I have gone through so many etsy stores everyday, there are so many stores I am so impressed with the works and thought behind the store front. Today I went to this store, and the objects that Will created are adorable, they are truly one-of-a-kind creations! All the objects from this store are using at least 80% recycled materials. Unbelievable!! Have a look at his store and you will understand!!

Here is another Amigurumi Store in Etsy I like to feature! Her patterns and amigurumi are so cute! The amigurumi is about 8 inches big. Check out the pictures and you can see her works are very adorable. Visit her store: LuvlyGurumi.etsy.com

Oh Boy am I crazy recently? I have been experimenting different colors on hand painted eyes! I love pearl eyes, but plain pearl eyes now just isn't enough!

Old story: When I was in high school, at the time I need to choose what to study! It was many years ago. I like drawing, designs, I have been studying that in school for a few years, it's time to choose a main subject for the future, I wanted to follow my heart to get a diploma in design. However, I couldn't do that, my father told me the reality, the real world about designs, he told me nobody could make a living just doing design, not until a person is totally famous and a person totally famous may be happen 1 every 1000 of people. Result I took different course and listened to my father.

New Story: Since I have worked all these years, never touch my drawing since graduated of high school, then all the sudden, selling eyes in etsy, and all the sudden I started to paint these little eyes! Life is like a circle. Once I start to paint again, I can't stop, I ask myself to do a little more each time and I am loving it!

After these story, aren't we bored yet? So I am showing you these pictures of my newly creations! =) Drumroll please!!!

My new serious "FROSTY MARBLE", these I have to do it in 2 different days because of so many layers I have to paint to create frosty and marble effects, they shimmer too, it's really beautiful!

I know I know, I just can't stop discovering these great critters that this fellow Etsian made! I love to see how an artist put crochet works into a piece of crochet art! This time I am featuring this artist, her name is Angela, she likes to handmade this big creatures with eyes, many eyes!! If you haven't seen her works before, you can check out the pictures below or go to her etsy shop: AngDavidson.etsy.com She designed all these critters and just crochet it, she never use a pattern! Her works are unqiue, colorful and very creative!

Since I have decided to hand paint my safety eyes with pearl colors, they are really popular. It's not easy to find pearl eyes in the market. Pearl eyes really give lives to these hand-made animals. The pearl shimmering effects on eyes make the animals so real looking! You can find these in my etsy store: 6060.etsy.com. These beautiful cat eyes are 18mm in size. Colors include Pearl Hot Pink, Pearl Copper, Pearl Forest Green, Pearl Periwinkle, and Pearl Purple.

Today I have a list listing of 9mm animals toys eyes! 9mm is a very popular size if you like to make amigurumi or knitted animals! Mostly 9mm and 12mm eyes are always recommended in amigurumi and animal knitting books! If you are making medium size stuffed animals, about 4 to 5 inches high, or big animals with small eyes. Then you may want to consider to get some of these! :) This custom sampler colors include: Clear, Translucent brown, Pearl Green, Gold, Pearl Silver Blue, Translucent Red, Neon Orange, Neon Yellow, Neon Green, and Dark Blue. Safety eyes are hard to find, so get it while you can! ♥ To get eyes in my etsy shop: 6060.etsy.com To get eyes in my artfire shop: 6060.artfire.com

You know how much I love eyes! When I see some big eyes, small eyes. beautiful eyes, ugly eyes, even horrible eyes, I will pay some attention and research them a bit!! Am I sick? I think not, at least I am not the only one! :P I found a store in Etsy who sells Bloodshot Eyeball Pattern!! Who have thought that you actually could find a pattern for that! It's creepy, but I like it! The horrible thing is you can even crochet the eye blood vessels to go with it! Now you can call it you are truly have "eye" on somebody! LOL This seller is not as sick as me, she got some pretty patterns, e.g, Dish and Bath Scrubbies Pattern and Crochet Stitch Sampler Hat and Scarf Pattern Etsy shop: StitchnFrog's shop

I came across this shop a few months ago! This shop's a little unusual because of the nature of this shop! How often will you think that "humm.. today I am going to adopt an alien!"? However, when I got a chance to look through the ALIENS inside this shop! Each of them looks so tamed and well behaved! These aliens are actually kind of cute and they are truly one-of-a-kind! ^^ They came with different sizes, colors, or should I say "different planets"! LOL The best thing is you will get a "Birth Certificate" of the adopted alien! Wow! That's what I call value-added services! Lindsey will give you alien's birth certificate when you adopt these adorable aliens! That's so awesome! Don't you think? More information please visit this alien shop: adoptanalien.etsy.com Lindsey has another shop selling very cute handmade beads, earrings and dollhouse miniatures: SilverFairyCreations.etsy.com. I have purchased her beads before for my little girls. They love them so much. It's the right size for little girls to put beads together by themselves, and it's sturdy and beautiful! :)

I put together a picture of different sizes of safety eyes to let you see which size is better to fit your amigurumi or knitted toys! Any question please leave a message to me. Thanks! Clara
