This DIY Fountain was one of the easiest DIY outdoor projects I’ve done. Here in the PNW, we only have about 4 months if we’re lucky to enjoy outdoor living. But once we’re outside, I want it to be inviting.
As one of the Lowe’s Creators & Influencers, this DIY Fountain water feature was my project for our outdoor fun challenge a few years ago. I had been wanting to make my own garden fountain for a while, as well as my DIY Tabletop Fire Bowl.
DIY Fountain Water Feature
This simple DIY fountain was easy to make and I’ve learned a few tips to make it even better year after year.

- Ceramic sphere that is pre-drilled- I found mine at a local nursery for $5! I asked my nursery where they got them or if they’re getting more and they said they couldn’t remember and no they weren’t getting more. I did find this blogger who made her own. See her garden fountain here.
- Fountain tube and pump – Found at Lowes.
- Bowl– I plugged the hole in this ceramic bowl, also found at my local nursery.
- Pea Gravel
- Water
How to Make a Water Fountain
I’ve been wanting to complete this fountain since I bought the bright blue egg and fountain bowl from my local nursery here in Camas Washington. I bought the pump at Lowe’s and some pea gravel. This was SO simple to make.
- I threaded the pump tube through the bottom hole and positioned into the top hole of the blue egg. The pump will just sit on the bottom once the sphere is placed in the bowl. The tube is reaching up and into the ceramic sphere hole at the top.
- I placed my egg in my bowl.
- Before placing the pea gravel in the bowl, you may want to rinse it using a large colander. I didn’t rinse, resulting in murky looking water, as you can see in the photos. I had to drain the water and refill a couple of times before I had clear water.
- Fill the bowl, around the sphere with pea gravel and water.
- Plug it in and wait for it to bubble up.
IMPORTANT TIP: Rinse the gravel before using. Otherwise, your water will be murky.
This DIY water feature took me about 15 minutes! I can now enjoy the soft sound of water, as well as enjoy my beautiful blue egg.
Many home supply stores will carry DIY garden fountain kits, making it simple and easy!

July 29, 2012 at 8:57 pmHaving a blast this summer with 3 of our 7 grandchildren. Have the 3 two days a week going to beach,waterparks,fishing,and plain homegrown slip n slides. Took older of the three up the Ca. coast from our house up to San Fransisco a fun 6 day trip and got out of the heat where we live it was 101 at home and 57 in Frisco. Loved touring the coast with them.
Sue says
July 29, 2012 at 9:14 pmI have been signed up to the Lowe’s Creative Ideas Magazine for a number of years and they have some nifty projects.
I just picked up some paint samples yesterday for my bedroom. I want to see how they look during the day before I decide which color is the best choice. If I won, I would be able to buy the paint, tape and brushes with the gift card. That would be just perfect timing, wouldn’t it? I also want to paint the blades on my ceiling fan. I love, love, love my fan and wouldn’t take it down for anything. The rug needs to be replaced too, but that would be for another time.
Sue says
July 29, 2012 at 9:16 pmForgot to mention that I am being very productive this summer working on projects inside and outside my home. However, I have to pencil in some lazy beach days and I hope to go and visit my son and his wife before school begins.

Not to mention what seems like an endless supply of birthday parties, weddings, , baby showers and housewarmings to attend. None the less, it wouldn’t be summer without those things!

Even my 3 three year old little boy gets excited when we pull in the parking lot of our local Lowes Store….he knows the store from front to back and they know us so well that they will let him sit in the little forklift because he is all about construction equipment :o)
This summer we have been working on making our house a home and spending time doing projects together as a family. My elderly father just moved in with us after having a stroke and with the gift card we could purchase the items needed to make getting around the house a little easier for him with his physical disabilities.
Thanks!

We’re planning to use it as an office so we’ve installed drywall and flooring. The Lowe’s gift card would come in so handy to make our new shed/office comfy cozy!

August 1, 2012 at 2:35 amGood to know about washing the pea gravel first, I wouldn’t have thought of that either. Your fountain is beautiful and something I’ve been wanting to do for a long time. You’ve inspired me! I already get the Lowes magazine and love it.
My summer fun has been having parties in my Outdoor Kitchen. My husband is always inviting people over to cook for them and hang out at the bar. We’ve had lots of great times out there!

August 6, 2012 at 7:45 pmI love the sound of flowing water…always have.
I would use a Lowe’s card to purchase paint to repaint our master bedroom. We’ve lived in our house 7 years and I have been feeling the urge to change the colors in our bedroom lately. I’d also update the light fixture. It’s time for something new…..
