Sofia and I love to sit down together and craft. My mama was a crafter, I was a crafter, and therefore it makes perfect sense that Sofia loves to create masterpieces with her little hands. We stumbled across this sweet wind chime via Mama. Papa. Bubba. {who found it via hands on as we grow} and couldn’t help but make one for our porch. We got right to hunting our flower garden and overgrown forest ferns and brought them back to the kitchen table to begin. Nature needed and instrument, and we were going to make her one.
// WHAT YOU’LL NEED:
Canning Jar Lids
Contact Paper
Flower Pedals, Leaves, and Ferns
Hot Glue Gun
String
Stick
Drill
Simply put, we collected our materials and got right to it. Once Sofia had her floral collages ready, I traced around the jar lid and cut out a little smaller; placed them right inside the lids and they stayed nicely. I hot glue’d some suede strips to the tops of the lids and after “the man” drilled holes through our stick, Sofia threaded them and I knotted them. A complete team effort on this DIY. We hung, we waited, we listened; It’s really quite soothing to listen to on a windy day. This family DIY was a complete success as i expected it would be, we love our wind chime!
