For Your Wind Chime Business - Craft idea to sell
Posted by CraftyPanda on
Wind chimes have a long history in different cultures. They were originally created in South East Asia and were often made of organic materials. They were said to ward off evil spirits and hung in entryways to homes to prevent dark spirits and bad luck from entering the household. They still symbolize good luck and are sometimes hung to assist the flow of chi. More commonly they are used as a piece of decorative art or garden ware.

What is a wind chime?
A wind chime is a group of tubes attached to a central striker by a cord of some kind.
The tubes are usually hollow and made of thin materials so that sound can successfully move around them and through them.
A striker is a solid centerpiece that connects to each tube individually so that the tubes may move freely.
The cord may be made of any kind of string, even linked metal.
When fully constructed the wind chime is hung in a place where there is free-flowing air for full effect. When caught by the wind, each of the tubes will knock gently into one another and it will cause a ‘chime’ or a tinkling/clinking sound. Depending on the materials used they can be very high pitched. A wind chime can be a decorative piece or used for spiritual purposes to keep negative energy out of the home.
What is the best material to use for a wind chime?
The best material depends on a couple of different factors.
The first is aesthetics, if your customers have a major preference for wood or bamboo over metallic pieces then there’s an obvious choice.
The wind chimes you choose has to be pleasing to your clients if it’s going to hang around their homes.
Sometimes this can require doing some market research within your own store and finding out what’s most popular with your regular customers.
The second is the idea of sound.
Some materials and their weight will impact how much noise it will make.
Certain plastics will make higher-pitched sounds, metals can often be deeper and woods somewhere in the middle.
This is very individual to the wind chime parts, it’s best to stock different options for your consumer.
It also does no harm to have an in-store display where the customs can get a feel for the sound the wind chime will make once made.
The third factor is how environmentally conscious your brand is.
Wind chimes often see the best and worst of the elements meaning that they may not last forever.
Offering aluminum wind chime projects or wooden wind chimes means the end-user can recycle them.
This can be a great selling point, especially in the current hyper-conscious market.
Plastics may be seen as a negative in that light and so it’s best to give your consumer options.
How do wind chime projects work?

Who are wind chime kits for?
When selling any item, the who is oftentimes the most important question to ask. Wind chime kits have many different target markets.
The most obvious are hobbyists, garden enthusiasts and spiritualists. I’ll go into more detail as to why these projects would appeal to those specific markets.
For the average hobbyist, they are constantly battling boredom and are always ready to take on new projects. A wind chime kit is a perfect afternoon activity that allows them to get involved with their material of choice. In the end, they’ll have a handmade wind chime that will leave them feeling fulfilled.
Garden enthusiasts want nothing more than to deck out their own garden and work with their hands. The wind chime projects we supply offer both of those things in one. They’ll get to treasure their hand pruned garden even more so with handmade decoration to boot. It’s taking a space that is special to them and allowing them to add to it by hand.
Wind chimes have a long history of being interlinked with spirituality and the spiritual world. They have been believed to be an important defense against dark energy or evil spirits. For those who are spiritually inclined and who are dedicated to protecting their peace and their space, these projects may align with them feeling connected to the protection of the space. They themselves had a hand in creating a ward to fend of negativity in their home.
