How to make nose from oven baked clay;
How to make custom eyes using glass cabochons;
How to make lifelike eyes;
How to paint the face.
Template of printable eyes.
Materials:
• I use Red Heart super saver (#4 medium weight) yarn as main yarn -1 skein.
• I use thick fur yarn – Premier Bunny – 1 skein. Any thick fur yarn can be used.
• Matching crochet hook with your yarn – I used hook 3.25mm for all details.
• Plastic nose (22mm/3/4”) or make it by yourself from oven baked clay. Video how to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=00ipIIOW5WI&t=80s
• Plastic eyes – 20mm or make custom: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fg1uW-s77zE&t=1s
• Stuffing
• Super glue, gel, clear
• Wire for front legs to help dog to hold his weight and sit.
• Any material for tinting (I used dry pastels and stiff art brush)
• Doll join (45mm), if you would like to make moveable head, and avoid sewing.
• Optional: dog slicker to brush yarn. It looks well with no brushing, but after brushing it looks truly like real fur.
