How To Needle Felt Realistic Animal Eyes








Say hello to Hamilton!

This simple technique can be applied to most needle felted animals; the Winter Hare is life size.




EYELASHES
Let’s talk eyelashes – the cherry on top, the breeze on a summer day. Trust me, it’s the easiest bit to jazz up your critter. And below I’ve whipped up a quickie four-step guide.
Eyelashes are the quickest – we are talking a couple of minutes – and easiest feature you can add to your projects. They also create a striking finishing touch to your animals features.

As always, your tutorials are so clear and easy to follow, thank you.
Thanks so much for sharing!! I enjoyed the eyelash tutorial !!
Thanks Terri. So glad to hear it 🙂
Sandy, THANK YOU so very much for your tutorial on needle felting eyes. I have a faceless little fox I made in a class …hum…maybe 7 years ago. I look at him and say…someday little buddy… The class was not long enough for faces to be completed. My Dear little one has no face. I am grateful to you Sandy, now I can give my fox his personality. 🙂 I see you have closeup pics of a fox face too, I can’t wait to get at him. Sandy you have been so helpful. I so appreciate this, it was very kind of you.
If only I was closer to come to your workshops.
