Etsy 

6060eyes began over 17 years ago selling on Etsy. We happily continued with Etsy until March 12, 2024 when they summarily suspended our store and then denied our appeal. We never received a detailed explanation as to why this was done; only generic bot-driven responses.  Etsy also unilaterally refunded any pending order where our customer used the Etsy Convo feature to enquire about the status of the order after receiving emails from Etsy that we had ceased operations.  This was not our doing and we apologize to our customers who suddenly found their orders with us cancelled. Fortunatley about 9 years ago we realize all of our eggs were in the Etsy basket and that represented a threat to our security as an online business, so we opened this website to ensure we could continue serving our customers.  We are glad we did!  We want our customers to know 6060eyes is not going away and will continue accepting orders on this website and eventually other non-Etsy platforms. Sadly, our Etsy days are now in the past, but we are always looking to the future!

PayPal 

When we started this website PayPal was one of several pre-integrated payment options available with the site's template.  Over the years the other options have fallen out of favor or are no longer viable. PayPal has thus become the main payment option for the site and the only one still integrated with the shopping cart/checkput process.  We understand PayPal is not not everyone's preferred way of making payments and some may desire alternative methods.  Until recently, our Etsy shop fulfilled that role for us. We are now looking at alternatives that we can integrate into this site's template. In the mean time, we offer Venmo and Cash App as alternatives to PayPal.  Customers may always contact us to work out other payment methods as well. Please understand that checks and money orders will substantially affect how long it takes to ship your order.

Cat Eyes or Round Eyes?

6060eyes has website sections devoted to Cat Eyes and Round Eyes. Each one has unique hand painted designs and factory colors, yet as you browse the site you'll find that most of our hand painted designs and color options are available in both types of eyes. There are some exceptions, however, such as the transparent painted cat eyes, which are only available as cat eyes, and our spider eyes, or starfall eyes, which mostly only come in round eyes.  We originally divided the site to accomodate the designs unique to one type of eye, but since so many of the designs apply to both types that distinction is almost misleading. We hope you will browse both sections while searching for that perfect match for your special creations. You can choose round or cat eye options at checkout for all listings available in both types.

What's New?

After all the craziness of the past two years, it's nice to feel like we're back on track with the release of over 20 new designs and design variations.  Check out the new rainbow designs, Swirly eyes, and the added varieties of Tiger eyes, Candy eyes and more! 

Rainbow Rise eyes are a fun, bright and colorful addition to our line.  The design has a burst of colorful stripes starting from a central yellow line and radiating on both sides of the yellow line through the color spectrum; ending with green stripes half way down circumference of the eye. A pure white bottom half completes the design.  We're only offering these in 12mm, 15mm and 18mm round eyes for the time being.  If you prefer smaller sizes, drop us a line and let us know. 

Another addition to the rainbow themed eyes are these Pastel Rainbow Swirly Eyes.   The are a softer yet still striking design variation of our popular Rainbow Swirly Eyes.  We offer them in both cat and round eye types and in a variety of sizes.  While the product photo may show a mis-matched pair you'll get a matching set of whichever eye type you prefer.  Check them out and let us know how you put them to use by dropping us a line or visiting our facebook page

Celebrate the harvest with these adorable pumpkin harvest eyes.  Like all of our custom painted eyes, each pair will be hand-painted to order.  Pumpknin Harvest eyes blend darker orange stripes over a lighter yellow-orange background, complete with a small twisting stem sporting a little green leaf. While we offer them in cat eyes, we feel they look much better with round pupils and are sure to give a warm and cozy finishing touch to your harvest-themed creations.  We offer them in a variety of sizes here, in our Halloween themed Zombie Eyes section that also includes bat eyes, zombie eyes and our popular spider eyes.  If you want some tricks with your treats, cheeck out the glow in the dark options for many of these designs.

As long as we're on a harvest theme, let's harvest some blueberries!  This delicious pair of eyes was inspired by our Peppermint Candy design, but since it didn't quite match any of the Christmas candy that inspired that design (or other Christmas Candy themed eyes) we decided to call them Blueberry Candy eyes and just pretend it did! No matter how we came up with the name, the design is still striking and offers a nice variation over traditional factory shades of solid blue eyes. We offer them in both cat and round eye types and in a variety of sizes.   

Let's not forget the design that started it all.  Clara's Magic In Your Eyes design remains popular even after 15 years.  She's painted every single pair we've ever sold!  The design comes in 9 color variations: Bubblegum pink with yellow dots, Ice blue with red dots, plum purple with yellow dots, forrest green with yellow dots, mint green with red dots, dark blue with yellow dots (pictured left), chocolate brown with yellow dots, champagne white with pink dots and moss green with red dots. They are both elegant and whimsical and proudly adorn thousands of the most creative pieces of art our customers can create.  They can be found here.

Do you have a design or color combination in mind that we don't already offer? Let us know what you want and we'll try to accomodate your request.  You may also suggest alternative color combinations for our current designs that better fit your needs.  Just let us know what you need and we'll do our best to deliver. 

We're sorry to report we've had to increase our postage rates once more as of October 5, 2022. We do not pad our postage rates with profit so we can advertise what appear to be better prices for our product.  We do, however, include an allowance to cover the cost of supplies and materials needed to ship each package. Those considering placing a larger order should contact Clara to see about reduced rates. In general we offer reduced shipping to destinations within the United States for orders over $35, but our website won't automatically adjust the rates.  Please contact us for more information.

Our website includes a blog feature that we've been playing with as a way to highlight projects some of our customers have produced.  We are honored to be a recommended source of eyes for many talented pattern designers.  We love to see how our eyes are put to use--especially the hand painted ones. Most of the blog posts are highlights of posts from our facebook page.  Stop by and let us know what you've been creating.
