Finally, finally, finally the water feature the dining area is completed... I hope. I had my buddies assemble the block, and stucco in the inside a couple weeks ago. But for months I had the block sitting in position. Originally I wanted to see if I liked the way it looked with the deconstructed industrial-ish screen, and I did. But there it sat. And friends would ask, "is that a coffin?". Great start to a project eh? A few days ago I at long last purchased the black waterproofing need to really finish the pond, and applied it according to the manufacturer's directions. I hope it works. At least tonight in the afternoon light it all looked so great. I can't wait to see the stars reflected in its surface.
It's nothing short of fabulous, and should you ever need to hide a body...
ReplyDeleteVery cool. Can you describe the construction process some more? Does it have any sort of filtration? Will it have fish? I miss my fish pond in NJ.
ReplyDeleteVisually, its fabulous, but...mosquito control? I'm sure you must have thought of that. From my pond experience, water proofing stuff gives mixed results. What stuff did you use?
ReplyDeleteDoesn't it have to have a pointy end to be a coffin? Or is that only cowboy movies?
HB, the mosquito fish do a fine job. the pond sealant is not perfect
ReplyDeleteKaveh,
ReplyDeleteit's just block with stucco lining. no filtration now but I may turn it into a fountain.
