Testimonial

"I am emailing you to thank you for the safe arrival of my casting kit. It arrived promptly this morning as promised. I would also like to say that I think the way it is wrapped and presented is beautiful, I think It shows a lot of care and effort has gone into it. It felt quite special to receive it, like getting a present from a friend! Thanks again."

Clay Impressions

Casting appointments can be planned with one of our nationwide approved casters.  Prices quoted are for a baby under 1 year and are for guidance only. Please discuss your requirements and the price with your recommended caster. A surcharge will be applied for Luxury Hardwood, Luxury Vintage, Deep With Pine Box and Coastal frames and engraved name-plates.

Choosing a frame

To help you decide which frame colour and paint combination to choose you can ask yourself a few questions, such as:


  • Where will I hang my frame - do I need to match it to the decor of an existing room?
  • Do I want to include a landscape or portrait photo in the frame?
  • How many 3D hand and foot casts/clay impressions do I want - 1, 2 or 4?
  • What combination of hands and feet do I want?
  • What size frame do I want? Our frames are measured in GLASS SIZE.
  • What colour should the frame rim be?
  • What colour should the casts/impressions be?
  • What colour should the front and back mounts be?
  • Do I want an under mount to create a stepped, two-colour effect for my front mount?
  • Do I want an engraved name-plate with my child's name and age? Which colour? Which font?
