Soothing The Soul (CONTEST)

October 31st, 2008

TIME”S UP

Check Back Soon for a Winner!

I have a wind chime above my kitchen sink that has been there for years. When the window is open and a breeze is blowing it sends music throughout my kitchen. Even if you just bump your head on it while washing dishes you get a tune. My Mom has always loved it. So, while we were at the Apple Festival we found a company called Bottle Benders. They make the prettiest wind chimes, ones that are perfect for a kitchen window. After much contemplation, we decided on the perfect one for above her sink.

This was her favorite. Colorful. Great sound. Just what she was looking for.

She now has her treasure residing above her sink for those perfect days when the window is open and the breeze is blowing through. It is appropriately called Summertime, and that is just what it makes you think of when the chimes clink together and send a tune as you cook.

Bottle Benders is a family owned company started in 1970 that involves all of the members, including the bird and dogs. They use recycled materials in everything that they make and are very environmentally friendly. Check out their about us page to learn all about them. They are located here in Georgia down the road a bit (ok, so several hours down the road, but still neighbors in my book). They not only make beautiful products but are a delight to chat with. I have found what great customer service they have, and how helpful they are on any matter you need to discuss with them. I am soon going to have to replace the old chimes in my kitchen, and I am definitely going to replace them with a set of chimes from Bottle Benders. Mine will be a set of the circle chimes though. I just fell in love with them.

Other than wind chimes you will see several other fun products that they make such as spoon rests and cheese boards.

The Bottle Bender family is offering you the opportunity to win one of their handcrafted chimes! Go check out their website and then let me know which one you fall in love with for a chance to win a sunset rainbow chime

Any of their products would make a great gift! Whether it be a just because gift, a Christmas gift, house-warming, etc. And at such an affordable price, how can you pass it up?

I like the Starshine windchime so much. I have seen these bottles at many flea market specialty stores, craft shows and other places and love them! I may just have to add a blurb to a post about them by next Friday in order to get an extra chance. They are quite unique and colorful. Reasonably priced too.

Pretty! I had a little glass chime for years that I loved. I had it so long that the strings (made of fish line) finally got too weak and a couple of the glass pieces fell off and broke. I love the October Afternoon or Northern Lights chimes!

Thanks for letting us know about this company!

I was so surprised to see this! I saw this booth at the Apple Festival in my home town (the Brushy Mountain Apple Festival in North Wilkesboro NC) and I LOVED their chimes too. My favorite one is the Hot Sauce Chimes. I think it is soooo neat how the labels are still on the bottles! So cute for a kitchen!
Thanks for posting this, and having a contest!

FYI you spelled the link wrong. You should fix that or else people will get an error page like I did. It’s bottlebenders, not bottelbenders.

All the impression charms were the best.
