Blank Glass Cabochon Eyes
A cabochon is a gemstone which has been shaped and polished with a convex (rounded) top and a flat reverse.
Available in two pack options:
-
12 Pair Pack: contains THREE pairs EACH of 8, 10, 12 and 15mm
- 4 Pair Pack: contains ONE pair EACH of 12, 15, 20 & 25mm
Can't find the exact eyes you need for a particular project? Well, now you can create your own! Simply decorate the flat back of the eye to your liking - you can draw/paint/print a design onto paper cut to the right size to then be glued on, or even use nail varnish directly onto the glass surface.
There are so may possibilities - use these eyes for birds, dragons, cats, frogs, reptiles, people... or whatever other character that might be created from your imagination! And they are useful not only for eyes... why not use singly to make badges or to 'frame' a felted motif?
Note that these eyes are flat-backed that you glue onto your project, not push-in eyes with a stem.
How to use:
When you have finished the shaping your make, simply felt a dent where you would like the eye socket to be. Place the eye in the dent, check you are happy with the position and then add a dot of glue behind the eye.
More detailed instructions for a finer finish:
Felt a dent at eye socket before you put them in. If it is a predator animal (dog, cat, lion etc) you need forward facing eyes. If it is a prey animal (sheep, rabbit, mouse) place the eyes more on the side for looking out for danger! Place both eyes 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'.

from 1103 reviewsLooking forward to starting this kit.i have not done picture felt before. The quality looks great . I also have the robin and I will be in no doubt about purchasing the Kingfisher. Also great that it's liked to RSPB. Thankyou Makerss
Dear Makerrs I have not started this kit yet but I am looking forward to trying something different. I have enjoyed all previous kits that I have purchased from you. As always the instructions are clear. Thank you
I purchased this box as a one off as I watched Steffi on a Facebook live unboxing event and fell in love with Donkey and just had to buy him. The items in the box included felting mat, tools and lots of exciting colours of wool, I think it's fantastic, I just can't wait to start making him
This kit will be wonderful to create with all of the bright colors and no fixed pattern. Because I bought 2 of them I will be doing a "stabbing" party with a friend as we make them together.
Haven't used it yet, but it feels soft, and I like how it's biodegradable as well. Can't wait to try it.
Looks like a fun kit to make two beautiful cats.
So pleased I've managed to find these, really useful and saves stabbing of fingers whilst edging felts.
Lovely colour, love the fact that I can store my needles securely, well made, sturdy material
Nice size needle
Nice size, excellent quality
Both wool balls are excellent quality & nice size
Lovely & soft, well made & biodegradable
So excited. Just can’t wait to get the next one !
Looking at the kit I am very impressed with the quality. I am not going to be making it yet so can't comment on how it goes together, but looking forward to starting it later in the year.
Love quality. Easy to use. Value for money.
Bought these to make some eyes and they were worth it. Easy to use, clear and add a whole new dimension to my creations.
