Add an Asian touch to a water feature with a bamboo waterspout. Use your creativity to fashion a fountain, then set it in a bowl with river rocks to give it a calming, authentic feel. Run tubing through the bamboo and hook it up to a new or existing pump.

Tip: Clean your bamboo with a mild detergent, and then coat it with a 50:50 solution of linseed oil and paint thinner. If black spots from mold appear, wipe them off with diluted bleach.
