Sculpt a Baby Out of Polymer Clay Guide #2: Eye Size Chart for "Awake" Babies

This guide will show you what size eyes you will need for your polymer clay baby. Some people sculpt their babies and then have no idea what sized eyes they will need. Refer to the following chart which will help and I have also listed a couple reputable sellers where you can then purchase the eyes from.

Human Eyes Size     1:2 Scale     1:3 Scale     1:4 Scale     1:6 Scale     1:8 Scale     1:12 Scale

24mm                          12mm         8mm            6mm            4mm            3mm            2mm

If you aren't familiar with metric measurements you can easily convert into inches by using this formula:

(size in milimeters) x .039 = (size in inches) 

When I sculpt "awake" babies I use the following: for 4" babies I use 4mm eyes, 3" babies use 3mm eyes, 2" babies use 2mm eyes. It's always best to use a ruler to measure what you will need. 

If you need to purchase eyes for your baby, here are some reputable sellers I recommend:

• morezmore (highly recommend!)
• hellogoddess
• cindylpb
