I’ve seen a lot of posts and shows lately about people getting companies to transform pools into gorgeous ponds like these, but here you can learn how to make this natural transformation yourself… and save a lot of money doing so.

Apart from the breathtaking visual impact and the serene sense of nature, this type of pool has a lot of other benefits:

A pool in 2 parts: the deeper swimming zone, and the shallower surrounding plant zone
No chlorine or other chemicals in the water – the plants and animals filter and oxygenate the water naturally, thus keeping it clean and clear
A solar-powered circulation system (this should also keep the mosquitoes at bay)
An animal-friendly pool filter built from scrap materials
