In a special collaboration with Teeny Tinkers Dolls , these quirky, geeky round frames are now available. Modelled by Teeny Tinker's own BJD Hollow, these glasses fit most 1:4 scale ball jointed dolls (BJD's), dolls with wig size 6/7 or 7/8.
Pros of 3D Printed PLA Glasses:
- Printed in a softer coloured plastic, not painted, there is no worry of paint rubbing off and marking up faces.
- They are shipped flat for easier delivery.
- They are easily heated and moldable to fit your doll upon arrival to you! You get to do the shaping of the frames to fit your doll! You will receive pdf instructions emailed directly to you but see below for all the details.
- If you really wish to paint them you can use acrylic paint or enamel paints.
- You could decorate them with bling! After shaping them, feel free to use crazy glue to place some shiny crystals on your frames!
HOW THEY ARE MADE
- I designed these glasses specifically for Teeny Tinkers Dolls ball jointed doll!
- I 3D print them at home, They may fit other dolls as well see TIPS in How to Shape Them section below.
Now available in two versions, Flat-Bend at Home or Pre-Bent:
Flat-Bend at home: Saves on cost of shipping and you have the power to shape them to your doll's unique features for the best fit! You will also receive a practice pair of glasses to refine your technique. Watch the video below for a demonstration.
Pre-Bent: I'm happy to provide a pre-bending service for one pair of glasses and ship glasses in a more protected, slightly larger box for you.
They will come with a 90-degree bend in the arms and once received they can be slightly tweaked if required. Please view the video below for demonstrations.
HOW TO SHAPE THEM:
Please note: As these frames are very thin only a slight amount of heat is required to make them look fantastic on your doll!
Here is a video tutorial about how to shape the glasses using 3 methods of heat:
- straightening iron,
- blow dryer, or
- hot water.
PDF instructions will also be emailed once you order your glasses!
MEASUREMENTS:
- Scaled for most 1:4 scale dolls-See photos with measurements. Depending on where you place the bend, measurements can be tweaked for the best fit!
