Frames to Stand Up to the Elements

We provide outdoor decor pieces made from varying materials that are built to last many seasons. Metals such as iron offer rustic charm, while powder-coated steel, however, can provide a sleek, modern look. Choose pressure-treated pine or bamboo if you live in a wet climate with high levels of insect activity, as they’re sought after for being moisture- and pest-resistant. Similarly, recycled plastic poly lumber has a lower likelihood of decaying.

A World of Possibilities for Placement

Our wind chimes and mills make inviting additions to gardens, yards and patios. Many mount on simple hooks, brackets, stakes or chains, making them hassle-free to install. For windmills, choose locations that maximize visibility of the blades as they turn. Hang wind chimes where they sound as they catch a breeze, but you should avoid placing them in overly windy spots if you prefer gentle tones.

FAQs About Our Wind Mill and Chime Selection

What materials are best for wind chimes?

Materials for a wind chime often come down to personal preferences. However, aluminum is a popular choice, as it repels rust and has a melodic timbre. Bamboo, in contrast, creates a softer, more soothing note, but it may not last as long as metal. Shells or glass offer a gentle tinkle, but they’re typically delicate and not as durable. 

Do windmills deter animals?

Because of the way they move, and given the reflective finishes on most models, some windmills can keep birds, deer and other pesky species away. For those seeking optimal deterrence, place it in an open area where it can move freely, and make sure it spins smoothly. To maximize its effectiveness, consider pairing it with motion-activated lights.

How do I maintain a windmill or wind chime?

You can hand-wash your outdoor accessory with soap and water and dry with a soft cloth. Models with wood accents may benefit from the application of a layer of varnish periodically. During harsh weather, we recommend storing them indoors, in a cool, dry location.
