        It was so easy and cheap! Everything came from the dollar tree except the water table I already had.

            I recently made this water wall. My favorite part is on the top right where the two smaller containers are. One has blue water in it and the other has yellow, the tubes bring the water down to the container underneath and make green.

              I love it! What did you use besides the pool noodles? And how did you hook them to the fence?

                I used pool noodles, whole and cut up and I used disposable water bottles with their bottoms cut off and noise maker plastic tubes from the Dollar Tree. I secured them with zip ties.

                  How cool!

                  I have always wanted to do something similar with PVC pipe but have cement block walls. Any idea how I could attach them to the walls?

                      Maybe some sort of adhesive that sticks to cement? Or maybe do it free standing with a pvc pipe stand?

                        That's cool! Did you have to drill holes in your fencing? I have fencing similar to yours and have wanted to do something like this for awhile now.
                        A trip to the Dollar Tree was on my to-do list for this weekend anyways!
                        ETA: Never mind. I see the chain link fence after enlarging the picture. I just have the wooden type.

                        Nanglgrl, love yours too!

                          Is it pool noodles and soda bottles? I'm on my iPad and enlarging blurs it a bit! Awesome!
