How to Hang Corinthian Bells

Hanging Corinthian Bells

• 1

  Hang the Corinthian Bells in a place where they will not touch nearby tree branches or structures. Be sure the hanging hook will be far enough above the ground to accommodate the longest pipes and the striker of the wind chime. Avoid locations near known bird nests or bird feeders, since the sounds or pipe movements may frighten wildlife. Avoid locations that are near glass windows, since a strong storm may blow the metal chime pipes or the heavy striker into the glass.

  Affix a planter hook to a wall, fence or tree trunk. Use a screwdriver to affix the planter hook or extension bar to a vertical exterior surface. Choose wood screws to affix the hanger to wood, or choose metal screws to affix the hanger to aluminum or vinyl. Clear away nearby branches and ground plants that may interfere with the chime's movements. Hang the Corinthian Bells on the hook.

  Affix to a roof eave or tree branch using an eye-bolt and S-hook. Use screws to affix the eye-bolt to the surface, then place an S-hook through the eye-bolt so the hook hangs perpendicular to the ground. Hang the wind chime on the other end of the S-hook.

  Use a shepherd's hook in an open area. Place the shepherd's hook into the ground, making sure it is seated at least 6 inches into the soil. Hang the Corinthian Bells on the hook.

  Hang indoors in front of a window or patio doorway. Affix a planter hook to a door frame or above a drapery rod, and hang the Corinthian Bells to catch the breezes.
