Turn An Old Tire Into A Beautiful Backyard Pond

This project is amazing. Not only does this DIY project from homesthetics clean up the area by putting some old tires to good use, but it actually beautifies the landscape and creates a tranquil, relaxing spot to kick back and just enjoy life.  It’ll attract birds while you upcycle something that won’t recycle into the environment otherwise. A win-win!


Grab an old tire. (They used multiple tires in this example because they installed a few and made a little water garden area.) Tractor tires are nice for larger ponds, or a car tire will work just fine for a smaller pond. Then find a nice spot in your back yard where you’d like to enjoy your pond.
