Tranquility Fountains: Projects for a Serene Lifestyle

Transport yourself to a babbling brook on a summer afternoon, listening to water flow over well-worn rocks or rush down the mountainside. Now imagine that same peace and serenity in your own home or office. You can re-create that wonderful tranquility by building, in a small space, almost any fountain you can imagine. Luxuriate in the faint, honeyed sound of water cascading down an agate slab onto softly worn stones below, or gurgling up through a tower filled with glass marbles...the rustic elegance of an Italian urn engulfed in moss...a sleek meditation table made from a round salt shaker. Add potted plants, fog, candles, light, or scent to create dazzling special effects that engage all the senses. Whether you construct one of the 29 projects here or fashion your own personal creation, your tabletop fountain will float you down a stream of relaxation, far away from the strains of everyday life.
