Hey, Nate, what pattern did you use for your avatar...or is it your own?
Very nice puppet!

Hiya Sara

She is made from a modified version of the roly pattern from project puppet-- I made it bigger, changed the shape a little, and added more foam to create a chin and fuller lip area. The body is made in foam from a pattern I found here that I made a little more curvy and added breasts to The hair is the crown area of a cheap wig that I carefully snipped out. And thanks for the compliment! I rather like yours as well, very cute and well-made

The shirt on the puppet is made from a child's small shirt, I used a shirt tutorial from PuppetLady here to create a bell-sleeved shirt for her then added the iron on jewels Everything on the puppet is hand sewn, I don't know how to use a sewing machine yet without destroying stuff! lol

Very nice!  I love her! 
Right now, I'm trying to turn out as many as possible, without all the extras, but I would love to create one custom made soon too.
Great work
Sara

Thanks again she's my favorite right  now although I do have a creature puppet I'm working on right now that's kind of Fraggle inspired. I'm tentatively calling them Zoox until something better strikes me

In case others are wondering I will answer some of the questions you originally brought up. Previously I believe their minimum was 1000, but when I've ordered its been 500. Pricing ranges between 20 to 50 cents a piece. They are happy to send out samples for if you ask, and they can also send a catalog.

Thanks, Matt!
Is that 500 of one kind, or can you mix and match?  Also, is it 20-50 cents per eye, or pair?
LOL!  Sorry about the inquisition!  Haha!

Sara,
     I believe the price is per eye. Ask for Bill at Mercury he handles the costs.  I sell one style of comic eyes http://www.outoftheboxpuppets.com/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=126.  I also have a "Cookie Monster" style eye that I haven't listed yet.  I use them on my Ohmy Puppets. http://www.outoftheboxpuppets.com/index.php?act=viewProd&productId=8.
