New member of this tribe. I am home on disability and it might become permanent, so I'm collecting recipes for lemonade (since I was handed a bowl of lemons.) I thought it might be interesting to collect items from thrift stores and yard sales to make fountains. Just yesterday, I found a perfect, smallish, porcelain sink in a local thrift store for only a couple of bucks! Not sure what exactly my first fountain will look like, but I'll post a photo or two once (if? lol!) I get it finished.

Even if all you do is combine it with hypertufa and make sure you have some planting pockets with it you can get a really great grotto kind of effect with some small water trickling from a tea cup or some thing.
