Memory Makers and Keepsakes

As your child grows, you will look at new babies and wonder whether yours was ever that tiny. Well, they probably were, it's simply that time passes so quickly we soon forget how teeny those fingers and toes used to be.

I take clay impressions from babies aged 2 weeks and over, so now you can capture those precious prints forever. In years to come your child will love to measure their hands against their impressions to see how much they have grown.

I use very soft clay, and taking the impressions is relatively quick, but the overall process does take on average 4 - 6 weeks. The clay does need to dry very sowly before its first firing, and then will need a second firing once the colour/glaze has been added. So, if you are ordering as a gift, be sure to allow enough time for me to work my magic.

You can choose to have your finished impressions as a hanging plaque or framed. I have a choice of colours and frames which can be discussed at your appointment.

Most importantly, I do need to see you and your child or children to take clay impressions, so please contact me for an appointment.

Choice of plaque shape can also be decided on the day impression is taken.. Square, rectangular, circular, heart or organic.

Please note: These prices are geared for babies and toddlers. If larger hands and feet are desired, an additional charge will be added for the extra clay needed.

Clay impressions are not just for babies though. I take impressions from all age ranges, including adults. Having impressions of siblings; where two or more children are captured together or entire families is an option.

The price of multiple impressions (siblings, family groups) will increase by £10 per additional impression.

Not only are impressions of babies, children and adults hands and feet on offer, I can also offer clay impressions of your beloved four legged family members.

The process and timescale of paw impressions is the same as stated above for baby hand and foot impressions.
