Anyone make their own windchimes?

Pixie (my 6 yr old) and I made some from a vegetable can and some old keys and paperclips.

I have 2 that I've made with seashells- one hanging on an embroidery hoop with pieces of a broken cereal bowl wrapped in wire as well, and one hanging from a short, thick stick.

I'm wanting to do one from silverware or something else interesting. Any ideas? I'm mostly thinking of using "found" items instead of buying things, but I'm open to ideas.

I'd love to see photos too!

I have seen them done with used silverware..they look great..have also seen them with small prisms (like off an old lamp)but i think that was more for the sun to reflect off them then anything.
I would love to see some pics if you make some
