Our water feature fountain has been through not one but two revamps! In a previous video you may have seen it painted a light grey colour, but to use and from the comments received in that video, it was apparant that it just looked white and we both agreed we just did not like it. So we ordered some more spray paint, this time in a terracotta colour, and now we both absolutely love it.
So now that we are both finally happy with our new water feature fountain, here is Richard putting it all back together and reinstalling it. I hope you will agree that it now looks really lovely.

Hi there everyone, it's Jeanette here from Enthusiastic Gardener
and you can see I have two cups of teas and whenever I have two cups of tea
invariably means that I'm asking Richard to help with a garden
project which is what we're doing today.
Right, today my task is to reinstall the water feature.
As you can see it's a different colour now.
Yeah the first colour, it was a bit, it was a gloss finish for a start
but also it was very light. And once people kept saying
your white fountain, it looks like it should be in a bathroom which made us
both laugh. So I decided on the terracotta colour.
Yes. Because it's a more natural, more natural colour, a colour you
expect to see in the garden. And we've got so much grey haven't we,
we've got grey all around, everything's grey.
Everything's grey, my hair, Jeanette's hair.
So now, that's the position, now it's vital to make sure it's level
otherwise when the fountain's on it's not going to be running
evenly around the top. Yeah. So that is my next task. Okay.
That's the position, we've actually agreed on it.
And that's it, the hard work begins. That's approximately levelish, I can
level it, just do a final level up. Now I want to get all the cables settled.
So this thread through, you can see there's a lot of cable.
So that has got to sit in there.
It's got suckers on, why I do not know. So that's going in there, and now we've
got an abundance of cable. Right, let's put a cable tie around,
because we don't need all this. And that one will sit in there, out the way.
And yeah, that's enough.
Right, you ready? Yes. Excellent. Superb. Beautiful.
Well done. Fabulous. And we'll see the benefit in the evening with the lights on.
Yes. There's a couple of marks on there. It doesn't matter.
I will catch it up at some point. But the main thing is now, the fountain's
petunia. It's mostly been Richard today. I'm Richard, the
unenthusiastic gardener. You are enthusiastic. Richard loves the garden
as much as I do. Look at that little baby snout.
The slugs are beginning to move in. Look, right there, there's a very tiny little
snout. They don't take long in this garden, they love this garden.
But I'm sure the slugs will be very happy in their newly refurbished
fountain. And thank you Richard very much.
Take care everyone, and have fun in your gardens. Thank you for watching.
Bye.
