No rain is required for this fun invention, now you can have rainbows all over your room with the Rainbow Maker.

Plus, the device is solar-powered, it just needs sticking to a window that receives direct sunlight then the built-in solar panel begins to power the motor, which in turn rotates the real Swarovski Crystal underneath to create rainbow colours that dance across the room.

The company has made the science simple, sunlight is made up from a multitude of colours. Refracting sunlight through a crystal splits the light into its component colours making them visible to the human eye.

It's a great price too, just £18.95. Have a look at the pictures.
