“Wish I may…Wish I Might…
Wish for Peace on Earth Tonight”
Author Unknown
Peace
Such a simple
wish…yet so complex.
As we celebrate our 10th
year at La Casita de Kaleidoscopes, I look back at our initial
goals. We opened our doors & hearts to you with the desire to
“have fun &
enjoy the entire process.”
To enjoy & share
the kaleidoscope with others,
and
in doing so… pass on the peace & joy that it brings.
It has been a
delightful journey and as with the kaleidoscope an ever changing
always beautiful one. Poco a poco we have accomplished our goal as
we spread the beauty & color to thousands of you,
evoking that playful,
peaceful feel.
Over the years, we
have noted that Kaleidoscopes Promise Peace.
We have transferred
this peace, playfully from the kaleidoscope,
to your hearts &
souls and hopefully you have in turn
shared
that peace with others.
Wish
As we go into this 10th
year celebration, we would like to reflect
and pass on our joy to
those not so fortunate.
Throughout
2008 we will be supporting “Make a Wish New Mexico”
by donating 10% of our
profits to them.
The Make a Wish
foundation grants wishes of children
with
life-threatening medical conditions
to enrich the human
experience with hope, strength & joy.
I can think of no
other organization that fits our goals so perfectly.
So
every time you buy a kaleidoscope, you will not only be spreading
peace, but making many wishes come true too
Thanks
Also we want to again
celebrate you…our faithful customers.
We are bringing back

Scopes & Kaleidoscopists
As always, we continue
to thrive due to the wonderful work of our very devoted kaleidoscope
artists. It was with
great pleasure that we hosted most of our artists last year and they
were as delighted with our casita as we are with their work. Their creativity continues to abound…
Just a few spectacular
pieces are:
Bob & Grace Ade
perform beauty with ‘Black Magic’
The Colliers
‘Spirit’ continues to thrive.
Marci Clark continues
to spread ‘Peace’ with her serene 10 point star scope
which commemorates our
tenth anniversary.
The Coghills have
turned colorful wooden scopes of ‘Calico’ & ‘Artist’s
Palette’
‘Eggs’ &
‘Desk Sets.’
Sheryl Koch’s
‘tiny brass scope’ or ‘necklace’ is a beauty for being so
little.
Henry Bergeson senses
‘The Sine of the Times’ dinky but dynamic with it’s
interchangeable options.
The Knox’s continue
to impress with ‘God’s Promise’ & ‘Rorschach’
both intricately
colorful inside & out.
Gerry Farnsworth has
placed some of his marbles
in his clever self
contained marble scope & holder.
And a new Artist Geri
has some fun florals of glass & clay and
‘The Mad Hatters Tea
Party’…beautifully created with broken china pieces.
Sue Rioux’s ‘Fire
& Ice’ & ‘Surf &
Turf ‘ Set’s are spectacular.
And last but not
least, Will Smith’s new Fountain has a more contemporary look and
the ‘Astral Plane’ with lots of light, boasts one of the largest
oil cells.
We also have some fun
new Starry Lights candle holders & colorful glass wind chimes to
help complete the entire colorful peaceful feel.
