  1. This is a fun idea! Going to have to make a few…..I know family friends will want one! Approx. how many eyes did you use and how big was the box?? Thanks!!

    1. Thanks for the response! If you click on the paper mache box link (under “things you’ll need”) you will see what boxes we used for this project. It is 3 inches x 3 inches and it took approximately 110 googly eyes, but this of course would vary on what size box you pick and also the size of your eyes. I hope your family and friends enjoy this little box 🙂 Happy crafting!

  2. That is pretty cute. You can put your iPhone and iPod in your Eye Box! LOL! I liked the Eye Die also for the kids. Some great eye-deas.
