[@fur1375]

Aww. Cute. I’ve been using puff paint on my crochet keychains I would make for my kids for years❤❤this takes me back❤ they would sell them at school 😊 they’re in highschool now. I don’t do key chains as I did before.🥰🥰🥰

[@susierawings1367]

Oh my goodness, Ashley, the pirate fix is actually a wonderful idea just for fun!

[@ACraftyConcept]

hahah would have been the cutest pirate chick on the 7 seas!

[@jodianderson2906]

Thank you for this video! I make a lot of crocheted toys that I sell at markets. The eyes are always the most difficult part for me, and they are the most important part because the face is the first thing people look at. I will be using this technique.

[@ACraftyConcept]

I'm so glad you found it helpful!! Let me know how it goes for you!

[@blueheartcrochet1962]

Brilliant and a game change for sure! Never thought to use on crocheting 🤔 I use a toothpick to dab around. They also have glow in the dark for Halloween projects. As always, your so creative! Thank You Always for sharing Ms Ashley! 💙💞💙💞💙

[@ACraftyConcept]

Omgosh yessss glow in the dark! I love that idea!!

[@bekkifek]

Thank you so much for your video and for the awesome practice sheet for eyes. You're so clever! I wish there was a way to hit the thumbs up button every time you make me giggle in addition to hitting it when I just like the video .... this one would've gotten about 7 just from me. Lol

[@ACraftyConcept]

hahaha I'm glad you enjoyed it thank you for the comment!

[@katecreates7]

Love this idea! I can’t wait to try it! Have you thought about maybe a toothpick for the tiny white dots? Seems like your have more control than with the bottle.

[@ACraftyConcept]

Thats a good idea!

[@doriskarloff964]

Great save on the 'wonky' eye - looks great. Love the idea of puffy dots on the soles of slippers; 2 new things I've learned today - thank you.👍

[@ACraftyConcept]

Haha thank you! Gives him character ;)

[@debrahill7519]

Love this idea. I’ve used puff paint on slippers but didn’t think about using it for details. Thanks !! Love all your ideas and patterns.

[@ACraftyConcept]

That's exactly what my brain did! Idk why it took me so long to make the connection!

[@idoallthethings]

ahhh! Love the gnome for fall. Will you be releasing that pattern soon, pretty please?!

[@idoallthethings]

[@rebeccapfeifer2376]

[@ACraftyConcept]

[@donnajeffery5186]

Thank you for this awesome tip. I was literally look at acrylic paint last night to add my own colour to safety eyes, but this is a fantastic idea. Thank you Ashley.. Your a star 😘💕🫶🤗

[@ACraftyConcept]

Im so glad you found it helpful Donna !

[@Brea890]

I would love to try this on some amigurami keychains or something 😊

[@ACraftyConcept]

I want to make keychain donuts asap!

[@terezinhamedeiros3015]

Todos perfeitos ❤❤❤

[@tahaniplays]

I got to get these wonderful paint awsome

[@ACraftyConcept]

I'm so glad you found it helpful!

[@kameillakittycat]

Could you print out a template and put a baking sheet over it and trace it out with puff paint and when it dries peel it off the sheet and glue on? I've seen similar techniques done with icing, do you think it would work with the puff paint too?

[@ACraftyConcept]

You can peel it off the laminated sheet if you use a cricut spatula. But idk how well they'll secure/stay to your work. Im going to test it out and share on ig!

[@melodyteasley5218]

Thanks for your helpful hints !!!!

[@ACraftyConcept]

My pleasure! Thanks for the comment!

[@AngryCatCrafts]

What a great idea, I'm going to give this a try. Nikki :)

[@ACraftyConcept]

Thanks Nikki! I'm glad you like it :)

[@bootsakikn]

So fun, great idea ❤

[@ACraftyConcept]

I'm so glad you think so Patti thank you!

[@shopping2scale]

Could you possible start out on parchment paper then let it dry and then glue on?

[@ACraftyConcept]

Yes!

[@kristipearce4819]

I have a question! Can we laminate the practice sheet and use the eyes we make there on the amigurumi pieces? Like, use the spatula to scrape them off the sheet and use fabric glue to fasten them to the amigurumi? That way, if there’s a mistake, we can just try again?

[@ACraftyConcept]

I mentioned in the video trying to "glue" them on with more puff paint. Idk if it will work or not but I'm going to try it! Ill share any experiments on Instagram :)

[@kristipearce4819]

@@ACraftyConcept Thanks so much! You are awesome!

[@sharonla2354]

I have signed up for your video's a couple of times how do you get the free eyeball templates and other things without signing up each time?

[@ACraftyConcept]

Every time I create a new freebie I send it out to my current list. If you are already on my list its waiting for you in your inbox. Check spam/junk/promotions folders.

[@allmycrochet8442]

Does it peel off?

[@ACraftyConcept]

Yeah! You can peel it off with a cricut spatula

[@itsinthebagcrochetwithdarla]

Is this safe to use on Amigurumi for babies?

[@ACraftyConcept]

You can get nontoxic I believe. But nothing is "SAFE" for babies. You could include a disclaimer. Also, I'm not a lawyer, this is not legal advice :D

[@tinad288]

So safer for kids over 3 preferably? 🤞🏻

[@debbyp2000]

Aren’t you supposed to put heat on the paint to make it puff?

[@ACraftyConcept]

I've never seen that before... Maybe its a specific type of puff paint...

[@jackiereali6047]

I love the idea of this but I would be afraid a child would pull it off and eat it

[@irene_f.]

I use Safety Eyes. The puff paint would be cute for decor though.

[@suzettelombard]

Are you sure it's safe for kids? Absolutely gorgeous, but I find things have to be rather nuclear-proof for my grandsons! 🫣

[@ACraftyConcept]

I wouldn't say anything handmade is SAFE for kids honestly. Kids are crafty and can make anything dangerous.
