The Spinners

 No, I am not talking about the singing group from the fifties. I am posting about the wind spinners. So many are out now! I had thought they were mostly used in the spring and summer. But they now seem to be used all year round!









Even non-spinning spinners!


He parted the heavens and came down;
    dark clouds were under his feet. 

He mounted the cherubim and flew;
    he soared[a] on the wings of the wind.


He made darkness his canopy around him—
    the dark[b] rain clouds of the sky.

You have found so many different designs of wind spinners. They are also very colourful.

These are all wonderful. I can't even pick a favorite of the spinning spinners but I can say that I absolutely LOVE the non-spinning spinners.

I like three of these, and would stick them in my yard but the rest are a no for me. mother would love every single one of these and have one of each if she could. the lady accross from us has half a dozen of the ones from dollar tree, and they are a no for me also.. I seem to be drawn to the really expesnive ones, like the blue heron that was 200.00... must have expensive taste.

That is a great collection of spinners. We have one our grand girl Addy gave us one year for a birthday gift. Too cold to be outdoors right now so keep it inside. Reflects the light so beautifully. Your blog is so cheerful.

I do love these colorful spinners.
We bought 2 flimsy spinners at the Dollar Store.
They have lasted 3 months through rain and wind and spin like mad still. A great purchase for $2.50
Guess I will have to take a picture or two sometime soon, before the next wave of rain storms is expected to arrive.

You found a lot of them! I really like spinners and someday we need to have one for our garden.
Love the verse you shared today.

We have one spinner in our garden,but the funny thing is, it does not spin. Ha, it must need WD40!
Happy Tuesday!

Haha, I thought you were talking about the music group, The Spinners. These are really cool. That one on your Header is something else. I wouldn't mind having one of these in the Springtime. It would be delightful to see the wind blow and watch them spin. My neighbor has all kinds of garden stuff in her front yard.

I love those and wanted some so badly. I ordered two from an online website and never got anything. They just stole my money. They were in China. xoxo
