My kaleidoscope suncatchers and wind chimes are much loved: when the sunlight filters through the artist-made sea glass, you are treated to an awesome display of colour!

I make a lot of different styles, from freestanding and hanging suncatchers to small or large wind chimes. They are all great!

Kaleidoscope Sea Glass Wind Chimes by Coast Chimes

Kaleidoscope Wind Chime
$75 with Free Shipping at
Coast Chimes

A splash of colour: the beach glass inspired kaleidoscope wind chime. When sunlight shines through the small morsels of artist-made sea glass, you are treated to a spectacular show of colour.

Attention to detail and quality, with clear red cedar treated with an exceptional Eco-house tung nut oil, extra-thick plate glass (1/4 inch), and 3 handmade antiqued chimes. The chimes are cut from raw brass, double-sanded, antiqued with a special process (not paint or dye, this finish will never flake or peel), they offer a gentle, sweet reminder to look, when the wind chimes them.

This wind chime looks great anywhere, but is especially suited to being hung where the early morning / late afternoon sun can shine through the glass.

Having reached a state of serious chaos in my workshop, I decided to do an early clean-up-- something typically reserved until closer to the date of the annual Sunshine Coast Art Crawl, in October. But I really needed to do something about the mess, so why not add more display space at the same time as re-organizing? Pictured above is one of the additions, a new lit zone to show off some of my kaleidoscope works.

Everything in my home gallery is already photographed and available online, so no need to leave your home to order. Visit Coast Chimes to see all the great works available right now.

Natural Driftwood and Beach Stones Large Copper Wind Chime, Coast Chimes

Beach combing is definitely one of the nicest perks of my job, but is is also time consuming and challenging.

There is a lot of driftwood here, and even more beach stones. However, the vast majority of the wood is too big, too small, too beaten by the weather. The type of stone I like (rounded, smooth) is also not exactly abundant. So while it is a true pleasure to get out and walk the shoreline, finding nice materials certainly involves a lot of hiking. When I do spot a lovely piece of wood, a gorgeous stone, I still get so excited, even after all these years of collecting.

Back at my workshop, I choose from my collected treasures to assemble a great wind chime. When it all comes together so nicely, as in the wind chime pictured above, I breath a deep sigh of satisfaction.

When someone purchases, I am probably as excited as the customer, anticipating the arrival of their new art wind chime.
