Safety eyes

Wire
I use 14 gauge and I double it. The wire frame is used to make the clown posable and is optional
Wooden dowel
I use the one that comes in the fiber fill (used for head support)
Masking tape
I double my wire and put a layer of tape around it, if you purchase larger wire that does not need to be doubled, you do not need tape
Super Glue
I use this to secure the safety eyes, I do not use the backs.
Fiber Fill
One 16oz bag will be more than enough
Hooks
2.35 mm
3.5 mm
4 mm hook
5 mm
Using other materials may result in a different finished size. Be sure to check your gauge and adjust hook size to obtain the correct gauge. Gauge for different parts will be listed at the beginning of that section. The finished doll is approximately 22 inches tall.
