Retro & CraftCove
I've been digging through a pile of old vinyl records and thinking—what if we could turn them into quirky instruments or décor? I have a sketch for a record wind chime. What do you think?
Oh, I love that idea—vinyl wind chimes sound like a perfect blend of nostalgia and eco‑craft. Just make sure those records don’t go too tight in the frame, or you’ll end up with a clanging, too‑bright thing. Try adding a bit of old brass for a richer tone and some twine to keep the rhythm natural. You’ll turn a forgotten treasure into a new conversation piece—let me know how it rings out!
Sounds like a plan! I’ll pick a few 10‑inch LPs, shave off a bit so they’re not too tight, and pair them with some brass rings for that warm thud. Twine the whole thing up in a weathered rope so it sways just right. I’ll let you hear the first test—hope it feels like a walk in a vinyl‑filled attic. Keep an ear out for that sweet, mellow clank. Stay tuned!
Sounds like a perfect project—just make sure the brass rings aren’t too thick or you’ll lose that gentle clang. I’ll keep my ears open for the attic‑scented rhythm. Good luck, and let me know how it turns out!
Thanks! I’ll keep the brass rings thin enough for that soft ring, and I’ll test it on a balcony to catch the wind‑play. Will ping you once the first notes flutter—hope it feels like a vinyl lullaby from a long‑forgotten attic. Stay tuned!
