At first glance, you will be drawn in by their size but upon closer inspection, you will easily recognize that chimegarden windchimes are well-designed, well-made, weather resistant & unbelieveably SUPER MELLO.  In today's chime market, my design is incomparable.  By combining the theories of music, numerology & feng shui with the 5 earth elements (stone, wood, metal, water & fire), each chime will offer BALANCE & POSITIVE chi (energy) to its' hanging environment.

My name is DeeAnn Buckley & I am a multi-media artist.  I am ONE of 3 chimemakers who still takes the enormous time to completely handcraft musically-tuned windchimes.  My process is not automated; I have no desire to mass produce my chimes & therefore, rarely wholesale.  I showcase my chimes in person (with help) at the MN renaissance festival & about 10-20 juried art & craft shows annually.  Please visit www.chimegarden.com for current annual show schedule & holiday !webspecials!

tips
Wind likes to whip around walled structures that prove to be the best locations for any chime.  If you hang your chimegarden windchime from a screw-in hook or wall bracket, please make sure that the windcatcher has sufficient swinging clearance from the walled structure (see www.chimegarden.com/hooks.)  BEST TIP:  get a chimegarden HOOK $15.  A strong rope or chain thrown over a low limb of a tree & a shepherd's hook staked in the ground are other ways to hang your chime.  You may need to try different chime hanging spots for best wind action placement of the windcatcher.  If you hang your chimegarden windchime way out in the yard, be prepared to have to sit out there to hear it!  My chimes are SUPER SOFT & MELLO and are not recommended for purchase with the sole intent of driving your neighbor(s) crazy.

MUSIC
chimegarden windchimes are incomparably SUPER MELLO & offer soothing, relaxing & healing music.  My chimes will always remain SOFT sounding because the wood that strikes the metal is SOFT wood.  Each chime is an arrangement of specific aluminum/copper notes that together vibrate into a pentatonic scale.  Therefore, all Al chimes blend & harmonize with each other, SO any combination sounds great.   The copper chimes give a “metal” sound & offer a different look.

WOOD
I appreciate the value & gift of all trees but want to make & offer the most weather resistant NATURAL windchimes, SO, I make every effort to RECYCLE shorts & scraps of redwood & redcedar.  I use only these 2 woods to assure chime wood longevity to at least 10 years.  Fortunately, it is becoming more difficult to find these premium woods & unfortunately, recycling is time consuming.  Thus, this type of recycling increases my labor of an already labor-intensive product.  

Redwood & red cedar are SOFT, oil-based woods that do NOT rot and will weather into a grayish-blue color.  I select only clear, all-heart, rough redwood to plane, cut, shape, drill, rough sand, finish sand & linseed oil into wood chime tops.  I recycle redwood & redcedar scraps & shorts to work into the middle wood & windcatcher pieces of each chime.  Upon receipt of your chime, some wood parts may be tacky due to climate changes when I was applying the oil; consider this extra weather protection.  The wood is NOT impervious to the weather so I recommend that you retreat the wood parts once or twice a year with linseed oil, beeswax, or any type of water-sealant. 

METAL
I cut & drill specific grade 1", 11/2" & 21/2" OD aluminum alloy tubing anodized "brite dip" & 1"COPPER to measurements specific for different notes.  I insert nylon eyelets into each drilled hole of every aluminum note to increase longevity in rope suspension.  I debur both ends & the drilled holes of all notes to eliminate buzzing & thus, ensure sound quality & protect against the wearing of the windcatcher rope.  

Anodized aluminum does NOT rust nor oxidize.  Rain spots will clean off with a 'Windex' product & paper towel; a .0000wt. steel wool will remove hardened oil, bird doo & salt.  To minimize waste, I try to use all the aluminum I receive; thus, some aluminum notes may have scratches.  I try to strategically drill the notes so that the 'prettier side' hangs facing you.  Scratches in NO way affect the note; the only way to alter the note would be to drill another hole, cut & or dent the aluminum/copper.  

STONE
My flagstone tops are striking & represent cutting edge artistry as well as give away the fact that I am slightly crazy!  I work huge pieces of Pennsylvania Blue flagstone & Minnesota limestone varying in color & thickness, down to approximate sizes specific for each chime top using my hands first & then a small chisel.  I wash, slow-drill in a waterbath, wash again, & seal each stone top.  This work is strenuous, slow & requires great patience BUT is, I think, visually well worth it and results in a more weather-resistant chime top.

ROPE
Hand-tied knots using the highest-grade braided nylon rope available suspend all chime parts.  I engineered this UNIQUE method of suspension in 1997 & it is my trademark today.  This technique increases the longevity of the rope, eliminates the need and expense for hardware & makes repairs easy.  Hey!  Restring that beloved-grandpa-made, had-forever-chime that has been moved around the garage 50 times using my method; call me for help.
