Haarlem Scissors

While searching for last week's train station photo, I remembered this. Are those really scissors? Who knows? What they are doing set into the street outside the big church near the Market Square, I haven't a clue. But surely I was not the first fiber artist to be surprised and delighted to come round a corner and discover them. Okay, now wait a minute. If you approach from the opposite direction, the scissors become...what? Two giant wands for waving in the air and making giant bubbles. Why is this here and what is it really supposed to be? It's a happy mystery.
