How To DIY Backyard Stream and Pond

[@RoyThe4th]

Thank you so much I was getting ready to spend $1100 on a pond liner, cheers to 1/3 of the cost

[@jamesholloman8501]

What a small world this KZbin creation is. There I was looking for ideas for an outside pond & stream, video after video...not even looking at the names anymore... and this one pops up. I learned so much on other topics from you, MHPGardener, WebCajun, Navajopa31, and others. With all the losses over the last few years (including the later two), I am glad as hell to see you two still at it, educating folks around the world!

[@dandan8333]

Amazing when you're the same page, what two people can accomplish! Beautiful and therapeutic for an enriched life together!

[@imstillworkin]

That is so true. Just look at the difference between the pond Bobby and I did together and the one I did alone. That's all I'm going to say...

Hi you two, this is an amazing pond... omg I am jealous... you did a professional job I think... go big on this pond.. love all the flowers and plants so pretty..

[@imstillworkin]

Thank you, I wish I had your expertise with flowers. I think that trying to figure out how to landscape it has been the hardest part.

[@chelinfusco6403]

Wow! Beautiful, and the landscaping is breath taking too. I noticed the frog when you were showing the fountain, but I wasn't sure if it was real. The frog whisperer and you did a fantastic job. My muscles are sore from watching this. Hahaha, but what an awesome view.

[@imstillworkin]

Before we built the pond and stream we rarely saw a frog around here. The minute we built it, frogs came out of nowhere. Pretty much at any given time you can spot about 10 of them lounging around on the rocks, on lily pads, in the waterfalls. Me and the frog whisperer get a kick out of watching them.

[@chelinfusco6403]

@@imstillworkin Haha, aw they are great. No mosquitoes infestation that's for sure.

[@chelinfusco6403]

[@LiveAboard]

The sound of rushing water is so relaxing and watching the fish is so calming. You have created the perfect oasis. Welcome back, I've missed your videos. You always help!

[@imstillworkin]

Thank you, we're so used to hearing the water that it's kind of depressing when we have the pumps shut off. Kind of like how a house seems lifeless with no electricity. We really do enjoy and use this part of the property. One of our favorite things to do is eat breakfast in the gazebo. Such a treat to be surrounded by the sound of water, birds chirping and flowers in bloom. Not to mention a good cup of coffee, LOL.

[@movinon04]

what a lovly pond- and so much work to get it done-- and nice talent Bobby has as the frog whisperer--lol--- blessings...Glo

[@imstillworkin]

Thank you, you wouldn't believe how quickly the pond came together. I think it took us about 3 weeks. We were amazed at how fast the backyard was transformed into what you see there. I'm sooooo lucky to have the frog whisperer.

The frog whisperer at the end 😂 awesome video..great work

Honestly this was the best video I've seen. It's very instructional where if your a Donkey like me, I can understand everything also the biggest thing is that liner. Man oh mang, talk about saving dough, ray, me, faso, latty, Dough! Forgetaboutit. Thank you and God Bless You and everyone else.

[@JEMCC]

This was just fantastic ... ! I love your commentary and explanation of mistakes made and how you corrected them. Great job!

[@mikegerics-em5ih]

best 'how to build a stream and pond' video i've seen. thank you.

[@kllrjess]

This is SO fantastic! I watch a lot of pain building videos, usually done by professionals, and they are expensive and intricate and everything that I could never aspire to do. I absolutely love that you were able to accomplish something so beautiful with only your own Ingenuity, a reasonable amount of money in materials, and hard work. The result is gorgeous and I hope you are not only extremely proud of what you've created, but enjoy every moment of it! Thank you, thank you so much for sharing with us!

[@quilterinthewoods62]

Beautiful! I dont think I could take on anything like this. Great Job!

Thank you, it's actually a simple project, it just takes a strong back to pull it off.

[@19brandon66]

Outstanding job! It's beautiful. Also, you do such a great job with your narrations on your videos. You guys rock...

