Frequently Asked Questions
Question 1. What Process is involved?
The process
involves taking an impression of the hand or foot using a moulding material. It is totally
safe and non toxic and therefore harmless, giving a highly detailed individual piece of
art, unique to your child.
Question 2 Is it uncomfortable to take the cast?
Not at all, the casting process is completely
safe and can even be fun! We use a fast setting material which takes around 30 seconds to set, it then simply peels
away to leave a highly detailed mould.
Question 3. How are casts displayed?
Your casts will be finished
in a highly durable ground stone which is then hand painted in gold, silver or bronze at your choice. Your unique piece of
art will then be displayed in a hand crafted 3D Box frame in an oak style finish.
Other frames are available - please discuss.
Question
4. How long does it normally take to complete the casting?
We can normally take the mould within
7 days, the process then takes approximately 2-4 weeks to complete.
Question
5. Can I have more than one child’s hand or foot in a frame?
Yes,
that’s no problem. Please email or ring with the number of children you would like us to cast and
their ages and we will discuss this with you and give you a quote.
