When you have finished the shaping, 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'.

A great touch to the makes

These eyes in various sizes are a great touch to the makes. They add a new dimension and bit of life. Sometimes I find the posts are too long for the smaller eyes but can easily cut a wee bit off with wire cutters.

Great black eyes for my wool dogs

These are perfect little eyes for my needle felt dogs. Sometimes they aren’t all the same size which is a shame but other than that they are brilliant.

Black easy glue in eyes

These eyes are really easy to use and give a more realistic look to the eyes than using felt alone.

Neat little flexible eyes

These work well as tidy little eyes, perfect for birds or caricatures. The plain black sphere meant the angle is less important so long as they’re in the right place.
