Right now I am into Wind Chimes for my front porch-I check at the thrift stores and buy used ones and refinish them. I am also into small bird houses I buy new and used as i have a tree out front and on the side of the house and want to put bird houses in them.

Wind chimes I cannot stand and can live without them. My evil ex used to have wind chimes outside the kitchen window. When she left, I took them off and threw them away. I could not stand that noise. Bird houses I don't mind. They are nice for the birds.

What a nice craft Marcy. Wish I had the patience to do any of that.
Bet you find some nice ones where you are too.
Is that one of them?
I absolutely adore chimes too.
I want to get some for here, but cant right now.

Ocean, It takes me a long time because of my hands, I do some and then have to stop. Yes I have one just like the one shown. I do not buy any chimes that are loud as they drive me crazy. Most I buy at a thrift store in the next town over from where I live.

My sister in-law had some really big and bellowing ones on her porch back in Oklahoma and drove everyone crazy, even her. She finally took them down after a lot of complaints from her neighbors, you might want to rethink the ones you were wanting.

@Marcyaz I want these really cool chimes Marcy. They are huge and would sound like bellowing over the mountains in Tibet lolz
I am not sure if the neighbors would love them tho here.

You may want to place some bird feeders as well. I have a cute bird house or two. Must not forget to move them.

Windchimes are beautiful. I knit and crochet, and I am not the best, but I get by, and I have made3 baby layettes for new mothers, and they arevery appreciative/ I love working with yarn,but not in the summer, as it is just to itchy, so I will wait until fall,when it is cooler, so I don't get itchy.

Kevin, I also have some other projects for the future once these are completed. Last Christmas I found some wreaths at a thrift store that were just plain and I bought some small Christmas trinkets to put in the wreath and also some ribbon, the wreaths came out really nice.
