Comments (9)Good Morning Carol I also use beading wire and crimp beads. Like Kudzu said, it looks very neat. I have used fishing line before but it doesnÂt seem to hang (drape) for me as nicely as the wire does. Also, I worry that any sharp edge on the drilled holes (in the glass) might eventually cut through the monofilament fishing line. Not as much of a concern with wire. I prefer crimp beads to tying knots. I just donÂt have a very dainty touch and I end of with terrible looking knots. And crimp beads are easier to work with if youÂre trying to make matching wind chime strands and you need them to line up at a certain length. I have used tiny jewelry lobster clasps or fishing swivels at the beginning of a wind chime line to make it easier to attach to top pieces or remove to repair but mostly I just loop the wire right through whatever holes I have in my top pieces. I use lots of heavy glass beads on chimes so how heavy each line is kinda determines how many metal crimp beads I use in between each section. I bet the chandelier piece is gorgeous and IÂm so anxious to see your finished project. Aggie...See MoreRose rosette disease -Wind Chimes
Comments (7)I have replanted in the same place many, many times, but I've always waited a year. The one rose that kept coming back had been in the same place for about a hundred years (based on the remembrance of a neighbor in his 90s who had been caught by the paired thorns at the base of each leaf node when he was pushed into the mature rose as a little boy.) It had roots going out fifteen feet into the yard and it kept sprouting RRD sick growth for 18 months after we removed the original bush. Give yourself at least through the rainy period next winter and early spring growth. And watch like a rose hawk. Ann...See Moreaftermidnight Zone7b B.C. Canada
