wrote in message ups.com... Thanks everyone. I really think I can do it. It's just like making a table top fountain on a larger scale, right? Regarding decorative tile, I don't need a lot of it and usually plain ceramic tile isn't all that expensive. I wish HGTV and the DIY Network had more programs specifically for doing these types of projects. There is pond newsgroup. The people there may be able to help. I love the shows on HGTV on how to landscape. They will tell you that you can build an elaborate garden complete with hardscape, water feature, and lighting for about $12 and it will only take two days. Then they bring in a crew of twenty laborers with shovels, a mason with helpers, an electrician, a landscape architect, a carpenter, and assorted equipment including a Bobcat, two backhoes, a dump truck, sod cutter, rototiller, wet saw, vibratory compactor, and a 18 inch augur. After a few shovels of dirt have been turned, you get a tour of a local garden center to select some pots or a fountain. When the show returns to the worksite, the entire project is ready for planting. The show goes to a commercial, and when it returns, the crew is sweeping the sidewalk and the clueless homeowner are given a tour of the garden where misinformation is dispensed about the plant material. |
