I have left the wood pieces unfinished for buyer preference of color. I will seal the wood with polyurethane at your request.

I can send additional pictures, let me know which one. Close up of top, tubes, clapper, and wind catcher are available.

Will ship at actual cost to postal code. To check shipping fees, my postal code is 65757

If we can trade even, shipping fees paid by both parties. If partial trade, I will deduct your shipping fee of plants from the total.

If my price, or shipping arrangements doesn't seem fair, speak up!! I am wide open to your opinions and advice.

Similar chimes on e-bay are less money but the tubes are not galvanized conduit. The walls are a lot thinner and not as heavy as my tubes.

I went to e-bay to purchase a wind chime, looked a Wal Mart, and based on their prices....decided to make me one. My mother wanted the first one....gone. Made another and...gone.

$12.00 for shamrock
$15.00 for butterfly
$18.00 each for water cans
Plus shipping fees-see per trades above

You are quite talented, Lisa. I love the watering can ones. I have a lot of wind chimes..... but I am thinking about it. LOL

I received my windchimes from Lisa today and they look fantastic. I need a taller shepherds hook. It comes with a chain and hook and I will place them on the chimes when I get the taller stand. We also did a trade and I have enough seeds to populate the county. Thanks Lisa!

I'm looking for elephant ears, lilies, hosta, heuchera, oxalis, or let me know what you have extra. I would also like jap maple, or weeping mulberry (chapparel) *Blush* I think is how it's spelled.

Lisa, since I am primarily a tropical plant grower, I probably won't have anything you want. It appears that you are looking for perennials. You are welcome to look over my website, www.tropicalplantsandmore.com if you want to see what I grow. Here are the only perennials (that flower) I grow in any number:

1. "White Butterfly" Ginger - Hedychium coronarium
2. "Sunset" canna - Canna Indica 'Sunset'
3. "Blackberry Lily" aka "Leopard Flower" - Belamcanda chinensis - Oddly enough, this is not even in the lily family. It is in the iris family. Sticking tongue out
4. Tiger lily - Lillium lancifolium
5. Four iris varieties, but I don't know the specific varieties. I am showing all four below. It would only be a best guess as to what's what potted up

@rockskipper It just so happens I bought another shepherd's hook yesterday. The chimes are about 3 ft off the ground now.
I need a macrame pot holder for the other side of the hook.

Lisa I don't have any tiger lilies. Yrs ago they used to carry a virus and they might still, I haven't kept up. So I never bought any.

I only have two left, both watering cans are gone. However, if you like either of the two, I would trade for tiger lily, canna, the yellow veined iris, and the two purple iris. Just for you..... Thumbs up
