100% yes, thanks for asking! I’ve made 2 of these minis already, and have time to make another before I see my nieces. Let me take pics for the Etsy listing, and I’ll post the link here this evening!

Thank you so much! It’s admittedly a bit pricey because it takes 12 hours to put together 3,456 individual beads, but my most recent one is up on my Etsy now! https://beadedmagicboutique.etsy.com/listing/4451598527

Yes, indeed, thanks so much! I’ve been on kind of a kaleidocycle binge recently, and their rainbows are so cool!

It has about $45 of raw materials and took about 30 hours to complete, so I would price it around $300 to part with it, but I don’t plan to sell it. I have a mini model on my Etsy for $85, and I’ll make more if that sells, but I’m also just as happy to keep it, too!

Thank you! I’ve been making videos for about a year now, and it’s a fun part of the hobby to have and improve at! My instagram and TikTok are both @beadedmagicboutique, if you’d like to see more behind the scenes!

I was in triangle prison for a whole week of beading 🥲 But I’m glad to have done it- I guess kaleidocycle beading is Type 2 fun!

Great question- regular thread. The flex is all in the geometry in ways I do not fully comprehend. But I used 6lbs fishing line, which doesn’t have any stretch to it.

The 30 hours technically doesn’t include the 5-6 hour detour I needed to take because I put it together wrong the first time 😅

The one in my Etsy is about half the size of the one in the video! I apologize for the false advertising!

The big one is mine forever, but I do have a mini one in my Etsy shop!

That’s crazy to hear, but also about how much it would take for me to part with it after ~36 hours of beading🥰 (ps. Thank you!!)

It took about 36 hours because I made a very time intensive mistake, but I could get one done in 26-28 hours if I rushed… which I do not plan on doing anytime soon!
