I keep forgetting to ask. Has anyone have a clue where I could find frogs eyes.????
This wee frog has been waiting 2 years to be finished. I'm hopeless finding things on ebay. I always need a link. Otherwise it says O to my search's. I couldnt even find Nance's mouse.

thanks heaps ,(in advance):)

Hi Matilda,

Could you use the cat's eyes, but place the slit horizontally to look like a frog?

I am pretty sure there's a German company that does all kinds of glass eyes....I try to find the address...

Matilda,

Try VanDykes Taxidermy--best eyes in the business! Under 'glass eyes' check 'reptile eyes'--I know frogs are amphibians, but there's no separate section! :/

Hi Matilda,
Edinburgh Imports carries them.  They have them in sizes 6mm -15mm.  http://www.edinburghimports.com/shoppin … a987sd=101
Hope they are what you are looking for.

Matilda, spotlight may have something to suit frogs, try the accessories section

Brilliant site Jenny! But unfortunately they have a minimum order policy. Their bear eyes and noses are wonderful. The professional bearmakers should have a wee gander at this site.  Spot light dont have them and the ones et edinurgh imports alas are not what I'm after. I'm looking for the toy eyes the big bulging frog eyes.  I dont make realistic creatures. Mine are more cartoony. I know they exist, I just dont know where?
What I have been thinking though, and thankyou all for the time you have put into this for me, well I have been thinking that maybe after Judi's workshop I should have a better idea what to do. I should have more options anyway.It should lead me to a solution.:cool:   matilda

Matiilda,
CR Crafts  has some frog wiggle eyes.  If I remember correctly they have three sizes and they are larger.  Might be more like what you want.
