Default Wind chime's

My wife wanted wind chimes, so now we have 55" Corithian bell wind chimes. Now it sounds like we have a cathedral in our back yard. Does anyone else have them.

Yes but on a much smaller scale. Rose buys little ones and experiments with different ones often.

I love wind chimes and have several of them in the yard. I keep them on the smaller/quieter side though.

We have had them for years. Now that we are retired to the beach they chime a lot with the wind coming off of the ocean. Some people find them annoying but we like them. My father-in-law made us 3 custom grandfather and grandmother clocks and they chime so we are used to the bonging.

I love windchimes and have several small ones, but nothing as grand as yours.

You're going to have to buy some, they are manufactured in Manassas, Virginia.

I've got two at home. They don't ring very often but when we get the Santa Ana winds, I have to take them down. Then, they never stop and they can be too noisy.