[@imstillworkin]

Thank you, I always feel like I'm not making a bit of sense when I'm narrating these videos. This one was especially difficult to do, thank goodness for that blue arrow, LOL.

[@TheCajuntransplant]

Hearing your voice is like listening to my favorite music. I love that little paradise you and Bobby have built. Having a partner who works in harmony with you can make a beautiful and fulfilling life. Love ya girl!!!

[@imstillworkin]

Thank you, I told Bobby yesterday that one of the things I loved about him was the fact that when I mention a flower or a tree around here, he knows exactly which one I'm talking about. It is so nice to have a partner that is interested in the same things that I am.

[@mindypatriotangel6064]

It's absolutely beautiful!

[@imstillworkin]

Thank you!

[@willfriesen1238]

What perfect timing! I've followed you for years and learned much from your videos. I was looking for videos on this very topic last evening and was frustrated with what I was (and was not) finding. I appreciate your no nonsense, genuine advice!

[@imstillworkin]

I feel your pain. I watched a whole lot of videos when we were planning this project and I didn't find anything close to what I was looking for. That really stings when you are in the country and paying through the nose for the amount of bandwidth you are using. I vowed to make the video I wanted to see and here it is. It took a while but I finally got around to it.

[@JesusIsKing50]

Great video. Loved the communication with the frog at the end 😂😂😂

[@theresabollman8061]

@@imstillworkin Thank You, Darlin'. I am always checking your pages to see if anything you guys put up has not come through my daily feed. I have NO intention of missing a single one of your videos, ever! I thought maybe you took a well-deserved vacation or break. This project was fabulous, as usual! IMHO your version was even more beautiful than your "inspiration". Those river rocks you used gave a magical effect, and the nuances you added with twists, turns, flowers & all things natural made for a breathtaking scene. You two are so talented...it's just unbelievable! Neither of you is afraid of a lot of hard work, either (Smile). I'm in the process of relocating to senior housing which will finally afford me the safety shower situation I need to keep safe & allow for more regular hydro-therapy to help w/ mobility. I'll miss this beautiful apartment which was so reminiscent of the beautiful home I had to leave behind, after my husband, Lee died. But it's more important to be safe than sorry. Please keep taking care of yourselves...I'm glad you have each other to snuggle down with. My favorite "Two Peas in a pod" ! xoxo T

Wow you guys has given me such a wonderful idea I didn't know how I wanted to do my pond but I am going to do it well I live in a subtropical area but instead of a lot of flowers I'm going to substitute storms with palm trees and cacti I will show that on KZbin when I am done with it is going to be beautiful I have a lot of mountains on my property and it will look so well with the mountains running through my property

You wouldn't believe how many botanical gardens we've been to. The one with the stream was probably the smallest garden we've seen and it was the most fascinating of all of them. It's in Wilson, North Carolina if any one is interested in seeing it for themselves.

I also have ducks and I would like to have a nice big pond for them. my problem is the duck Poo. Seems nearly impossible to keep clean LOL from other videos i have watched. I wonder if the moving water of the stream would help, hmmmm. Something to think about. I absolutely love that stream you have and the waterfalls going to the big pond, thank you

We've been to Longwood twice and it was there that Bobby fell in love with the concept of adding water features to the backyard. I told him a few days ago that when this coronavirus thing is over we need to go back to Longwood to see their new fountains. They were under construction the last time we were there. It's sad to think that those gardens are closed right now.

🎉 for you and bobby on this beautiful build. I would have thought you paid several thousand to have this I stalled. I greatly appreciate your true take on the budget conscience and being truthful. I too built my first little pond with similar materials right before these blew up all over the place and prices went crazy for materials and similar products. I am curious what pump you have pushing the water back up to the first waterfall and what size pipe you use to send it through as well of u had to buy extra fittings or glue to attach all of it. I have a simple pond and waterfall and looking to create a stream. I am definitely still a beginner. Thanks so much in advance and honestly you've got the best video I've watched for us "regular folks" with "budgets" who are trying to build a lil DIY stream! 😊
