Annonce:
This is a project that is every gardener’s and landscaper’s dream. According to The Garden Glove, this entire project — building your own garden pond — only costs $30. The end result is a sight you must see (Scroll down for final pictures).
While traditional garden ponds require fancy pond liners and more extensive planning, this garden pond DIY keeps things simple and easy.
Here’s the supplies required for this project:
— Rubbermaid storage container that keeps water in
— Fountain pump (or a solar-powered pump)
— A couple of concrete pavers (varies based on container size)
— Rocks and stones of varying sizes (based on your design preference)
— Plant tolerant of water (e.g. water grass)

1. Secure the best location for your garden pond

Consider a spot that has good sunlight and enough space for your storage container. Garden Glove recommends, “Decide where to place your water feature. If you don’t have power nearby, consider a solar powered fountain pump. This Old House warns to mark electric and gas lines and make sure to steer clear of them.

2. Add rocks

The rocks anchor the pump in place.

3. Place the pavers down
