I was wondering what your favorite eyes are? and where do you purchase them.
I usually use black onyx beads but would like to try something else. Anyone have any suggestions?

Thanks

Hi Yvette!  I get almost all my mini eyes from Stephanie at :

You might want to try the tiny glass eyes on wire or the 4mm acrylic eyes.... just browse around and see what appeals to you!

Intercal also has onxy beads as well as black glass eyes on a precrimped wire that you insert just like "BIG EYES" for BIG BEARS!  I like to use these from time to time as well..... I think they are the 500 style

Thanks Kim- I will take a look at these eyes.

I don't like the eyes on a wire. I tend to break the wire off cuz I pull too hard when insetting the eyes so will look at the pre looped ones.
