How to Decorate a Kaleidoscope

Ben Gonyo here for Expert Village, we're going over building a kaleidoscope. We have our fully functional kaleidoscope, but it doesn't look that nice. So we're going to decorate it, you can do whatever you want here. This is just pretty much your own creativity. You can paint it, you can put stickers on it, you could paint it, hand sticker it, you could wrap it. What I did was I got this poster, it was from a pull out from a magazine, you could use the magazine pages itself, comics from the newspapers, pictures, holiday wrap. We are just going to cut an area that we like, we are going to lay it down. We are going to line it up with the end and measure the end of it here, make a couple of marks. Snip it away. Going to throw some tape on this baby. This is pretty much like wrapping a gift, probably don't need me to show you much more after this part. Grab another piece of tape and whalla we have decorated our kaleidoscope.
