Babies That Fit Inside The Palm Of Your Hand By Camille Allen

Canadian artist Camille Allen has a rather unusual hobby and an impressive skill to match it. She handcrafts miniature clay sculptures of newborn babies that can fit inside the palm of your hand.

It’s a skill the 35-year old artist learned from her grandmother-in-law, who was also making baby sculptures, except those were life-size. But when Camille started, she didn’t have enough clay for that, so she made miniature versions: “ When I held the first tiny baby sculpture in my hand I fell in love with it. I have been making the miniature babies ever since. “

“ I love creating something that didn’t exist before, ” said Camille to Daily Mail. “ My favorite part is sculpting their little faces from basically a blank ball of clay. “

If you want to hold these cuties in your hand, you can order your tiny baby from the artist’s website .
