For years, I kept a pinwheel on a post anchored in an umbrella stand. As an alternative to a wind sock, the spin is entertaining. This year, though, a wind sock is a possibility.
Marie, Good point. Strong wind is the reason to buy a sturdy wind sock.. I think I’m going for a wood twirling thing, like a weather vane pinwheel blend. May
I remember this pinwheel. I think you posted it before. It must look so pretty spinning around in the snow. The blue shows up against the white fluff. ; )
I fear a wind sock wouldn’t last too long here. It would blow away.

I'd like a pinwheel, if only because of the colours.

DeleteThe shiny pinwheels from a discount store don’t last long. The thick plastic ones need to be secured down well.

We have a twirling garden ornament that I enjoy watching go round and round on windy days. Sturdiness is the key!
ReplyDeleteLorrie,
DeleteYour garden must be lovely from the photos you post.
Sturdy pinwheels for sure!

ReplyDeleteSheri,
DeleteYes, that pinwheel has been posted before. It was one of the longer lasting ones and a favorite photo.
