7.5mm Animal eyes Safety eyes Pastic eyes

Recently I have these 7.5mm beautiful eyes and I finally got them listed today. These are very beautiful eyes. It can be used for small to medium size amigurumi, stuffed animals. If you are looking for decent eyes that are colorful for your soft toys, click here to get it! The 3rd picture is not my picture, it belongs to my dear friend, Lucy! She knits a lot of animals for fund raising. Some people have told me it's very hard to use colorful eyes because it's hard to match the colors of the soft toys. Now with the picture from Lucy, you can see all these eyes will match your knitting/crochet fabric, just be brave and creative, yours will turn out just as great!!

Installation of Safety Eyes Instruction

Installation of Safety Eyes Instruction
By Clara (6060.etsy.com & 6060eyes.artfire.com)


3/28/2009 updated


Usage of this document:

Do not distribute this document or sell this document by any means. The intention of this document is to show crafters how to install the safety eyes. Thank you.
Suggestion:
1. Make sure the eyes are located in the right place; once the washers are in, it is very hard to pull them back out again.
2. If you are using material like fabric, vinyl and leather, enlarge the hole a little by poking a needle (yarn needle/ skewer/ large sewing needle/ knitting needles, etc) through the material first.
1. Place the safety eyes into the holes and check to see if they are in the right place.
2. Once you think they are in the right place, you can start the process of placing washers at the back.
3. This is the back side of the safety eyes.
4. Holding the washer fluted side up, slide it on to the eye post.
(Again, MAKE SURE the eye is in the right place. Once you push the washer to the back of the eye, it will be extremely hard to remove).
5. Apply even pressure with both thumbs to slide the washer down the eye post.
This is the finished look of two 15mm cat eyes placed on my crocheted animal.
If you use the little black safety eyes, installation will be the same as the 15 mm eyes. Remember to MAKE SURE the eye is in the right place. Push the washer fluted side up towards to the back of the eye.
This is the finished look of a 6mm black eye installed as a cat nose!
With all the parts together, my cat finally can see and smell.
I hope this document helps you to understand how to put the eyes on your critters and creations. Thank you and enjoy!
Clara :)
