A Bit About Carolyn

Carolyn Bennett began her career as a kaleidoscope artist in 1978. She considers kaleidoscopes a contemporary art form and is known as one of the pioneers of the modern kaleidoscope movement having won multiple awards for her kaleidoscope designs. The discovery of an ever-unfolding world of color, art, philosophy, and beauty within the kaleidoscope continues to inspire her.

Special Occasion Kaleidoscopes

We will transform an invitation or commemorative document into a one-of-a-kind kaleidoscope. The invitation to a wedding, Bar or Bat Mitzvah, Birthday, Anniversary, birth, or any special event becomes the decoration in the body of the kaleidoscope!

Special beads, treasures, and charms are combined inside the kaleidoscope’s liquid-filled chamber to reflect the mood of the invitation, the colors of a wedding, or the recipient's personality. 

Special Occasion Kaleidoscopes are now exclusively handcrafted by C. Bennett Scopes at Nellie Bly in Jerome Arizona.

Please click below to order your Special Occasion Kaleidoscope! 

Please note: upon receiving your invitation and forms, there will be a four-week lead time to create your scope. Currently, orders are suspended until May 15th. After that, normal lead time will resume. Thank you!

Scope measures 9″ tall by 1-3/4" around.
