Let’s All Chime In!
I love chimes. The tinkly ones sound a bit creepy to me - like an abandoned Old West ghost town, but not the monster chimes. Wow! They create the most beautiful Spring & Summer sounds. Though your neighbors may not appreciate your chimes all the time, I’m sure there are worse things in the world that people have to put up with. I’m going with the chimes.
The cost runs the gamut; from super inexpensive to around one hundred dollars. I don’t spend that much on chimes. The most expensive ones I bought were twenty dollars and they came from Pier1 Imports. I’ve had them up for two years and we all love them. They’ve even got tabletop chimes now!
Don’t go “Blair Witch Project” and make your own out of silverware, pebbles, beads or feathers. Those are just trashy, tacky and nasty. Invest ten dollars perhaps in a Michaels Craft Store - they have some that you buy right off the shelf - you don’t even have to make them. Even a small set hung in the kitchen window will elicit beautiful music when the breeze strikes them.
Chimes move around our energy. They are one of life’s wonderful mysteries and enjoyments. Hang them up and enjoy! Sipping coffee on a porch, listening to chimes is truly one of life’s pleasures.

I actually am scared of chimes. We have some hung outside that someone put there that freak me out when it gets really windy.
Yes, they used to really freak me out too. Then I learned about energy flow and I got ones that did not make that “tinkly” sound - the tinkly sounding ones are creepy.
