Where do you buy "eyes" for your Amigurumi?

[Lov2Crochet]

I looked at JoAnns and didn't find any small ones. Where do you all buy yours eyes at?

I found them at Joanns and Michaels, but both have a limited selection. Hobby Lobby has a lot more. There are a lot of places online to buy them too.

if you can find a fellow viller who lives near a hobby lobby sometimes --ahhh most times they are kind enough to get what you need and send them off to you. thats what i have had to do in the past. hobby lobby seems to have the biggest selection besides ordering online.

 

good luck

The last time I bought eyes, I got them at A.C. Moore.

I just ordered a big batch of eyes from Sunshine Discount Crafts. I'd been getting them at Hobby Lobby, but at 99cents a pack, I figured I could do better buying in bulk packs, rather than the tiny packs that the stores carry.

 

Even with shipping, it came out much cheaper (cost per pair of eyes) to order them online, and they had some sizes that HL didn't carry. The bulk packs are 50 or 100 eyes to a bag, depending on size. The store is at http://www.sunshinecrafts.com I ordered on Sunday & they arrived this morning, so the turn-around was pretty quick.

 

The only drawback was that they didn't have all the colors available in the 'glass' animal eyes - just brown. But I mostly use brown animal eyes or the solid black eyes anyway so it wasn't a big deal I found a few neat items in their clearance section too that I could use for other projects...
