A balcony is the most underused spot in an apartment. If you have a balcony, all you need is a little imagination and patience and you can have a small garden to brag about. Hang a wind chime or other garden art to add a personal touch. There should however, be some order in the way you arrange things so the overall space doesn’t end up looking cluttered.
You can grow tomatoes, cucumbers, green peppers and many more veggies, all in pots. These are a bit more challenging than a few flowers and if you’re not willing to work a bit harder, consider growing your own herb garden. It’s the best option to grow in pots, needing just water and sunlight.
If you hang two-rod or nine-rod Wind chimes, made of either crystal or ceramic, in the southwest corner of the living room, it is supposed to bring you popularity. The Wind chimes help chi circulate, and this will attract more people to you and increase your circle of friends.
A home’s entrance needs to be vibrant and lively, but north is associated with quiet and isolation, which is not favorable for bringing life into a home. Metal wind chimes can enhance chi in this area, attracting more activity and vitality into the home.
The west side of the home is sometimes called the children area. Hanging hollow metal wind chimes in this west area may increase the flow of chi here. This can promote harmony within the family, increase the chances of having children and have a positive influence on the health, behavior and academic performance of children.

Now that summer has almost passed us by, it’s a great time to reflect on the sights, smells, tastes and sounds that will soon be retired for another eight months or so. Many of the colorful birds that visit garden bird feeders will be venturing south for the winter. The crisp, refreshing taste of lemonade just seems out of place during any other season. The same is true of that sweet cherry pie aroma wafting from a nearby windowsill.
The sound of wind chimes is equally evocative of summertime, but, unlike many of the season’s other unique pleasures, it can be enjoyed all year long. Even if you’re not outside on the patio, basking in the afterglow of a hot summer day, you can still set up some wind chimes indoors. Just give them a quick brush with your hand and enjoy their melodious strains all over again. When the weather warms up again, just replace the chimes in their customary spot outdoors.
