Backyard Upgrade

3 Materials
Had a new septic system done & we had some sinking where the old one was so we decided to make it a pond! We didn't want to spend a lot of money so most products were things we already had
The start. Used some flagstone & rocks we had from an old garden.
1st we bought a bridge to place over the hole
Had to dig down to 2 1/2 feet for fish
This is an old bench that my dad got me years ago I didn't want to get rid of
Sitting area across the bridge. Spoofed up the bridge with some lights & sanded & painted the bench
Fountain with some plants & greenery
My aunt gave us some more flagstone added another path.
Put in a waterfall, Its also a filter
View from the other side we love our solar lights!
Sorry its blurry had to take it from the window to get the whole picture
Enjoyed the project?

- Wooden bridge (Amazon)
- Plants & waterfall (Home Depot)
