A unique handmade sea themed suncatcher windchime. 

Suncatchers and windchimes are a personal favorite and I wanted to make some. This one is vibrant and fun. It's perfect for anyone who loves ocean themes. The sun catches the glass, shiny wire, and gems perfectly. The wooden pieces at the bottom make a gentle sound in the wind. It's large enough to hang in almost any window or porch.

I made a thing. It'll be available on ebay, etsy, and fb marketplace by Monday.

It's made with glass, stone, and bamboo beads, gem chips, natural quartz crystal spires and polished agate slices that are wrapped in wire. The wood pieces were carved out of reclaimed wood. The blue paint has glitter so they sparkle in the sun.

I spent about a week doing this between work and I'm really happy with it. I enjoyed making this. I hope it sells. There was definitely a learning curve for a few days.

I'm going to make some smaller ones. Probably 1 to 3 strings in different themes and styles. They'll be available for sale as I finish them.
