My hubby made a modification to Zang's eyelids that works rather well. The post about it is here at TDF http://dollforum.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=37885.

But the basic jist of it is, he took a glue stick like used for photos, and put 2 layers on the back of the eyelids to stiffen them and make them bendable so they will stay in shape. Then after that dried, he used rubber cement for arts and crafts (no industrial type please!) and painted 4 thin layers over the dried glue, letting each coat dry. Rubber cement stays tacky after it dries, so the eyelids stay in place well at night and don't shift or fall off. They pull off easily using a fingernail under the eyelid, and does not leave any reside behind.

If there are any skin oils on the eyes, they will need to be cleaned off with an alcohol wipe or the eyelids will not stick.

Love and Kisses,

Andrea Rose
