Solar Wind Chime

You've probably never imagined a wind chime that didn't need the wind to chime. In fact, not only does a solar wind chime not need the power of the wind, it doesn't run on batteries or need to be plugged in to an electrical source. A solar wind chime is a special chime that uses the power of light. What's more, your solar wind chime doesn't have to have the sunlight as it's only source of light- any light source will do.

The chimes of a solar wind chime are soft and subtle. That's why they are often used in an office. The gentle sounds of a solar wind chime are relaxing without being distracting. Since a breeze is not needed, a solar wind chime can sit on a desktop just as easily as along a garden path.

Those who practice the art of Feng Shui believe that keeping a solar wind chime indoors will attract energy and keep it flowing. Whether or not you practice Feng Shui, most people attest to feeling soothed by the soft tinkling of a solar wind chime.

Solar wind chimes come in all kinds of shapes, sizes and designs. Outdoors they can be hung from a tree branch or bracket. Indoors you'll find them affixed to a window, on a tabletop or hung on a wall. Some outdoor solar wind chime designs include a solar powered feature to add light to an outdoor patio. They make a unique and memorable gift.
