Lashes Tut #2 Using Tibetan fur

 Great easy Eyelashes for your OOAK dolls

I use one lock of Tibetan lambs fur. Use the straight top end closest to the root. But dont cut off the curly part yet. You can also straighten the hair before removing it from the pelt with a hair straightener.

Using a thin dispenser cap on my my bottle of FABRI-TAC I lay down a thin line of glue on a sheet of computer transparency paper.

Take the hair and spread it out on the glue line so that about a half inch or hair is on one side of the glue and the rest is on the other.

Use a sewing needle. I am using a curved needle, just because it has a handle... and spread the hairs out so there is a single layer the hairs should be touching but not overlaping where ever posible. Then press them firmly into the glue.

BE PATIENT..... let the glue dry. It is very important that you don't try to remove the track to soon. When the glue is dry, take a clamp other pair of flat tweezer type tool that has at least one inch of surface that touches when closed. You can trim the lashes slightly if desired. Grab the entire inch of lash at one time with the clamp across the length of it.

Life up one side of the lashes and use your nail or a blade to lift the glue free of the sheet. Be careful you want this to remain one piece

Once you have it loose release it from the clamp and let the glue settle again before using. It will remain flexible.

Next step is to turn this two sided hair ballinto two strips of lashes. CAREFULLY cut hte glue line with the part that was facedown before facing you, in half. Exactly down the middle soyou will have two full strips of lashes. Trim off any excess glue and use your pin to fluff the lashes.

Apply a small amount of Aleenes tacky glue to the underside of your upper eye lid and then insert the lashes into the glue and using an EXACTO blade, carefully continue to press the lashes into place. You can add more glue if needed. It dries clear so no worries.

Repeat for lower lashes but only use 1/4 to 1/2 of the lash line. on these small dolls it looks strange if they cover the entire lower lid. I used Gallery glass on this dolls eyes and it isn't dry yet in the picture, but the eyes come out crystal clear and with a gorgeous set of lashes.
