Floating Water Lily for Pond Decoration

I have a little container pond with fish in it, and I wanted something to decorate it and give the fish some shade in the summer. Real water plants are great, but honestly, I’m not the best at keeping them alive. So I designed this 3D printed water lily from scratch!

It’s a simple, fun sculpture that adds a nice touch to any pond, fish tank, or even a bowl of water on your patio. It prints easily, floats well, and looks super cute in the sunlight. Great as a decoration or just something fun to make.

I printed mine using PLA, and it’s holding up well so far. However, I’m not sure how it will fare outdoors in the long run. It may last longer than my real water plants. For better durability, I’d suggest printing it in PETG.
