You'll need:
* A hula hoop (I found mine at a yard sale)
* A fountain pump (found mine at a thrift store but this link goes to Amazon for a similar one)
* 3 different sized planters (found them next to a dumpster!)
* Spray paint - I'm using Rust-Oleum's 2X Paint and Primer in Stone Gray and Hammered Copper
* Drop cloth
* Drill with bits for screws and pilot holes
* Epoxy putty
* A hose clamp
* Two hole pipe straps
* A marker
* Items to support upper tier planters - I'm using random things from my garage that will fit inside the planters - a bucket, a terra cotta planter, and a landscaping brick.
Have a question about this project?
can you post pictures of the finished product? I’m assuming it’s in the garden? Did you make holes in the hula hoop for water to drizzle out or does go upwards from pots?
The first picture is the finished product. Water drizzles out of the pipe (hoop) and drops into the small planter. It then spills over into the second planter then into the planter with the pump. Then repeats. The top 2 planters need to be full of water at the beginning.
Do you have to plug in the water pump?
Is this supposed to be a half-done project, to be continued, just like a lot of my projects ?
