Say “I Love You” with a Weathervane

A weathervane can show the direction of the wind AND the direction of love!

Weathervanes are cleverly crafted ornaments that show the shifts in wind direction. These artsy creatures have been used since ages to help people predict the weather changes. Weathervanes are created with love, and are beautiful pieces of art. Whenever I look at the weathervane in my own yard, I get this warm glow over me because it feels so good looking at such a fine piece of art. Just looking at it and exploring its various hues and contours seems to release a rush of the “good hormones” in me, and I instantly feel happier. The weathervane that I have in my yard is a great copy of a large heron with its wings spread out wide, while floating in the air. This one was a gift from my husband for my 40th birthday, and I cannot help but thank him again and again for this wonderful and mystic piece of art. I guess it was his way to say “I love you”!

If you do a bit of a research on weathervanes, you will come to know that weathervanes are generally handcrafted, and carry an exquisite look and feel about them. It is all about the ability of the artist to capture a subject’s character and spirit in metal. These pieces of art are meant to be long lasting, to take on harsh weather conditions for years to come, without corroding or fading. The technique of carving a weathervane is similar to that used by goldsmiths and silversmiths, to produce beautiful sculptures.

Weathervanes are not items that only look good when brand new, and they will never end up in a dusty store house. Weathervanes are dynamic, and look splendid year after year. They are architectural ornaments that easily catch people’s attention. Trust me, these are worth the money spent – every penny!

Gifting a weathervane to the ones you love will always be appreciated. It is a fine piece of art which everyone (even your neighbors) will enjoy.
