Moving water catches sunlight and generates a soothing sound to make your outdoor space more relaxing.
Fountains make a great impression along a walkway, by a front entrance, or near a patio.
However, they require electricity, so select a spot near an outdoor outlet.
Learn how to make a water fountain from an urn using our instructions below.
Spread sand in the bottom.
Smooth sand with the back of a rake, then place the reservoir in the hole.
It should sit level, and the top should rest just at or slightly above ground level.
Fill reservoir two-thirds full of water.
Add sand around the outside of the reservoir, and water it in to make a snug fit.

Secure Reservoir and Grate
Arrange the cinder blocks in the reservoir to support the urn.
Attach a hose barb to the fitting, then clamp a rubber hose to the barb.
Thread hose through the hole in the grate and mesh and stand the urn up on the grate.
