Doll eyes made out of glass carbochons
Sooo since this comes up frequently here a little step by step for making eyes out of glass Carbochons.
I like small anime bjd dolls so I make mostly anime eyes. This makes eyes that follow you and give the face more depth, very fun concept.
The Carbochon should cover the whole eye opening. Lunar Lore and Freedom Advocates take 8mm for example.
Minty Fantasy Forest, 10000escape plan, GSC, Don't Touch my bangs will take 10mm.
I also got a cheap 1/4 head that takes 14mm.
What you need:
-Glass Carbochons in the right size
-utensils you wanna draw/paint with, I use aquarell
-sandwich/parchment paper and pencil
-white paper that is a bit thicker, I use my aquarellpaper
-glossy acrylic varnish
-gel super glue
-nail or other small scissors
Any paper will do for the first part, since the aquarell paper I use is expensive I don't want to waste it. Take the carbochon and draw around it to get the right eye size on paper. Draw how big you want your pupils and make a template on the parchment paper. Be sure to try the Carbochon on, as it will act as a magnifying glass.
Now you can transfer your pupils on the thicker paper. Be careful not to paint them too close together, or your carbochons will not fit later.
Draw the pupils with your preferred medium. Let them dry.
To get less air bubbles coat the eyes and the
underside of the carbochon with glossy acrylic Varnish, let dry.
Put a drop of gel superglue on each eye and press the carbochon onto the eyes, make sure the pupils are where you want them later, for example mine are always a bit off center to make the doll look at you and not just stare ahead.
Let dry, cut out and fixate with eye putty.
Have fun customizing your dolls!

Somehow I can't add anything to my cart. I only have the option to buy now.
So Choice does no longer work for grouping small things into one bigger order.
Even in my favorite list it only has the option to buy now.
I just love her so much 😭 and made some new Clothes.
Right now she has the eyes of a Blindbox Bjd but some bigger brown eyes are on the way.
(Lunar Lores Twilight, the Eyes are black with a red heart inside)
(My idea is her head on a 1/5 Body and in C3 or C4 for a Moana doll. I just loooove the "Stupsnase" on her)
