windchimes by design

10 years ago my wife was shopping for a wind chime for the back porch. time after time all she found was the same basic design and lopsided dingers. nothing hung straight on them,..... you know, mass produced and "that's close enough" kind of work. after a frustrating day of not finding anything she wanted, she ask if I thought I could make one....lets just say the first couple years the wind chimes didn't look or sound very pretty. it took five good years of experimenting with the combination of what wood sounded best with what pipe. then add my wife's artistic drawing skills on top of that, we started making a variety of different tops for them, apples, roosters, weather vanes, etc. our friends and neighbors have convinced us to try a website to expand our market, so here we are ! the fact is that we still make them one at a time and refuse to lower our standards of excellence. Do you have a design you want to see come to life ? we can do that ! just email us a picture or tell us your idea and we'll take it from there. we do keep some wind chimes hanging around, but we don't keep a "supply" of chimes on hand, so some can take as long as a month from start to shipping when an order is placed. bottom line is, "we don't cut corner's". Using the same guide of excellence that we use for our wind chimes, we have now added a line of lighthouses and other wood crafts, each is hand made and a one-of-a kind. we "DO NOT" just buy kits and paint & sell them. every thing is done from scratch.

Please take a few minutes and look at some of our handy work! just click on or copy and paste our url to your browser. check back often, as we update this site twice a week.
