Animal eyes [toymaking]

[Snowyboy]

Hi, I am in the process of making a large wooden rocking "Llama" for my Grandson's birthday. It measures approx 3feet tall with a head 8" inches long from back to nose tip.Any suggestions as to where i can find some suitable plastic eyes and nose for this one? I am very limited on time to search the web and i'm sure there is something out there somewhere!A UK site would be preferable please. Many thanks for your help. KRL [animal lover]

I don't know about the specialist shops - but my first stop for anything like this would be Ebay.

I know a couple of haberdashery shops which sell toy making accessories. Search on "toycraft"

Many thanks for giving me some of your time. I will have a look at both of your suggestions today.

I think a llama should have wiggle eyes - with lashes ;)
