Are windchimes decorational objects?

[myfs_51714]

1. wooden or metal windchimes
2. I Ching coins tied with red string
3. a pair of Chi Lin
4. wooden or metal carp
5. crystal globe
Are all the above considered decorational objects? Would they in anyway affect the Feng Shui of our apartment? I wish to know.
Im Catholic and my hubby is Buddhist. He placed all the above in our home.
Thank you.
Sincerely,
agnes

Dear Agnes,
Nowadays, due to the highly commercialization of Feng Shui, every object that can be sold has been given a `tag' as a Feng Shui enhancer or cure or neutralising agent.
For example, even in Chinese beliefs such as the three legged toad has been said to bring `good fortune'. Sometimes these objects are sold for more than US$50 or more and I am not too sure who has the better fortune?
The seller or the poor buyer who had just departed with US $50 or more?

Usually, metal windchimes can be used as the equivalent of I Ching coins (6 coins) used as " Big metal " to cure bad earth or bad wood elements.

Alternatively, some FS practitioners advise the use of grand father clock i.e the tick-tock.. effect (as adding the sound of metal).
Wooden wind chimes can be used to enhance a sector that requires the wood element.
Here, it is simply looking at the Flying Star of a sector and finding out which element is needed to control another element.

string
Yes, 6 coins is usually used here to represent `Big Metal'. As it is primarily used to neutraise #2 sickness; #5 misfortune and #3 bad wood element.

The red string helps to bind the 6 coins together or control it.
Alternatively, some FS practitioners would sell their clients a piece of copper ruler. The COPPER RULER represents `Big metal' and is used in similar cures.

For all the above objects; avoid a similar concept such as `over eating' or over indulgence...
If he liked a wind chime and already `eyed' a location to place it, usually, this is acceptable.
But, if one purchase wind chimes or several wind chimes in the hope of enhancing the home, this is a different thing all together.
Placing several wind chimes is like trying out one's luck or the chances of placing it at a wrong location ... is a higher risks.
Warmest Regards
