Wind Lights
I'm not really one for whimsical garden ornaments; I like my gardens decorated with flowers, butterflies, and hummingbirds. And daybeds and coffee tables. And firepits, fountains, and hanging light fixtures. Okay, I do tend towards fully furnished outdoor spaces, but in my mind gazing balls, plaster faeries, and other cute garden bric - a - brac are a big no-no. Yes, that also means garden gnomes. (That's just me - lots of very stylish decorating types just love the gnomes). But I love these beautiful 'windchimes' - although they aren't really chimes because they don't make a sound ... the little mirrors glint, sparkle and make dancing lights on surrounding walls and surfaces. I call them 'house earrings', but I suppose they're 'wind lights'.
I got these at my beloved Pot-ted. I think they are so fetching ... one thing, however - I think something about the flashing light disturbs and confuses bees. Ever since I've hung these up, right outside my kitchen door, I get bees flying into my kitchen and getting stuck there. I end up having to coax them outside without getting stung. I wonder what that's all about!
