You Will Need (4 things)

  • Bicycle Tire rim
  • Black Paint
  • Twine
  • Vintage Keys

Steps (4 steps, 60 minutes)

  1. 1

    You will need an old bicycle tire rim. Mine was in need of a freshen up so I spray painted it black.

  2. 2

    The next step was to wrap twine all around the rim, or at least as much of it as the twine will last. (More about that on the blog.) I also added twine so it could be hung from the top.

  3. 3

    And lastly for the "bling" or music of the chime, I attached vintage keys that had been painted white.

  4. 4

    And that is my wind chime which hangs from the branches of the fig tree.
