Hello, crafters :) In this tutorial, you will see how to make a cement water fountain at home. It’s a fantastic craft idea from cement for your home and garden decoration. It’s an amazing DIY idea with cement and thermocol you can make at home! To make this concrete waterfall fountain I use mainly cement, sand and styrofoam. This handcrafted rainfall fountain can be used as an indoor-outdoor aquarium. For water circulation, I used a submersible water pump. It’s fun to make and you can use it as an awesome decoration.

NOTES :
1- Use a SAFETY MASK during cutting the Styrofoam with Soldering Iron or work in a ventilated space.
2- I drilled holes (diameter 3mm) at the PVC Pipe each 1 cm distance.
3- Make an epoxy resin coating for the fountain basin.. it is effective to prevent leakages.
