Replacement G2 eye crystals?
« on: January 22, 2012, 08:59:50 AM »
I wasnt really sure where to ask about this... Im going to be getting a princess silverswirl that is missing both eye crystals and i was hoping i could buy a couple from someone instead of buying a whole pack of little jewels just for a couple... They dont have to be exactly identical to the real thing but im hoping to get some that will fit in the original crystal spots.
 
Here is a link to a picture of princess silverswirls eyes. I just found out they're pink. I thought they were clear all this time lol.

I think Strawberry Fair might sell some of these.

well I'm sure there is someone here that might have some. I buy my gems from Art Beads, you don't have to buy a whole bunch from there and they started to carry chaton which would be closer to the shape of the G2 eyes I think.. but I don't know what size or color
My DeviantArt, why not drop by and take a look!

hmm well I know in flat backs, SS09 is the ones to use... well those are the ones I found that fit better. Light Rose would work but they don't come in that size, so best bet would be Rose (http://www.artbeads.com/2028-ro9.html) or Vintage Rose (http://www.artbeads.com/2058-vro9.html)

I need to remember to do that tutorial for replacing G2 Eye Gems soon...

So this site is reliable? What is shipping like and do they accept paypal? Sorry for all the questions lol.

Id love to see a tutorial for replacing eye gems. I was just going to tackle it myself, figured it couldnt be to hard but seeing someone else do it gives you extra confidence ;)

They are, I've had two orders from them for gems. Both came promptly :) As far as how much, my total cost for up to 6 gems (I have 3 ponies that need new eye gems done) was $2.43 USD and they do take paypal :)

Most of the cost is shipping but still better than paying for more gems that I won't need XD

If you remember who that was, could you please let me know? not so long ago I placed a topic that I was looking for someone who could sell me some but no one responded :(

Ohh... I would love to see a tutorial for replacing eye gems! And if anyone is selling eye gems, I'd also be interested, though I will check this site out.
