Many of those who dream of having a small waterfall in their dacha do not even realize how budget can be the implementation of the idea. The original decoration of the site will be imitation of a brick wall with constantly flowing into a row water. Curly colors will look at the brick wall effectively. At the same time, for the implementation of the idea, it is not necessary to spend much, because even bricks are not real here. The hardest in this project is slate, which means that the construction without problems can be deposited at the end of the season.
Materials and tools needed to implement the idea:
- 3-4 sheet thick foam
- A little cement
- Several metal pins
- Trimming pipes with adapter and plugs
- paint
- soldering iron
- Pump for aquarium
- Foam cutting knife
We make marking on the foam, it is from it that will be made brick walls.
Imitation of grooves between bricks is done using a soldering iron. Ideally, you need to read the line as soon as possible and without pressure, otherwise the grooves will be over-deep.
By making markup under 2 walls, in one of them cut the window opening.
Gently remove the top layer of foam to the top layer so that the texture ceases to be overly smooth.
We divorce cement to such a state so that it is convenient to use the brush and cover the foam walls. Optionally, you can add some PVA glue.
After drying, we connect the walls with each other and add to them the floor. Also apply to the floor, but already under the paving slabs.
Cut on 2 bricks a deaf wall. From the sides we make cutouts that imitate the ears. So brickwork will look more interesting.
From the residues of the foam, we cut several rails for the window frame and docile them with each other.
Go to the manufacture of tubs. Having made an approximate markup, cut the foam in such a way that it is convenient to make circles, the diameter of which will correspond to the external dimensions of the tub. Total will need 4 blanks.
Cut circles are stacked and equal as possible. Then connect them between themselves with pins or chopsticks for food. The connection is made with an indent from the edge of 5-7 cm.
Now you need to choose from 3 blanks of foam so that the resulting container of the rounded form.
The resulting personnel is covered with cement mortar and let it dry well. Then, we make a soldering iron in the case with a soldering iron and stain in the selected color. If desired, the tub is artificially constituted. We add chips, scuffs, imitate the crude.
On each of the walls we make a superstructure needed to lay slate. The lower part of the superstructure is a rectangle long in the entire wall and a width of about 30 cm, and the upper imitates the square bar of the same length. Details of the add-ons are attached to the walls using metal pins use for these purposes. Long nails can also be used for fastening polystyrene. In the superstructure, it is immediately necessary to make a water hole for the flow of water.
The collected design should be coated with a solution of cement and give it to dry completely.
Cut the old slate stripes. All will be needed on the 1st longitudinal strip of 1 wave for each wall and 2 transverse, width of 25-30 cm each.
We place on a high wall layout under water consisting of 2 pieces of pipe, supplemented by an adapter and plugs. In the pipes we do several holes.
We put slate by imitating the roof. On a larger wall, we place the pipe and connect it with the hose, and then cover it with a narrow strip. It is important that the water holes are turned towards the slope. On the low wall, Slate is placed on the same principle, with that difference that no lifting for water supply is not required here. Water will fall on the lower visor with the upper gravity.
The collected frame is staining under the brick. Do not forget to paint the window frame. For contrast, draw seams with white paint and add some sloe with green. Then it remains only to set down a tube, fill it with water, if desired, add algae and connect the mini-pump.
