Hi! How about framing them against a pretty vintage lace or quilt block?

Iāve arranged mine in a shadow box and display them on the wall. :)
Wind chimes would be a really cool idea. I would use fishing line because it will stand up to the weather. I thought this was cool, the way they used a spiral.
