Try this inexpensive DIY indoor water fountain project that's easy to make. A small tabletop fountain adds a nice water element to your home.
Yield: 1
Equipment
Materials
- Watertight bowl
- Small fountain pump - This one is super cheap but it works.
- Decorative Rocks - crafts stores and the dollar store
- Remote control outlet switch optional
Instructions
- Place the pump, especially the nozzle where you want the water to flow. I have mine off to the side but I think it would also look good in the middle.
- Arrange the decorative rocks all around the bowl. Stack them up around the pump and cord to hide them from view.
- Add water to just cover the rocks. You need enough water to fill the pump; if it is a submersible pump it can even cover the pump.
- Then plug in the water fountain and enjoy it.

Notes
Some pumps have a dial that lets you control the water flow. You can also consider purchasing a remote control outlet switch instead of unplugging and plugging the fountain in each time you want to run it.
