Glass glue in eyes for needle felt creatures
We are very excited to finally get these clear eyes in, with which you can design your own eyes! Great for dragons, cats, snakes etc.
Also available in two mixed combinations:
- 5, 7, 9mm mixed pack 12 pairs of eyes (4 pairs of each size)
- 4, 6, 8mm mixed pack 12 pairs of eyes (4 pairs of each size)
Available in black, amber, blue, green and clear (to add your own paint or nail varnish colour).
These clear eyes can be placed over any colour wool to change the colour of the eye, and they can also be coloured with nail varnish (see picture). You can extend the black pupil in the middle to become a slit by using black nail varnish to add the extra detail. To create the lines or stripes of an iris, you can add a little darker colour nail varnish around the middle, and then while this is still wet, take a lighter colour and drag from the darker colour in the middle out towards the edge, to create the line effect between the two colours as they mix. This technique is easier on the bigger sizes.
When you have finished the shaping of your creature, simply make a hole by pushing your felting needle or other sharp object in to create a hole. Poke the shank of the eye into the hole, check you are happy with the position, and then add a dot of glue behind the eye.
More detailed instructions below for a finer finish:
Felt a dent at eye socket before you put them in. Push your felting needle all the way in to the fatter part to make a wide hole. If it is a predator animal (dog, cat, lion etc) push the needle toward the back of the head for forward facing eyes. If it is a prey animal (sheep, rabbit, mouse) push the needle toward the other side of the head to make the eyes more on the side for looking out for danger! When you take the felting needle out, insert eye along same line as the needle. Put both eyes in and check they are straight and the same distance from the nose, and you are happy with the look. Add a little dot of clear drying glue behind. You can also felt a little wool around the top half and bottom half of the eye to form an eyelid and help the eye to look less 'stuck on'.

Beautiful fibres and a good selection of colours. This felts well
Super quick delivery
can’t wait to create this cutie
Low postage cost and it came in a couple of days. Thank you!
Loved this and enjoyed making all the kits included.
Excellent value for the money.
Makerss wool/viscose needle felting sheets for flat work is the best. It is thin and takes the needles perfectly. The white sheets are best when needing to needle felt bright colours. eg a blue sky for a landscape picture.
I wanted it to glue a brooch clip on to a little ceramic I was given. It really works well.
Lovely kit and accessories
I love the variegated batts that you get with Dragon mix. Great for 2D projects when doing landscapes. This is one of my stash that I wouldn’t want to run out of. 5* 🥰
A reorder of this lovely flesh colour fluff. It’s soft and easy to felt. Great for faces and paws. Speedy delivery.
Works very well and easy to use.
As always the box was brilliant
Just what I ordered
Brilliant for white projects, no bits of rubbish in it. Highly recomment this product.
Very happy with the eyes, ordered before, very quick delivery. Thank you.
These wee glass eyes add such a new dimension to fish. They come alive. Great quality and price.
