Items Needed
- smartpond® Container Fountain Kit
- Planter
- Lantern
1. Assemble
After you carefully take out the kit's content, connect the extension tube to the pump with the desired nozzle. Position the pump in the planter with enough room to move the cord and add any extra décor as desired. After placing, run the cord over the side of the container.
2. Position
Gently position the pump in the planter and allow enough room to run the cord.
3. Place
Firmly place the fountain in the lantern and position the planter as you want it. Make sure the fountain is in the center of the lantern to balance it out. For the finishing touch and run the cord out, remove one of the panes of glass. If desired, you can drill a hole in the lantern to hide the cord from the display area. Just be sure to use a glass safe drill bit to not crack the glass.
4. Enjoy!
Flaunt the lantern in an outside green area or indoor space with bold colors where your DIY classic lantern will pop.
Sit back, relax, and enjoy your vintage lantern fountain!
