Wooden wind chimes can add the beauty and harmony of wind chimes to your garden, deck, or yard, without introducing modern, unnatural metal and glass materials to the mix. If you are seeking an entirely natural look, then wooden wind chimes are just the right option for you.
The beauty of using wooden wind chimes is that you have access to so many different looks and sounds that whatever you choose will be unique. Large cylindrical chimes are made from wood by experts. They hollow out the tubes and sand down the outside, staining them to a beautiful shade, from light oak to dark mahogany. Creating these flute like chimes, they can put them together so that as they strike one another, they make beautiful, hollow tones.
On the other hand, wood chimes can be carved into a myriad of shapes. The sky is the limit, and whatever theme or motif you are seeking, you are likely to find the perfect wooden wind chimes online. Of course, a set of solid wooden carvings will offer a far different sound than you will get from the hollow tube like chimes. The sound will be a more muted sound with very little echo or reverberation. This is the beauty of wooden wind chimes: you have so many choices, and whatever choice you make, you will not be taking away from the natural beauty of your garden.
The wood you choose will make a decided difference in the feel that your wooden wind chimes will give your home. Bamboo is a very popular choice, instantly giving your backyard a taste of Asian culture or perhaps the feel of sitting on a tropical beach. Bamboo, while very commonly used, is not your only option. Lighter woods like maple and oak are unassuming and casual in nature; darker woods like cherry and mahogany are a little more formal, and will draw the eye because of the touch of class they will add to your yard. What is the right choice? The answer to this is whatever set you like the best.
Wooden wind chimes also make great bases for additional adornments. They can be painted with various designs; they can have tiny bells or other dangles hung from the ends of the chimes (which can give you a pretty, complex sound); they can be adorned in any number of ways. Shopping online will reveal the vast array of options available when shopping for wooden wind chimes.
