Does anybody know the exact sizes of gems that the unicorn PYO takes? I wanted to buy some 1.5, 2, and 2.5 mm size ones for it but I don’t want to waste my money if it actually needs something like 1.7 mm gems instead.
November 25, 2017 at 1:31 pm #1532294Hi, Mika!
They really don’t have to be exact.  I use pp6, pp8, pp12, and pp18. That is roughly 1.3mm, 1.5mm, 1.9mm, and 2.5mm. The smaller ones just sit deeper in the holes (the really small holes I place gems in probably aren’t even meant for gems). You could easily use the sizes you have chosen. 🙂

You can email Ms. Susie for them and they also ask us to send any unused eyes back to them in return. Sometimes we order an eye color when we order the sculpt and it ends up not working with the color scheme so Windstone is so kind to do this. I also order eyes from Dreaming Tree Studio on Etsy. Her eyes are fabulous! You can also request in your PYO order remarks to not receive any eyes or jewels if you have too many already, I’ve done that too.

January 10, 2021 at 1:18 pm #1634428Does anyone have a good vendor for 11mm slit-pupil eyes for the PYO Keeper?
I’ve been thinking that they would suit my current WIP better than regular eyes.
Woe unto ye that angers a dragon to flame!

It’s a real shame, I really loved the quality and variety of eyes she offered!

January 11, 2021 at 8:22 am #1634456Hello! This is Dreaming Tree Studio. I have gone through my mail and I wanted to come on here to let you all know what is happening regarding my Hand-Made poly resin irises for all your PYO needs;
Yes, it is true that I am going to stop making eyes, and irises. BUT…. This is the good news:
I have built up such an enormous stockpile of designs, and varieties in various stages of production that barring material availability, I have enough inventory to last for at least another couple of years! The Etsy Shop has RE-OPENED to accommodate ALL Liquidations. Actually… I just listed a decent amount of irises on there last week. If you purchase more than $35 dollars worth, the shipping is FREE for anyone living in the US. Canadian, and Overseas folks will never pay more that $7.50 USD no matter how much or little you purchase. ALL regular and semi-metallic sizes 4mm and up are $5. Any of my Special treatments like Full Metallic, Aura, Hologram, Carnival Glass, Dichro, and Fireglow are $10 per pair.
I know… the only down-side to my decision to end the eye making is that I will no longer take any custom orders. However, I have so many hundreds of design options that anyone can surely find “something” that will suit your PYO style.
Now… For the person who was looking for some 11mm Slit irises in a Teal color, I probably have something to meet your requirements. Just contact me directly, so I may help you! You can email me directly, or message my Studio on Etsy. You no longer have to be a member/join there to shop, or contact any of the sellers.
I will continue to cast up, and use up my materials until I LITERALLY have none left. There will be weekly, and sometimes even daily listings updated. “Don’t count me out just yet!” …I’m still in business for now… Come see for yourself!
