A perfect wind chime for a cat lover.
Inspired by a lovely tabby cat, I crafted this wind chime as a tribute to cat lovers.
10mm round tiger's eye beads intersperse with black and amber glass beads, and a wooden bead is the bail that strikes the four aluminum chime rods.
A laser-cut pendant with a cat silhouette is the anchor for this chime. The wood pendant and the wood disc at the top are painted by me, and triple-coated in a gloss exterior-grade varnish.
This chime sounds as lovely as it looks, and I think any cat lover would love receiving this as a gift. The trick will be not to keep it for yourself!
This chime is 3" across at its widest point, and measures 18" long. It is strung with nylon-coated jewelry wire for strength and durability.
