Frequently Asked Questions
How long do you need to keep your hands in the mold?
We recommend that you keep your hands submerged for around 5 - 6 minutes.
What materials are used for the sculptures?
Our sculptures are crafted from plaster, and if desired, they are finished with a paint coating.
What happens if we wiggle or shift position while being molded?
If the hand stays submerged and fully covered by the molding material during the setting phase, slight wiggling or movement won't impact the final mold. However, it's best to maintain stillness for the last 5-10 seconds for optimal results.
Are the sculptures fragile?
While our sculptures are made of durable plaster designed to last a lifetime, they can break if dropped. We advise handling them with care to ensure their longevity.
Is the molding material safe for newborns, babies and kids?
Absolutely! Our molding material, alginate, is derived from seaweed. It's completely safe for children and babies, as it's non-toxic, hypoallergenic, and biodegradable, ensuring a gentle experience on the skin.
Alginate is widely used in medical and dental fields due to its safety and effectiveness. Specifically formulated for creating intricate and high-quality molds of body shapes and objects, it provides a reliable and worry-free casting experience.
To further ensure your peace of mind, we recommend conducting a sensitivity test by mixing ½ teaspoon of alginate with ½ teaspoon of water and applying it to your skin if you have any concerns.
Can I apply additional decorative elements to the sculpture after it's finished?
Yes, you can personalise your sculpture further by adding embellishments such as beads, ribbons, or paint details after it has fully cured.
Do your kits come with instructions?
Yes, our kit instructions can be found on the relevant product pages in downloadable formats, we also provide instructions with each kit.
You don't need any experience at all. Our kits are beginner-friendly with step-by-step guidance.
Is the casting process messy?
The casting process is relatively neat, but we recommend covering surfaces and wearing old clothes to prevent any accidental spills or drips.
Is it possible to create a paw cast sculpture of a pet?
While our kits are also designed for human hands, with careful positioning and assistance while using our pet sculpture kit, it is possible to create a paw cast for your furry friend.
How should I store the finished sculpture?
We recommend displaying your hand, foot or paw cast sculpture in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to preserve its integrity.
