Doing your research... The first price you come across is never the cheapest..

I spent the night at the airport Monday night, waiting for my Tuesday morning flight back to Phoenix... just finished working the Toronto-Beijing flight.. Couldn't sleep properly, so I figured I should do some research on materials I use.

I'm not one of those that mass produces dolls for sale.  I take private orders and make each one unique and specific to the buyer's requests.  And so I like to purchase materials from sellers much like myself.. not some big company, but more of private sales.

For eyes, there are two types I use (aside from buttons).. the sewn-on bead type and safety eyes.  Depending on who the doll is for, I choose my eyes differently.. especially if it is for a little kid or baby - I will definitely use safety eyes so it won't come out at any time.  The two sellers I purchase from are 6060 and GlassEyesOnline.  Love their items and it's always a pleasure doing business with them.

Gonna leave it here for now... and watch some Stargate Atlantis... hehehe... and then continue with polyester-fill stuffing later!
