How Do You Make A Fountain Out Of A Wine Barrel?

Water features create an ambient “white noise” that effectively blocks and filters out annoying neighborhood noises and traffic.

In addition, fountains and small ponds like barrel ponds attract birds and butterflies, further adding to your yard’s appeal. Find an appropriate location for the barrel fountain.
