Small Teapot

Hello everyone. Today I made a chime from a small teapot , note the size of the teapot in comparison to the pickle forks. This teapot might hold one cup of liquid. The wind catcher is the bottom of a candle stick. It never ceases to amaze me that you can find a seemingly endless amount of cool stuff if you are willing to dig a little.

Mini Chime

Hey folks. Today I have for your inspection a mini chime. I know that it is hard to judge scale in this photograph but if you will look at the wind catcher at the bottom of the chime you will notice that it is a teaspoon. Now I will direct your attention to the small spoons that ring against the lid of this tiny sugar bowl . I am at a loss as to what these little spoons are for, perhaps you could use them to get olives out of the jar without getting any juice. I just don't know, but they are interesting and they make a nice sound . Please click on the picture for a larger view.

Sugar Bowl Chime

Hey everyone, sorry its been a few days. I've been waiting for some more chain. I ordered some chain from an outfit in Ohio and it never came in so I started looking around and found some locally, and it was cheaper than the online store (go figure) . This chime is made from a sugar bowl with a small plate about the size of a coaster to catch the wind . Click on the image to see a larger view

Hi there again, here is a new wind chime Ive come up with. This one has a top made from a filigree tray and butter knives clanging against a candle holder with a spatula to catch the wind. I have acquired a bunch of silver pieces and I am awaiting a package full of more chain so there will be more shortly . See ya soon. Click on the image for a larger view.

Wind Chime 1.5

Hello again. This wind chime was commissioned by the owner of the first one and is intended to be a gift to a sister. Both were crafted from some silverware that has been in the family for years , now you know why they look similar . The main difference between the two is the first was made with four pickle forks and this one has two forks and two tea spoons . The pitchers do have a few differences but the floral pattern is the same. Feel free to click for a larger view.
