What? I didn't show you how I make those cute and silly eyes?! Forgive me please. There are steps for making eyes, and it always a repeat part for most buddies. If I show the details every time I make a new buddy, my blog will be too long to read. So, some beginners around me said they want the details. OK! Here are specific steps for making an eye.
Step 1
Take a scrap of white wool for the eye ball and start rolling.
Step 2
Keep rolling the wool hard until it become a firm ball shape.
Step 3
Like this. If it's not that perfect, do not worry. You will be able to improve the shape after you poke it on you buddy's face.
Step 4
Place the eye ball on you foam block or any other soft surface, and needle it to an evenly firm ball.
Step 5
For the pupil, take a pinch of black wool and roll it into a tiny ball. Actually you can add the pupil after you fasten the eye ball on buddy's face.
Step 6
Use your felting needle to poke the pupil into the center of the eye. Feel free to play around with the location to change the expression.
Step 7 (optional)
You can wrap a few strands of dark-colored wool around the eyes to add the shadow for their eyes.
Step 8 (optional)
Take our Seal for example, add the strand of gray wool around the eyes and poke it. You get a vivid expression from his eyes.
