It finally warmed up in SE Michigan ☀️ ☀️ ☀️ thank goodness! Gardening and watching the birds is the very best therapy, don’t you think? We have baby cygnets (swans) and I have been watching them like a hawk, or I guess you could even say like a “mother hen” 😂. Yah, I’ve definitely turned into a bird (watcher), and I hope you get a chance to go outside and do the same. I promise it will feel wonderful. Speaking of wonderful…how do you like our new “Capiz Rainbow Wind Chime”?
I was doing a little online shopping (here’s my redheadcandecorate.com Amazon store) and when I saw how fairly priced these homemade wind chimes were, I just couldn’t resist buying one. They come in several different colors, too 😳.
Every spring my color theme seems to be different, and for this year I am definitely leaning towards multi-colored, vibrant rainbow colors 🌈 . From the rainbow mat on our front porch, to now this rainbow wind chime I have lots of color to help keep me happy through these rough times we are all facing.

A Few Wind Chime Suggestions
Here’s a few things I want you to know about these gorgeous wind chimes.
The wind chime was delivered quickly, and was wrapped/protected nicely. In fact, it took me a little time to unwrap it. Each capiz shell was in perfect condition.
The wind chime is very nicely crafted, and I can hear their beautiful “chime” right now as I write this. I don’t like noise 😆, so for me to enjoy this tells you that they are not annoying. Their chime relaxes me, and blends well with the bird chirps.
A suggestion I have is to hang them in a location that is slightly protected from the outdoor elements. You need a location that gets a breeze, but not a full blown wind tunnel. To be honest, inside by a window is a great place, too.
Another very important suggestion is to hang them in the shade because I know from past experience that they will fade in direct sunlight.
Aren’t the wind chimes just so beautiful? I almost bought the blue ones, and still may. Stay tuned, I have our new front porch “gate” to share with you next! Subscribe here so you don’t miss it.

You did it again Julie…inspired me ! The porch looks ever so inviting and I agree the color in the chimes just makes it pop. We are redoing our deck and seeing your rail answers my question about what to choose.
I would love to see your deck, Nancy!! Thsnk you so much!!
Julie, my husband asked if the deck posts are 4×4 or 6×6. I wrote this question yesterday also but I think it did not go. Thanks for helping us with this as we choose our posts.
I will ask him give me a few minutes I will be back.
His answer: Underneath support posts are 6×6 hand rail support posts are 4×4. Let me know if you have any other questions!
I just LOVE your posts showing how beautiful your home and surroundings are. You make me miss my home in Ohio. You are truly a talented designer. I retired to Arizona after many years In California, but I have always missed Ohio where my heart always is. Thank you for sharing your life with us all. 💕
One of my best friends lives in Ohio, Barbara! She shares photos of her yard and it does remind me of Michigan. Thank you so much for your kind comment!
What a lovely Summer spot you have! It’s so inviting.🍍
I too am embracing the cheerful colors to cheer our world lately.
I’ve been touching up one of my windchimes with a bright paint palette😁🌈🍹
