Soy Candles

In addition to the dangers of “soot” from paraffin candles, it is now known that some candles made in China, Mexico, and the U.S. have lead wicks. According to a study in 1999, at a School of Public Health in Michigan, these candles emit from .5 to 327 micrograms of lead PER HOUR!! The Environmental Protection Agency recommends 1.5 micrograms of lead as the maximum per hour before it is deemed poisonous.

“Lead poisoning remains one of the most serious environmental health diseases in this country, and other parts of the world.”It can affect various organs in our body, including the central nervous ,cardiovascular ,and blood systems.

  Musical Wind Chimes

About Wind Chimes;  These particular wind chimes have a unique design, giving them the best possible clarity and resonance. Unlike all of the other wind chimes, that were on the market, where the strings were placed through the holes in the top of the tubes, these were designed with a pin inside the tubes at the resonant node, eliminating the interference of the string against the tube, thereby resulting in a “longer and  clearer resonance”.

The wind chimes we are talking about have become known as the most “musical’ on the market. They are hand tuned, first by the man who came up with the design, by his own guitar, and still by way of more advanced technology. They all have a distinct melody, which remind you of far away places.

Wind chimes are a way to bring unique sounds to your garden, but also offer a keen visual aesthetic appeal.  Choosing a wind chime suited to your personal tastes and enjoyment can be quite a journey.  You will first want to inspect the wind chime for its visual appeal; do you like it?  Unattractive wind chimes, even should they make a pleasant sound, will lose some of their appeal when you turn to gaze at them. 

You will also want to think about the sound the wind chime will make, if you’re shopping in a store, be sure to test it out, if you are shopping online, and think about the materials. Denser metals will make lower sounds, while thin metals will make high pitched sounds (the same can be applied to wood). With a garden or porch full of wind chimes each with a unique sound, you will be able to create your own symphony.
