Love the deerhound and the beautiful coat on the shelty. You did such a wonderful job on all your sculptures.
Would you mind giving us a guide to the size of eyes to purchase for each size animal? I mean
” for one inch use ? sized eyes, up to three inches use? sized. 3 to 5 inches use ? size.” ect.
I wanted to order from the seller you have listed but am overwhelmed by the options!! Thanks marsha kay

Hi Marsha,
Thank you for your kind words on my dog sculptures! I use the same size eye as the inched in height generally speaking. So I use 2 mm eyes in 2 inch, 3 mm in a 3 inch, 4 mm in 4 inch, 5 mm in a 5 inch, etc.
Of course some breeds have larger eyes like a shih tzu or smaller eyes like chow…see photos.
It’s good to have a couple of sizes, at least so you can see how they look. I get the ones on wire, and cut the wire to about 1/4 inch so I can stick it in the head to see if the size is right. Be sure to check that they line up before gluing. I get my glass eyes from glasseyesonline.com
Please tell him Gerry sent you!
