Posted by Megan Petersen on
Alexa Frear of Pismo Beach, California needed some new eyes for a plush, stuffed turtle. As you can see from the "before" image below, without eyes the turtle was a bit... lacking. Alex stumbled upon the sew on green sea turtle eyes at handmadeglasseyes.com, and determined that they provided the perfect solution. After applying the 16mm button eyes, the stuffed animal appears much more lively and full of character! You can check out the sea turtle eyes Alex used to restore this stuffed turtle here, or shop all sew on glass eye buttons here.
