Add some wind chimes to your backyard or garden and bring some soothing sounds into your natural environment with this DIY Ceramic Copper Wind Chimes from Poppy Talk. I can’t get over how pretty and classy it looks. And lately I’ve been seeing so much gorgeous pottery popping up in sweet shops, making appearances in Instagram pictures, and gracing the homes of some inspiring folks.

3. Shabby Chic Chandelier Wind Chime
Faux pearl strands, twine, and a variety of antique keys make an incredible rustic, yet elegant wind chime. This chime will probably be much quieter than other projects, but will sway in the breeze just beautifully. Use an embroidery hoop to create the top of the chime. This is an incredibly easy project that shouldn’t take you more than a few hours.
4. Beautiful Beaded Wind Chime
Beaded wind chime. Isn’t this pretty? Look at the lovely beads! Add an ounce of sparkle to the garden with this beautiful beaded wind chime. What a perfect excuse to get out my bead supply and make something I’ll enjoy seeing out my window every day. Now, where to look for a driftwood because I can’t wait to try this out.
5. Seashore Wind Chimes
This is a fabulous idea especially if you live near the sea. I’m not particularly handy, but I do have lots of seashells collected over a lifetime so I can probably try making this to invite positive energy into the house. I’m hoping that the soft clinking sound will attract hummingbirds too. Because, yes, it’s migration time again.
6. Steampunk Wind Chimes
The keys and charms on this Steampunk Wind Chime make a beautiful and delicate chime, not too loud and just perfect for adding ambiance to an otherwise delightful spring day. Let your history and your interest sparkle in the sun in delightfully steampunky fashion, and welcome spring your way.
7. Mason Jar Chimes
Mason jar crafts are incredibly popular, and for good reason. This chime utilizes old pieces of costume jewelry and a mason jar cut in half. This project is a little more difficult and time consuming, as you’ll need to cut and sand the edge of the mason jar in addition to adding small holes to hang your chimes from. You can check out the complete tutorial from Saved By Love Creations.
9. Driftwood Wind Chime
Wow, look at how gorgeous this project turned out! If you’re thinking of adding some embellishments to your outdoor space, then, this Driftwood wind chime from Twin Dragon fly Designs is sure to be right up your alley. It is super easy to create, you probably already have all the materials in your house. So, scrounge up your beads and twine and get started on this awesome DIY.
