Baby Impression Techniques
Raised Baby Hand and Foot Impressions
Simple! You take your baby's impression in our dough (or you can use magic mallow) giving you a little footprint in the dough. You can then pour in the plaster using our plastic frame we provide as a template. Let it set and there you have your beautiful impression to cherish forever!
Mallow Baby Hand and Foot Impressions
Well, what can I say about this impresson technique! Roll your magic mallow out, take your baby's hand or foot impression. Cut to shape and allow to dry for a few days. Paint and mount if required!
Clay Baby Hand and Foot Impressions
At the moment we are unable to offer this as a kit so to get a clay imprint of your little ones hands and feet simply hold a keepsake party or visit your nearest consultant and we can do it for you! You can't get easier than that!
Top Baby Impression Tips
Getting your baby's hands and feet to open up
Simply stroke the back of your little one's hands or feet to relax them and then quickly press into the dough or clay.
How can I get a good clear impression
You can always press harder than you think - you are pressing against something soft so you won't hurt - your baby will always tell you when you are pressing too hard anyway!
When the hand or foot is on the dough or clay work down each finger pressing it into the material. Then gently wiggle the wrist - not so hard that it moves but it should create a little bit of weight to press the palm down. This should get better results than just one firm push!
