Here are a few pictures of a waterfall , small water pond ,wishing well and planter box that i made from 8 yr old reclaimed fence boards.
the first picture is going to be a 4 ft water pond with a small water spout in the center. it will be lined with rubber.

this picture is of a 5 ft planter box .i found and old antique in the barn and thought it looked good with the box.

the next picture is of a 6 ft waterfall .also will be lined with rubber.

the last picture is a 7 ft wishing well with a planter box built in.


Everything above are all made from what used to be someones fence.

Thanks again. i found the sunburst at a store here called Canadian Tire. they were selling them for $20.00. of course a month later i see them on sale for $11.00 it just happened to fit perfectly in the space between the trim. it really sets it off nicely
