Porch

• Relaxing on your porch while your wind chimes make music in the breeze fits many people's fantasy of an idyllic summer day On the porch, wind chimes are close enough to your living space that you can hear their music, but also in a place where they won't get in the way. Look for wind chimes that can hold up to the elements in your environment if you're planning to set them up outside.
  
  

Doors

• Another option for placement of wind chimes is over a door. Many shops use small wind chimes positioned over the door to alert the owners when customers are coming in and out, as the movement of the door causes the chimes to clink together and chime. If you have many open doorways in your house, consider setting up some wind chimes to take advantage of the breeze between rooms. Wind chimes over doors can get tiresome after listening to their music every time the door opens, so consider doors that are less used in the house.
  
  

Gardens

• Free standing wind chimes make for a beautiful garden decoration that can enhance a natural space. You can purchase a wind chime stand that can be set up in your garden. Look for chimes and stands that will be able to withstand the elements in your environment. Wind chimes can also be hung from low tree branches in order to add a rustic feel to your garden space.
  
  

Windows

• Windows are another good location for wind chimes, as they can catch the breeze from outside while still bringing music into the house. Many people like wind chimes in their kitchen windows so they can listen to the music and enjoy a light breeze while cooking and working.
