Brighten Up Your Patio With Sun Catchers
from: Johann EricksonSun catchers add sparkle and beauty to any room in your home. Far beyond the paint-n-bake sun catchers of childhood, sun catchers come in a huge variety of styles that dazzle the eye.
The most common window-hanging style bring charm and flair to any room. Choose a color and pattern that complements your decor. Window-hanging sun catchers can be the focal point of a room, or a finishing detail. Whichever you choose, you'll be delighted with the beauty sun catchers add to your decor.
Wind chime style and dangling sun catchers are also great additions to a room. Hang small crystal sun catchers from the center of a valance, or from a chandelier or lamp to add light and sparkle. Dangling sun catchers are beautiful on patios and sun rooms where they really capture the light. Place a sun catcher in a garden shed window where it can be seen from the outside.
Sun catchers are also a great way to express your own personality or reflect your favorite hobby. celestial, lighthouse, butterfly, and floral sun catchers are just a few of the unique styles available. Custom sun catchers, including ones based on your own photographs or family crest, are also a great choice for adding a personal touch to your home.
Seasonal sun catchers are also fun and easy to decorate with. Choose a sun catcher for each holiday, or change your sun catcher with every season. It's a quick way to bring a bit of holiday decor to a room without a lot of work or dragging boxes of holiday decorations out of storage.
Sun catchers aren't limited to windows. You can find sun catchers for your garden, indoor plants, and even for the rear view mirror of your car. Use sun catchers as garden stakes, or to add color to your flower garden in the off-season.
While glass sun catchers are the most popular, don't forget about crystal sun catchers that reflects prisms of light, and translucent stones such as thinly sliced agate that make gorgeous natural sun catchers. There are sun catchers with pressed flowers, beads, gemstones, and even character themes for a child's room.
Let your imagination run wild, you can find a sun catcher to reflect any decorating idea.
