I’ve had to wait since Saturday to show you what I’ve made this week. I nearly bust a gut keeping it secret, but I wanted to share it with my deskhopping friends.
So apart from nearly poking my eye out and sustaining a couple of scratches along the way, what do you think of my cutlery wind chime.
I’m a bit chuffed with it and intend making some more.
I went on a two hour workshop at Touchstones art gallery in Rochdale, Lancashire (UK). The best £10 I’ve spent in ages. It included all the materials and an instruction print out

Love the wind chime I bet the sound is lovely from it.

Oh wow, that's fantastic - it looks brilliant hanging in your sunshiney garden! The workshop sounded great, I wouldn't have minded doing that one either. Clever you!

I've always fancied doing some of those bendy cutlery pieces. Wish I had known about the workshop, sounds real good value for money and what a lovely wind chime you ended up with.
ReplyDeleteWorth all the scratches I think - it looks fab in your garden.

Lovely and absolutely unique!
ReplyDeleteHi Lynn. That's brilliant! Does it play in a major or a minor key I wonder? I'll guess it sounds lovely when the wind is blowing.
ReplyDeleteTake care. God bless.

You have inspired me with your wind chime! Very clever and I have a thing for wind chimes. I may just have to try this idea! Happy WOYWW! Glenda #22
ReplyDeleteWow, your altered cutlery is amazing! What fun. I've seen jewellery made of it, but never a wind chime. Something like that could be good for scaring the birds off your veg patch, too, I expect, because the sun would reflect off the spoons.
ReplyDeleteHappy WOYWW,

What an amazing value workshop Lynn and I love your wind chime. Happy WOYWW. Sarah #2
ReplyDeleteI love this so much - it's perfect in your wonderful garden!
ReplyDeleteThat's a tenner well spent in my book! xxx
That is so cool! What a fantastic thing to do and have. Thanks for sharing and Happy WOYWW. Have a great week, with love & God Bless, Caro x (#15)
ReplyDeletethat's so unusual! Love it. Have a great week Helen #1
ReplyDeleteOh wow! What a great wind chime - a complete one-off and definitely worth the cost of the workshop. Elizabeth x #30
ReplyDeleteOh, that's just perfect, Lynn! I've got a box full of old cutlery ... xxx
ReplyDeleteThat's a fantastic wind chime, and what a great course - sounds like it was worth every penny. I adore old cutlery and have a jug full - I used to bend it and shape it for different projects but I don't know that my old arthritic fingers would be up to the job now - I can barely get a lid off a jar!
ReplyDeleteHope you have a great week,

I think it is lovely and fun.
ReplyDeleteHi Lynn. Love how you used the cutlery. My friend bought a little metal bird in the garden centre the other week and it was only later that we realised it had been made with a fork. It was so sweet. Have a lovely creative woyww and a happy Easter too. Angela x17x
ReplyDeleteHow fab Lynn, worth every penny that workshop. We have a pickle fork that presents a rude gesture but it does the job of getting hold of those onions :))

Oh how fab is that! Fab value for a workshop too, but just so much fun and to come away with something finished and erm, working! I love it. I can totally see why you had such fun and really love that you saved it for us to see!!
