G2 Eye Diamonds + Cleaning?

[Bothvar]

Hey guys! Sorry if this is the wrong topic, (if so, please correct me and I'll move my post! )

I recently got a HUGE batch of G2 ponies from my BF's family! And Some of them are missing their eye gems.
My question; Are there gems for sale somewhere that are the right size? Does anyone have experience with this?

I'm also looking into ways to clean up marker-stains! Who has the magic tip?

Love

Bothvar

I don't know about the eyes, I would like to know myself as well.

I use acne cream for marker stains. Not sure will it fade G2s colour as it does to G1s. All my marker stained ponies have been white.

Take a look at Far Dreamer's site, she knows what are the sizes for them, but not the babies. They are sold at Swarovski's site a bit expensive, but are an exact match.

Magic eraser for stains, or sunfading if they don't come out

You can get them in bulk over at Fire Mountain Gems, you can also get singles from Artbeads (not sure if they updated their stock)
I recently bought gems from Hobby Lobby that came in several colors and a variety of sizes.. Two of the sizes that came in the pack work for G2s and are the pointy backs :3

Sunfading would be your best bet wit the marker marks. Here's a good tutorial to get you started with that. http://mlparena.com/index.php/topic,288060.0.html

For the eye diamonds you can get the stick on body gems from the dollar store and cut them apart.  They already have glue on the backside so you just have to stick them in the lost gem hole.

How can you find out what color you need for your pony?

[Mirnyj]

I was wondering about the colors too!

[hathorcat]

Please dont use acne cream for the marker stains...long term it will cause you issues. Magic eraser and then sun fading are your best bet.

Those pictures are TinyShinyUniques I believe - she did a great thread about the different colour and size options here.

How can you find out what color you need for your pony?

Your best bet is to ask here. A lot of pony id sites will list eye colour but not always accurately enough to help you out. So if you ask here, someone will be able to advise you.

there is a section on MoonBreeze's G2 site  for the gem colors
