Having Fun With Windchimes
17 November 2008 dans patio
There are many different ways you can enjoy windchimes. Most folks think of the most common way of hanging them on the front porch. And to this day that is still the
favorite way to hang and then enjoy your chimes. Of course unless you hang them on the back porch, or the side porch, or I guess your getting the idea about the porch. I
have a friend that hung a small chime on her back door so when her family and friends dropped in she had a small warning before they walked into the room and said HELLO!
You can also hang them in front of a window, on the inside of the house so when the breeze blows through you can also enjoy the tinkling. Using the same theory, place
them in front of a fan, or the air conditioner so you have soft music to go along with the nice breeze. Hang them outside in your gazebo and as you sit with your ice tea you
can enjoy them. Another idea is in a tree. Place a few lawn chairs out in your yard by your windchimes and there’s a great place to stop and have your lemonade!
Windchimes come in as many different styles, with as many different musical tones as stars in the sky! So anywhere you want to put them, no matter what your sense of
style is if you look hard enough you will find windchimes to brighten up your day! Have you noticed the many different types of sounds windchimes can produce? There are the
ones made out of wood. They have a more mellow sound, a more primitive sounding windchime. They used to make homemade ones with silverware. They would use spoons,
knives and forks, and the specific number of each was up to the one who made the chime. These have a heavier metallic ring to them. I guess the thing with windchimes is to
discover what you like and then have fun with it!
