How Do You Create A Clay Pot Fountain?
For a calming outdoor treat, make your own spa-like sanctuary with little effort. Add an elegant water feature to your garden, porch or deck with this craft project. Use a large clay flower pot and a few inexpensive supplies to create this water fountain in about an hour. Check your local garden supply store for a large clay flower pot, 16 to 20 inches in diameter and approximately 12 inches high. Select a pot that is sealed inside with a glaze, which reduces the likelihood of leaks or future cracks. Choose a color that compliments your outdoor room. Purchase an electric fountain kit. This is the easiest, most inexpensive way to get the supplies you’ll need to create your project. If you purchase pieces individually, you need an electric submersible water pump (150 to 200 gallons per hour), foam filter and a fountain spout. Choose a level spot to set up your fountain, either on a deck/porch or in a garden (as long as it is close enough to a power supply). Plug drainage hole in the pot
