I wanted to try out the velcro method for removable eyelids, so I thought I'd film the process! If you can't get your hands on good magnets, velcro is also cheap and found basically anywhere like Walmart, even Dollar Tree.
This also is the method to use if you're wanting to add eyelids to an already finished fursuit head - that doesn't already have magnets in the head foam. :)
Comment if you have questions or suggestions for more tutorials!

@oneggiri 4 года назад

does the velcro ruin the felt at all? i feel like the velcro hooks would start ripping the felt after switching the eyelids around enough times Dx

@freckledcatcreations 4 года назад

You know, I did have that thought, and with enough use, it might make the felt extra fuzzy. But I have an idea, possibly taking a felting needle and felting the fibers back in might work? or maybe wet felting (wetting the felt and then rubbing it a lot to tangle the fibers back into it). Though I see many makers doing velcro eyelids , and nobody ever mentions this problem, so either it happens and people don't care, or it doesn't happen...

Why don't u do ur patterns from the bottom of the fur, ur wasting so much fur there

@freckledcatcreations 2 года назад

i'm not wasting so much fur, that's a little piece there. silly. but if you're shaving fur, you need a bit to hang onto at the bottom, you cant shave right up next to the edge. thirdly, who said I didn't use this scrap in other projects? you don't know what I used it for. *raises eyebrows*

@eurojammer 4 года назад

Can you do this with 3D follow me eyes??

@freckledcatcreations 4 года назад

You should be able to! The deal is where you put your eyelashes. If the eyelashes on the eye are flat on the head, then the velcro should be able to stick well! (but if you just do an inside ring of felt to cover the raw fur edge, then it might not stick as well. hope this explains it!)

@Kaimanshead 4 года назад

I haven’t fully finished it yet but what I am doing with mine is that I am following an eye tutorial which puts a large ring of black foam around the follow me eye to make the effect more prominent. I am then glueing and wrapping felt around that ring to make a harder more stable eye plus making it able to have a Velcro eyelid. Let me link you the video.

@VTINE00 2 года назад

Does this method fuzz the felt over time? Debating if i should do this method or the tiny magnets

@freckledcatcreations 2 года назад

It would over time, but felt is just tangled-together wool fibers, and they got that way by "wet felting" which is getting it wet and rubbing it all over until the fibers tangle together! I assume you can do some of that to un-fuzz the eyeliner, no problem :3c a bunch of other makers do velcro eyelids like this too, and nobody's mentioned a problem, so I assume there is none! A thing to remember about magnets is that they will attract your shaver when youre shaving, so be careful to not shave too close / get stuck, and also it's always hard to place the magnets PERFECTLY so the eyelids line up with each other exactly!

@paytonfurmanski895 4 года назад

Where do u find that kind of craft felt? It looks strong but not fuzzy. With covid it's a lot harder to come by these materials in my situation. Love your suits and tutorials, they really help!!

@freckledcatcreations 4 года назад

So glad they help! It's stiff craft felt actually! It's in the same section as the regular felt sheets, Joanns has em, hobby lobby will too. dunno the exact thickness but it's much sturdier than regular felt !

@freckledcatcreations 4 года назад

YES you can!!!! I see no reason it wouldn't work. Just make sure the velcro has some stuff it can stick to. It won't stick to the fur. (magnets instead of velcro might work better for moving eyebrows)

@Meow_dasKatze 3 года назад

If you want to do this you might consider, that the velcro may damage the stuff that it's sticking to over time, especially when you remove and put it back on many times. I don't know that for sure but I know for sure, that velcro can definitely sometimes damage fabric

@freckledcatcreations 3 года назад

I think it would damage the felt about the same as using the soft velcro side! and you'd need to replace the velcro at the same rate as the felt. I think you can't really get around it. I know other makers use this too.

@Meow_dasKatze 3 года назад

@@freckledcatcreations but I mean if you use magnets instead of velcro it won't damage it I guess
