Create waterfall feature in your backyard

Step 4 Start digging!

Here was the fun part, if you recall from the previous step I alluded to the pails being a reservoir for the waterfall. In order for the waterfall to drain into the pails they have to be below the highest point of the waterfall, Like a drain in a sink you want to make sure everything flows towards the pails. The best way to ensure this is to dig a hole to accommodate these pails. We used three pails but the more pails you use the larger the reservoir you will have. This will make sense in the coming steps, in the meantime grab a shovel and start digging at the point you wish to have the water pool when your waterfall is completed.
