Baby Hand Print Casting

Posted by Kenny on March 10, 2009

Baby hand print casting is the art of having a cast made of your babies hands.  I don't know about you but I want to be able to relive my child's birth.  I want to relive the first years of my child being on this earth.  I also want to be able to share the first few years with family and my close friends.  A baby hand print casting kit gives me the option to provide a way to show others what a great infant newborn I have gained.

So how does a baby hand print casting work?

Casting is not a new craft.  Casting has been around since the roman era.  When plaster statues were erected to show the likeness of past and present leaders.  Even during this time it was common to have a infants feet or hands cast to commemorate the birth.  The baby handprint craft has not died in this time and age.  But it has expanded to casting the feet and to the belly cast of a pregnant mother.

Casting makes a great gift

What would make a grandmother more happy than having a mold cast done of there grand daughter or son hand.  Grand mothers love gifts of this sort.  It is a way for them to take home a part of the infant newborn.  It is also a great keepsake for them to show off to all of there friends.

Do's and Don't when purchasing a Baby hand print casting kit.

Don't get a kit that does not have a sturdy frame.  There are plenty of kits that just come with the plaster to create the mold of your child's hand.  Try to get a kit that comes with everything that you would need to make a quality casting.  Trying to find a frame that can fit the casting could be the hardest part of this entire process.  But if you get the right materials in the beginning, it should not any issues.
