The wall of tiny humans.

"My son in his goggles. He has decided it is his lab assistant and it sits by every experiment."

"The whole team on one base for her last day. Nobody expected the room to go that quiet."

"My daughter and her cat on one base. She keeps it on the shelf right above her bed."

"Five of us, one base, one very happy bride. The photos from that night are unhinged."

"She had me done with my socket wrench. It sits on the toolbox and the lads take the mick daily."

"The crew got it for my twentieth year. Nozzle, boots, the lot. It lives in my locker."

"My coworker ordered it behind my back. Now every client who walks in gets shown the tiny me."

"Thirty two years together and now there are two tiny us on the coffee table."

"She dances six days a week. Seeing herself in clay was the first time she said wow about herself."

"Six years of book club and finally something to show for it. Tiny us, tiny books."

"Brought clay Koda to the dog park to meet real Koda. Real Koda was unbothered. I was not."

"Us with the bump, in clay, before the baby even arrived. Now we need the sequel."

"Held it while I was still in my robe getting ready. Best thing I looked at all morning."

"Pan in hand, exactly how I stand. My mother in law ordered it and I have never liked her more."

"My son saved up and had me done from an old photo. I did not know what to say, so I said nothing."

"Raincoats and all, because that is our entire relationship. We stood on the porch laughing at it."

"First in our family to graduate. We gave it to her the second we got home and the house went quiet."

"Five of us who have been friends since school, now four inches tall. Took it straight to the park."

"All three of us, including the dog who does not know she is a dog."

"All five of us on one base for his stag. He nearly dropped it laughing."

"Twelve hour shifts and she keeps tiny her by the bed. Says it makes the alarm easier."

"Two readers, one base, one very small stack of books. We took it to our favourite shop."

"She asked for her and Pepper together. Now she carries it to the stables like a passport."

"Four of us in kit, on one base. It travels to every match in somebody's bag."

"Titan and me at the fence, in clay. The mane falls exactly the way it really does."

"Forty one years married and this is the first thing that has ever made him cry."

"My kids ordered it for my birthday. It stands on the prep board watching me work, pastry in hand."

"She had it made from a photo I hate. Somehow the clay version looks better than I do."

"My grandmother, my mother and me on one base. That is the whole story right there."

"Held it up next to Bruno and the markings matched. Same face, same silly grin."

"Diploma in her tiny hand. Her grandmother held it the whole evening and would not put it down."

"My daughter in her cap, same head tilt and everything. It went round the picnic blanket all afternoon."

"Eighty two years old and I have never had anything like it. Me in my old jumper, holding a pot."

"My grandmother's face, right down to how she holds her chin. She said it looks like her own mother."

"Joined at the base, which is either romantic or a warning. It sits with us at breakfast."

"Got it for my son after the season ended. He took it to practice to show the entire team."

"Us and Lucero on one base. We carried it out to the gate where the real one was waiting."

"Her and all of us on one base for the big four zero. Best gift on that table by a mile."

"Unwrapped it at the counter at midnight. The face is so accurate it is almost rude."

"Me and my chair, on one base. Clients see it and book on the spot."

"My mum in her apron, exactly. She held it at the kitchen table for an hour before saying a word."

"First thing we unpacked in the new place. Boxes everywhere and we just stood there holding it."

"My ten year old opened it and screamed. Party dress, balloon, the gap in her teeth. All of it."

"Four of us, right down to my youngest refusing to stand still. Somehow they got that too."

"My daughter takes it to the yard every weekend. Milo remains completely unimpressed."

"It sat on the top table all night. More guests photographed it than the cake."

"They sculpted Rosie's blaze from one blurry photo. I stood at the fence and lost it."

"A tiny me holding a tiny palette in my very messy studio. The detail on the brush is unreal."

"Whistle round her neck, arms crossed, exactly how she stands on the sideline. Coach cried."

"The two of us among the pots, where we actually spend our lives. Our daughter knew exactly."

"Nine years old, made of clay, sitting on the desk where she makes her own art. She is very pleased."

"All four of us, in birth order, in clay. Mum cried before she even got it out of the box."

"Me and Pickle on the step, in clay and in person. His ears are exactly right."

"Opened it while we were still getting ready. Bad idea, makeup wise. Worth it."

"Opened it in the car park because I could not wait. Sat there grinning at tiny me like an idiot."

"They caught my posture, which nobody catches. It sits on the studio floor while I rehearse."

"Thirty five years on the floor. We had him made in clay and the break room went silent."

"It rides with us in the camper. Two tiny travellers who never complain about the driving."

"My wife found it sitting on the kitchen table and just sat down. All three of us, right down to my son's sneakers."

"Helmet, kit, the whole stance. Friends got it after my first century ride and I cannot stop looking."

"A student gave it to me on the last day of term. It stays on the desk where I can see it."

"Took it to the park for its first photo. Yes, we are those people now."

"Mum in her garden clothes, watering can and all. I ran out in the rain to show the neighbour."

"Tiny me holding a tiny bouquet, in a shop full of real ones. Customers pick it up every single day."

"Bought it as a joke for his birthday. He has not stopped talking about it. Joke is on me."

"Five years, one small shelf, two tiny us. It is the first thing every guest notices."

"There is a tiny rolling pin. A TINY ROLLING PIN. It lives by the register now."

"Ten years of training and my brother sums me up in four inches of clay. Fair enough."

"My nurse gave it to me in the break room after a brutal week. Best thing on that counter."

"Us and the one plant we somehow keep alive. The balcony is complete now."

"Even the apron strings are right. She had me sculpted at my own bench and I am not over it."

"The kids had me done in my good suit. It sits by the recliner and every visitor picks it up."

"Forty years of him in that garden and finally something to put on the shelf. He went very quiet."

"Both of us in our house clothes, which is honestly the most accurate version of us there is."

"The team handed it to me on my last day. Thirty years, and they got the folder and the tie exactly."

"First woman in this shop, and now there is a tiny one on the shelf. Wrench and all."

"We put it on the prep counter and it has outlasted three menu changes."

"We work at the same desk, so now there are four of us. Two real, two clay."
