i took this because i wanted to use bright colours for my kaleidoscope shot for the class with daves assignment. then i played around making the kaleidoscope image of it. then i played around with another shot from earlier in the week to see how just a couple of colours look. then, because i was hooked, i tried a shot that consisted mainly of one colour. now i can't decide which one to use. i love kaleidoscopes!

I didn't know what it was but for only 99 cents at the thrift store, how could I resist something that looks so vintage and unusual? :)

It came with the box, instructions, two blades, and the red/white thingy there.

Googling it makes it seem like a rug hooking item, for latch hook. NEAT! I have never been able to get into latch hook.

I will read the instructions later hehe
