I wanted to make something made of transparent filament that I could make glowing with LED lights, and so I decided to 3D print some crystals - but I couldn't just have those alone, which is why I ended up making this DIY indoor desktop fountain with a waterfall and overgrown by moss! I haven't done anything this similar to miniature landscaping before, but I had a lot of fun doing it!
