Don't know where to buy the materials, what tools to use, and how to go about it.

make sure you find a weathered brick as it will work easier than a rock solid one.

Find something plastic or perspex kinda for the main bit, I guess if you're not filling it with fish & water that u could use a cardboard box, but I guess you will be. Don't forget a couple of ornamental things too just to add to it, and take a pic when its done

I built a fish tank once, and it still doesn't leak! All you need is silicone, which you can buy at a petstore (if you want it to be fish safe) or at a hardware store if no fish will be in the container. Then just cut the glass and glue. I had my glass cut, but there are home cutters if precision isn't a huge issue.
