My hubby says that our neighbors must hate me....I have about 12 windchimes chiming,jingling and clanging in the back yard.
Today I went to Hobby Lobby and would you believe they had their chimes on for 1/2 price?? Picked up 2 more and 1 for my girlfriend that recently broke he leg.
Today it is so windy that those things are blowing and sound wonderful!!!
Anyone else like windchimes???

I can't see how anyone could posibly hate you because of your wind chimes - the more the merrier I say!!! They sound wonderful out in the open air.

I too love them but my hubby says they would keep him up at night special with the window open (they hang rite there). I don't like the windows open I tell him but I do  so this way I get them both  . Slowly threw the years I've added more and they don't bother him anymore. Mygirlfriday do you have pic's? I've made some and the others are from the dollar store. Can't do without those dollar stores.

I love windchimes too. Over the winter I take them all inside as the weather would just be too hard on them. The weather has been gorgeous all weekend so I've had great fun putting out a lot of my chimes and other garden decorations.

I love windchimes too. But I tend to leave them out and the winter is really hard on them. Saw one at the garden center today called the "big ben" chime, and sure enough, it rang with the first four notes of a big-ben type chyming clock. Lovely sound. There's nearly always a breeze here, and they keep the silence from getting too thick when I'm here alone during the day.
