Re: eye -If you use the acrylic paint - use the end of a small paintbrush (not the brush end), shake the bottle and dip your tool in the cap of the paint bottle - not the paint bottle itself. There should be enough paint on the cap (from shaking it) to do the job. This gives you control of how much paint you pick up. One dip and dab should do the trick. Try it on scrap fabric first to get the feel of it.
