Solar-Powered Wind Chimes. Really. From Nature Hills Nursery

(HIT) - Imagine a delightful concert of wind chimes during the day and a colorful light show at night. The new Color Changing Solar Wind Chime gently plays pleasant notes when blown by a breeze, and it lights up in seven changing colors at night.

Four solar panels provide power for an LED light contained inside a beautiful crackled texture glass sphere. (Not electric outlet is needed.) At night, the LED light progresses through seven colors, one color every three seconds, and its light is refracted through the glass, creating star-like patterns on walls and floors. The central sphere of the Color-Changing Solar Wind Chime acts as a striker for the five chimes that hang from the canopy, producing a gentle cascade of tones in breezes. The copper-colored finish gives this wind chime a lovely appearance. (The Color-Changing Solar Wind Chime is also available in a silver finish.) $44.95 from www.naturehills.com.
