00:00If you've ever finished a crochet plush and then realized the eyes are what make or break the whole thing,
00:04this one's for you.
00:06I went down a serious rabbit hole looking for the best safety eyes out there, and I found 5 sets
00:11that crafters are absolutely obsessed with, thousands sold, ratings sitting at 4.9 and above, and honestly, prices that made
00:17me do a double take.
00:19Let's get into the top 5 doll eyes for DIY crafting.
00:23First up is the 100-piece mixed-size plastic safety eye set, and this is the one I'd hand to
00:28anyone just starting out.
00:30You get sizes from 5mm all the way up to 20, so whether you're making a tiny keychain bunny or
00:36a big cuddly bear, you've already got the right pair sitting in the box.
00:40Nearly 5,000 people have bought this and it's holding a 4.9 rating.
00:45And the price?
00:47$3.30
00:49That's basically a coffee for a hundred eyes.
00:52If you hate the feeling of getting halfway through a project and realizing you don't have the right size, this
00:58solves that problem forever.
01:00Next, the 20-piece 3D cartoon blitter eyes, and these are the ones that give your toys real personality.
01:06They come in 16, 18, 20, 25, and 30mm, and they've got that shimmery, slightly quirky cartoon look that photographs
01:14beautifully if you sell your makes online, that matters.
01:17They also come with hard washers, so once they're in, they're in.
01:21$3.71 for 20 pieces, over $4,500 sold, $4.9 stars.
01:28I'd grab these when you want a plush that looks a little cheeky instead of a little generic.
01:33Number 3 is my personal favorite, the Crooked Pupil 3D Glitter Eyes.
01:3830 pieces in a box, in 12, 14, and 16mm, and that off-center pupil gives your animals this sweet,
01:45slightly derpy expression that people genuinely fall in love with.
01:48It's the difference between a toy that looks fine and a toy that makes someone smile.
01:53This one is sitting at a perfect 5-star rating with over 4,500 sold, which almost never happens.
02:00$5.45 for the box.
02:03If you only try one new style this year, make it this one.
02:07Coming in at number 4 are the Large Glitter Safety Eyes in Green and Blue, sized 18 up to 35mm.
02:13These are for the big builds, the oversized bears, the giant bunnies, the statement pieces.
02:19The colored glitter catches light really nicely and gives that high-end handmade look, and honestly, large eyes in good
02:25quality are usually the hardest thing to source cheap.
02:2820 pieces for $4.37, 4.9 stars, $4,450 sold.
02:35If you've been sizing down your projects just because you couldn't find big eyes, this fixes that.
02:41And number 5 is the Bulk Pack 150 or 500 pieces of Classic Black Plastic Safety Eyes.
02:47This is the Workhorse.
02:49If you're making things to sell at markets, or you run a craft group, or you just go through supplies
02:54fast, buying in bulk is where you actually save money.
02:57Classic Black Eyes never look wrong on anything, from teddy bears to amigurumi to stuffed animals for kids.
03:045.11, 4.9 stars, and over 4,000 sold.
