Safety eyes
Gold 9mm (solid black will be fine as well)

Wire
I use 14 gauge and I double it. The wire frame is used to make the clown posable and is optional

Wooden dowel
I use the one that comes in the fiber fill (used for head support)

Masking tape
I double my wire and put a layer of tape around it, if you purchase larger wire that does not need to be doubled, you do not need tape

Super Glue
I use this to secure the safety eyes, I do not use the backs.

Fiber Fill
One 16oz bag will be more than enough

Hooks
3.25 mm
3.5 mm
5 mm 

Using other materials may result in a different size. Be sure to check your gauge and adjust hook size to obtain the correct gauge. Gauge for different parts will be listed at the beginning of that section. My finished doll is approximately 21 ½ inches tall.
