The final touches to any landscape theme are the wind chimes. Whether you live in the Southwest Desert, the Pacific Northwest, the Rocky Mountains, the Midwest or the great Eastern Seaboard, wind chimes will add an element of beauty to the design of your garden.
We suggest that you choose Grace Note hand tuned wind chimes because they are actual musical instruments. Musical wind chimes come in several distinctive tunings that make it easy for you to determine the sounds that harmonize with you personally. The chimes will even harmonize with each other when hung in pairs or sets. Another great thing about wind chimes is that they come in a variety of sizes. Wind Carillons can be up to seven feet long while the smaller chimes begin at about two feet long. If they are tuned, the quality of sound will be wonderful with any size.
Once you’ve decided on the tuning and size of the chimes, you’ll want to consider location. Do you love the sounds of chimes wafting through the bedroom windows or would you rather hear them from a distance? Do you have a gazebo, trees, a vegetable garden, a rose garden, or a deck? There’s no specific rule for hanging chimes and it is always possible to move them if you choose to experiment with the location. I have chimes near the front door, on the deck and situated throughout the yard. Everywhere I walk, the gentle sounds of music serenade the environment. My neighbors were so happy with the sounds that they decided to buy chimes for their yards too.
Consider engraving your chimes for that personal touch. Do you have a loved one, an occasion, a pet or a plant that you would like to remember? Have your chimes engraved with a special inscription and / or image.
Harmony, balance and symmetry are all integral elements in the design of your garden. The resonant sound of tuned chimes adds to the balance of a beautiful landscape. Tuned chimes blend in with the sounds of nature rather that having a “clanging” effect. The tones echo softly through the air and actually have a calming effect.
After the last tree is planted and the last stepping stone is laid, be sure to add the final decorating touch of wind chimes.
