15 Minute Birdbath Fountain Refresh

Happy Monday, Friends! It's been a minute since my last 15 minute fix, and today I'm sharing how to quickly clean up and refresh a grimy birdbath fountain so you (and the birds!) can enjoy it through the summer months

Whether you have a birdbath, fountain, or a combo like mine, you can follow these easy steps for a simple seasonal refresh. Start by cleaning it thoroughly to remove any dirt or grime. Next, add a few coats of outdoor craft paint to brighten the interior of the birdbath. Last, fill with water before replacing the solar fountain pump.

TIP: Add a few pennies to the water--the copper will naturally prevent algae or scum.
