Making DIY custom wind chimes with driftwood, glass, jewelry, stones & crystals!
People ask me how I make my unique wind chimes and I am sharing my process. In this video I show you how to make a driftwood base and use stones, crystals, agate and beads to make a beautiful piece!
I find cool driftwood, drill holes to make hangers for the chimes. I use beautiful objects and I show you how I string them together.
What I use: jewelry tools. – round nose, flat nose pliers, and wire nippers
20 gauge copper wire
driftwood, glass, jewelry, stones & crystals
On this channel I make lots of interesting things and show the process. I hope you’ll like the videos and subscribe for more! I try to make several videos a month as I work in my studio here in Modesto CA. thanks for watching!
Great video, Karen! Your voice is so calm and soothing, really enjoyable. Would you mind doing a video on how you put the hooks into the driftwood? That seems to be the part I’m having the most trouble with although I will admit my driftwood is a bit more thin than I thought so I’m worried about drilling into it too much and cracking it all
This video is one of the most popular ones on my channel. I guess lots of us want to make wind chimes! I love to make unique ones. I would love for you to comment if you have questions or comments, and I will respond! Hit the like button please, if you are inclined! Thanks
Super cute! Love the stained glass. What kind of chain do you use for outdoors?
Would 24g wire be fine?
Hi…just one question…are those little eye screws that you attach to the driftwood to hold the chains?
Where do you u get that size chain ?
Very cute
Thank you very much….great instructions and nice sounding results! Cheers
@karensgardencreations this video is one of the best videos explaining the process of how to create one of these. Can I ask where you recommend getting beads, crystals and chains from?
great video thank you for the ideas
Awesome, thank you.
Love this! Will try something like yours in a month or so will watch again than for sure! Thanks so much!
What a beautiful wind chime ! Thank you so much sharing this with us.😊
I’m trying to figure out what I need to put the little holes in the glass?
Very pretty. I have been wanting to make one with my lake rocks for a little over a year now. Thank you for this tutorial.

Automatic subscriber! I love your voice.
Does the jewelry links tarnish in the rain?

Great video! Thank you Karen. I found some beautiful pieces of dry Juniper on a visit to friends in Arizona and I want to make some chimes with them, so coming across this video now was perfect timing. I have a question for you. Do you clean or bleach the wood before using it?
