Welcome to ArizonaDo Designs: Handmade Details for Crochet & Plush Artists
If you love crochet, amigurumi, and handmade plush creations, you’re in the right place. ArizonaDo Designs was created to bring unique, high-quality details to makers who want their projects to stand out — from handpainted safety eyes to felt face pieces and embellishments designed specifically for crochet artists.
This blog is a space where I’ll share behind-the-scenes looks at new designs, tips for working with safety eyes and felt details, inspiration for plush makers, and updates on upcoming releases. Whether you sell finished plushies, crochet for fun, or design patterns, my goal is to support your creative process with supplies that are expressive, reliable, and made with care.
Handmade Safety Eyes Designed for Plush Makers
One of the most popular items at ArizonaDo Designs is my handpainted safety eyes. Each pair is carefully painted to create expressive, kawaii-inspired looks that work beautifully with amigurumi and crochet plushies. Many of my safety eyes are sinker style, meaning they sit flush with the plush once fully inserted, giving your finished piece a clean, professional appearance.
These eyes are designed with makers in mind — from size options to colorways that photograph well and complement a wide range of yarn choices.
Felt Face Pieces & Crochet Embellishments
In addition to safety eyes, I also create felt face pieces and embellishments for crochet patterns. These pieces are often designed to fit specific pattern styles and are lined for easy attachment using hot glue. They’re perfect for makers who want to save time while still achieving a polished, detailed look in their plush work.
Many of these designs are inspired by popular character aesthetics and themes, while remaining craft-friendly and handmade with care.
Why I Started ArizonaDo Designs
ArizonaDo Designs started with a simple idea: crochet artists deserve better details. As a maker myself, I know how much the eyes and facial features matter. A small change in eye placement, color, or shape can completely transform a plush’s personality.
Every product in this shop is created with that attention to detail in mind — tested on real plush builds, photographed honestly, and described clearly so you know exactly what you’re getting.
