Sun chime

13 years ago

My sun/wind chime. Materials: glass lamp shade, copper sheet to make the "leaves", pieces of left-over stained glass, a plastic bottle cap glued up inside the top of the shade, that I drilled holes in so that I could hang the stained glass pieces with fishing line, glass beads glued to the edges of the stained glass, and a piece of copper wire to hang it from a bit of left-over chain. I used E6000 glue.

Lovely! I'd love to see it swaying in a gentle breeze with the sun catching the glass pieces! :)
