Fountain with Looking Glass

Written by: Siobhan of Legends

Items needed:

  • 1 Abbatoir
  • 1 Statue (as shown)
  • 1 Pet Ball (or any crystal ball graphic)
  • 7 Cotton – dyed light blue
  • 4 Empty Bowls (pewter)
  • Plain Snowdrops
  • Plain Campion Flowers
  • Rock (optional)

Deco tool is required

Plant colors and numbers can be altered for preference

The first, and easiest step is to place your abbatoir.
Remember, the center is where the center of the fountain will
be.

Place the Pet Ball in the NW corner of the abbatoir and the
statue center. Lock them both down. Raise the statue until
it cannot be raised anymore.R aise the pet ball until it appears
as if it is being held by the statue.

Next, place 1 cotton down center and secure it. Raise it
to the base of the statue. This should be approximately 10
raises.

Place a pewter bowl on the same tile as the statue (center)
and raise it to the bottom of the cotton, which is approximately
9 times.

 

Now, place a stack of 2 cotton down and secure it. Raise
it to the bottom of the bowl you just placed. Follow it with
a bowl, and repeating the cotton and bowl until you have a
nice center fountain piece.

As you can see by the image, I have used 3 bowls and 5 cotton
total for my center piece.

The next step is purely aesthetical. Add your plants/rocks
to the base of the fountain, making sure to raise and lower
them to give it a nice round affect. You can use more rocks
than plants or vice versa.

This is purely up to the decorator. I am using plain campion
and plain snowdrop plants to finish the base of my fountain
along with some daily spawn rocks (the ones shown in the items
needed image)

If you wish to get a bit more elaborate, you
can add vines to the design!

Use the vines that come with 3 prongs for a corner (not a
flat wall piece).

You may also use Doom stealable rocks as well to create a
nice round effect for this fountain.
