Doll EyesFor Your Polymer Clay OOAK Dolls
Doll Eyes; just how important are they?It's commonly said that the eyes are the window to the soul. Eyes are a very important aspect to get right when you are making your dolls. They are what give your doll a soul, or life. This means that you really can't skimp on the eyes when you're planning on making your own dolls. There are many different kinds of dolls eyes for sale out there, but a lot of them tend to be expensive. Acrylic eyes are generally known as being risky when using them for your OOAK Polymer Clay Dolls (because they may melt or distort in the oven). Glass eyes are expensive and the detailed ones tend to be too large for polymer clay dolls. German Blown Glass Eyes are tiny and generally come still attached to a wire. They can be cheaper, although the colours are more flat; lacking the detail of the larger eyes. I often still opt for these eyes if I am buying glass eyes though. Click Here to Buy Doll Eyes. Ultimately, if you can make your own dolls eyes you are way in front. Making your own eyes is not only cheaper, but you can then let your imagination run wild and tailor your eyes to meet your creations specific needs. Don't know how to make realistic eyes?
