Lady fills a galvanized tub with rocks and floating lights. Everyone on my street keeps asking about this porch hack
Place the galvanized metal tub in your desired location on the porch.
Fill the tub with water, leaving a few inches from the top.
Arrange the smooth river rocks at the bottom of the tub, spreading them evenly.
Place the artificial lily pads on the water surface, distributing them around the tub.
Turn on the floating LED tea light candles and gently place them on the water, ensuring they are spaced out for an even distribution of light.
Variations & Tips
For a personalized touch, consider incorporating colored glass pebbles or marbles among the river rocks for a pop of color. You can also experiment with different types of floating candles, such as those with scented wax, to add an aromatic element to your outdoor space. If you want to create a more natural look, opt for real aquatic plants instead of artificial lily pads. To enhance the ambiance further, surround the tub with small lanterns or solar-powered lights that complement the pond's glow.
