My instrument is called, "Emily's Winter Wind Chimes."
My Mom helped me make it. I picked the flower pot bell idea
from the patterns that we got in class. I made some changes
to the pattern. My Mom and I went to Home Depot and I picked
out the different sizes of clay flower pots. Then I got our
big craft box and found some things to hook the pots
together and to decorated them.
First I painted the pots and let them dry overnight.
Then I measured and cut the ribbon and decided where the
stars, flowers and stones should go. My Mom glued them on
where I wanted them. She had to do the glue because it was a
hot glue gun. After they were decorated, my Mom helped some
to get them hooked together.
My instrument makes sound when you shake it back and
forth like a bell. To change the dynamics of the sound I can
shake it hard or gently. I don't think that the pitch
changes. I think the timbre is a clinky, chiming sound. That
is why I named my instrument, "Emily's Winter Wind
Chimes."
