Everything You Need To Create Your Own Tabletop Fountain

• You need a container to house the fountain. This could be a ceramic bowl, a pan enveloped by Styrofoam, or a terracotta pot. Whatever it is, it needs to be watertight.
• You need a small submersible pump to circulate the water.
• You need a spout to deliver the water. This could be carefully hidden tubing. Or the spout itself could be part of the fountain’s design.
• You need a device to conceal the pump. This can be as simple as a plastic container placed upside down with openings to allow for the tubing access and water return.
• You need decorative items for your tabletop fountain. These can include rocks, plant life and fish.
• You need a small copper elbow to direct water downward.
• Finally, you need water. Distilled water is better than tap water for keeping your fountain free of spots caused by mineral deposits.
