Glass glue in eyes for needle felt creatures
Also available in two mix combinations:
- 3, 5, 7mm mixed pack 12 pairs of eyes (4 pairs of each size)
- 4 & 6mm mixed pack 12 pairs of eyes (6 pairs of each size)
Available in black, amber, blue, green and clear (to create your own colours using nail varnish).
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'.

I bought the badger instructions and then realised I no longer have a printer🙄. I rang up and the person I spoke to kindly sent them.
What a luxury ✨️ when you been putting up using polystyrene or felting in the air. Helped my makes starting look more professional for sure along with the Heidi needles.
I bought this for my adult niece as it looks like her dog and she loves it. So easy to make. It’s like magic the way it works
This was the first time ordering from The Makerss and I was not disappointed. Being new to needle felting I wasn’t sure what to expect but the order was delivered very swiftly and the quality of the wool batts seem excellent. I will definitely order from here again.
Good wool.
Easy to use eyes, make a hole, push the eye in, adding a bit of glue.
Great service, really quick
Brilliant little creation
For tiny toes, fingers, beaks, etc. The paper may peel off if worked too much, so am going to run over with a bit of PVA glue before using next time.
Perfect for skin tone on faces, hands and feet. It felts up very quickly.
The crowns are so cute and perfect for my mini knitted kings for the nativity or felted animals
Love these so much!
Very versatile, and always arrive promptly!
Thank you, Makerss team x

Found them a little fiddly at first but did the job fine once I had mastered them 👍🏼❣️
Lovely pale blue glue in eyes, means they can be pushed more blue or towards green with different wool colours behind them. I've got a mixed size pack and found they're make good "odd eyes" with the amber too.
I bought these blue eyes in 5mm and 6mm along with amber and green. While I absolutely love the other 2 colours I've been a little bit disappointed in the bigger blue ones as most of them are almost clear with only a hint of blue, which is a shame because otherwise these type of eyes are brilliant. I've had to spend time sorting through the whole packet to find 2 that are a definite blue and not sure I'll use the other ones as they don't look like any kind of colour against wool. I guess I could give a coat of blue paint to the backs but it kind of defeats the reason I bought blue rather than clear. Probably the only thing from this wonderful store that I've not been raving about. Never mind.
