It is nice to have the best place to get away; a Zen garden space. It is because the water features will make you feel comfortable to refresh your mind. Whether you love reading the book there or not, it is possible to create DIY water features. What you will need are simple things such as basins, empty pots, and more river rocks. It is hard to deny that water features can be soothing oasis because of the relaxing sounds. Also, the decorative look makes your patio or indoor feels cozier.

So, what can you do to make water features? Well, the first thing to try is a simple fountain. You can create this fountain for a simple bubbler. You may need two textured pots, a pump, gravel, tubing, and others. Make sure that the textured pots are in a set.

Next, it is also possible to create an unusual water feature. This is what you need especially if you want to repurpose an old framed window. To start, place the windowpane at the top. After that, add a perforated tube. It will create a falling water effect that will also add more fun to your outdoor or indoor space. This is also interesting for kids and all ages to enjoy the falling water. If possible, make it more beautiful by installing uplights at the bottom. This is what you need to illuminate it at night.

Last but not least is that you can try something different. For example, it looks great when you can create a simple fountain just like what you can find in the Japanese backyard. It means that you can use bamboos and a ceramic basin with gravel. Make it more peaceful by placing the fountain close to a matching ceramic. The fountain looks peaceful when you add it to the interesting spot where family and friends can gather.
