A craft inspired by
My Face To The Wind: The Diary of Sarah Jane Price, A Prairie Teacher, Broken Bow, Nebraska, 1881
 |
 
A colorful, charming wind chime would have been the perfect addition to
Sarah Janes school. Make a wind Chime of your own to put outside your window!

MATERIALS:
- Any items you think will create a lovely sound (forks, sea shells, bells, beads)
- Fishing line or nylon thread
- Colorful plastic lid

DIRECTIONS:
- If the objects you collected are thin enough, poke a hole through
them with a nail or hole punch. Then, pull a piece of thread through
each hole and tie a knot.
- If the objects you chose are too heavy to poke hole through, just wrap your string around the object a few times and rub non-toxic glue over the string to hold it in place.
- Next, take your plastic lid, which will serve as the top of the Wind Chime and poke some holes through the top. Pull the string through the holes and tie a knot at each end.
- Punch 2 holes in the center of the top and loop a piece of string through the holes. Tie another knot and hang your wind chime from a nail outside your window, or from the branch of a tree!
