I'm making my friend a graduation gift. She really loves wind chimes, so I'm thinking of making her one. I need any kind of advice/how-to's I can get. I don't want just a traditional wind chime, but a really unique one. For example, she has one made out of forks and spoons. Anyone, please help :]


Answer
I don't really know how this would look, but I have an idea in my head.....

Go to a thrift store and buy an old ceramic tea pot and a few cups and saucers. You could use the tea pot as the "base" (for lack of a better word) and then possibly (carefully) crack the saucers and cups into smaller pieces and use them for the chimes on the end of strings.....or you even do the same thing (without the cracking) using a children's tea set.

I've also seen wind chimes made from tile (as in flooring tile) you can get the bigger pieces and break them up, or you can get the smaller squares that they use for accents, or do a combination of both. Of course, what you use for the main piece at the top would be up to you.

Basically what I would do is just go on a shopping spree at a thrift store (they have some of the most wonderful finds for crafts there), buy a whole collection of things, take it home, and see what you come up with. No matter what you make she's going to dearly love it because it came from the heart. Homemade gifts are always a thousand times better than anything you buy. Good luck.

Good graduation present idea for a group of eight people?

I have a really close group of 8 friends (4 boys and 4 girls). We are all graduating soon and I want to get us all a graduation present before we go off to college. One of my friends has already created a calender with all of our pictures in it and another friend has created a photo album for all of us. I really need some gift ideas that are personalized. Thank you.
