Mornin Patti. I made clay water features back before they were sooooo popular.
The pottery studio sounds fantastic. I saw one at a friends last summer, less than 100 sq.ft. She was making tiles and garden edges for her gardens.
The edgers looked as tho they were low fired ,I cant emagine bringing every one in for the Maine winter. Maybe she wqas just decorating a small area.
My water features started small. A 18-20 inch pan with a tile top. The pieces were assembled upside down .I used pieces of lath glued together .The lath was laid out in a random pattern so all tiles were glued and a area in the middle was left open for the water to show. I used a small fishtank pump in those days to just gurgle.I am sure there are better pumps now.
The "Water Bowl" was set on the deck. I called these Garden Water Spots.
