fountain or a trickling waterfall can have an immediate calming and relaxing effect on our minds and bodies. Even with a small outdoor space… or a small budget, you can create a DIY one-of-a-kind water element, without breaking the bank. It’s amazing what you can create with just a few tools, pots, and plants that can rival more expensive store-bought renditions.
Don’t be daunted by the “DIY” concept. A small-scale water feature is, in fact, an easy DIY project that will add a lot of peacefulness to your backyard, or curb appeal to your front yard. The water element you create can be in the form of a waterfall, bubbler, “pondless” pond, or even a simple bird bath. Before starting your project, consider factors such as available outdoor space, water supply, electricity supply, and whether children or pets will be nearby.
Why Add a DIY Water Feature?
Here are a few of the positive aspects to creating this project on your own:
It’s a great option if you’re limited on space and/or budget.
DIY water features are more eco-friendly than traditional fountains or ponds because they require less water.
Smaller water elements are a safer option than adding a pond or large fountain that children or pets can fall into.
There's far less maintenance to do for them than with a traditional pond or fountain.
You get the satisfaction of making it yourself and creating a cool and unusual outdoor space!
