How to Build an Easy Water Fountain
How to Build an Easy Water Fountain
A quick and easy demonstration of a simple garden fountain. Adding a fountain to your garden helps attract birds, butterflies, beneficial insects, and even a few nocturnal animals looking for a drink. This garden fountain project is quick and easy to make and doesn’t cost much at all especially if you have a tub already.

Anybody from SWCSF?, I came here for the project 😛
Going to make one. Thank you!
Should you use regular water or distilled water? Thanks
Do I need to add anything to the water to keep it pristine?
Also, could this be typically moved indoors in the winter and placed among plants as a water feature? Sorry if that’s a dumb question. 🙂
Thank you! I made mine yesterday and what fun that was!
Wonderful Again. Your videos are awesome. Your voice has very pleasing effect and very peace. Love to view more videos of Your’s. Great of you.
Thank You Gardener Scott..💚👍🙂
Very nice video with the steps clearly and simply discussed. Thank you.
Now that’s the one I wanted thanks!!!
awesome! Now I want a solar powered version. I have no electrical hookup for the garden.
If this has already been answered, I apologize for duplicating. The pump doesn’t come with the tubing. Can you recommend – a link would be great! – tubing for this pump? Thanks!
Beautiful. 😊
Thanks! You showed me how easy this can be.
Hi Scott! Great video. Does the water renovate itself? How could I do fountain where the water renovate itself? Sorry, if the question is silly, I am pretty new in garden staff.
Could this be done with a soler-powered pump?…. I don’t have access to electricity where I would like to put it. Is there such a thing as a solar pump?!
Scott, your back yard is looking real good. And you have given Gail a project for our birdbath.
Thanks.
I want one!
Thank you so much for this simple tutorial! After talking about a birdbath fountain forever, I followed your directions and had it done in 3 hours – including going to the hardware store for all the parts! Finches were in the water within 15 minutes. Amazing…
Ten bucks my arse. 😂
can’t find the link, can you show it to me here for the pump
Great idea & great to see you Scott. We are enjoying our bird bath in our back yard. Have enjoyed watching this video & to see the little robin enjoying your invention is pleasing.
You have an awesome channel!
Perfect idea for my simple space..
Hi Scott! What size bucket is this? The Amazon link no longer works
Nicely done! Easy video for anyone who wants a fountain. 👍
Love your quietly and handsome demeanor 🥰
Hi Scott,
Thanks for the post, I’m building 2 in my yard. Can you recommend lighting.? Thx
you are so nice and honestly this video was so relaxing to watch can’t wait for more!!!
What a fun project. Can’t wait to start on my birdbath/fountain! Thanks again 🙂
Love the simplicity and its bird friendliness. Thanks!
Thanks for the inspiration, Scott!! Wondering if the pot has to be galvanized or would it work with a large ceramic pot?
You’ve inspired me to try this by making it look so easy! Thank you
I’m planning on doing this project within the next week or 2. The links seem to be outdated, wondered if you could refresh the Amazon links? Thanks! Wonderful project.
