Sea Glass Wind Chimes

Step 1

Remove the outer ring on both embroidery hoops. We will only need the inner circles. Then, paint both inner hoops white.

Step 2

After the paint has dried, tie the rings together. Use the poly string to tie the smaller ring in approximately the center of the larger ring.

Step 3

Then, tie the rings together in 4 more places. Each string should be tied tightly.

Step 4

To create a "hanger", tie two long pieces of string to the larger hoop in two places, opposite of one another. Then gather the strings at the top and knot into a loop. Use a drop of E6000 anywhere you have a knot on the rings and set aside to dry.

Step 5

Using more poly string, tie your sea glass into long chains. The sea glass should not touch each other and dangle as traditional wind chimes.* Again, a dot of E6000 needs to be placed between each knot and the glass for safety.

Step 6

After your components have dried according to the manufacturer’s instructions on the E6000, then tie your chains of sea glass onto your rings. The six shorter chains go on the outside ring. The three longer chains go on the inside ring.

Step 7

Again, before hanging, secure each knotted place to the ring with a drop of E6000 and allow to dry. Then hang up your wind chimes and enjoy the sunlight reflecting off the glass each and every day.
