One for Each Kiddo
"I purchased this for my son when he was an infant, and we love the way it came out! We just purchased a second for our baby girl on the way, it only takes a few minutes to make. Our son loves to look at his own foot print now that he's a toddler!"

Love!
"I love this sweet, simple frame. It's been great in our daughter's room, and I plan to get another for our son due next year. The material to do the foot/hand print is easy to use."

bigger than expected
"I purchased two of these frames as gifts for my husband's co-workers. I thought it looked like something that could be set on a desk at work, but that is definitely not the case! The frames are much bigger than I expected from the picture on the website. Would be better for hanging on a wall at home or in a nursery, probably too big for the office."

Haven't found something better
"Was fairly easy to do but for me it just doesn't look great. The dough shows every little fingerprint (yours as well as babies) & fingernail nick. And we couldn't get the edges to look smooth. That being said though I haven't found anything better."

so cute
"i just love this! I saw it online and bought it right away. We didn't use the rolling pin (it sticks to the clay) but used our hands to press it out. I liked the free-form feel of the clay v. the right angles that the instructions tell you how to do. It's still drying but tomorrow it should be ready to go."

"Here are some "extra" steps I had to take to get the imprint to turn out:
1. After kneading the impression material in your hands, place on foil, then also place foil ON TOP, then roll out with the wooden pin. I found that using their directions (no foil on top) the material stuck to the pin.
2. Put a small amount of baby powder on baby's foot so that the impression material does not get stuck to baby's skin when you try to lift foot out. I tried 3 times without the powder and each time the heel came out with some of the material on it, ruining the impression. Also, try not pressing the heel in too far.
3. After letting the impression dry for 5 to 6 hours, bring the edge of it on to the edge of a counter top and pull foil down from underneath the impression so you're not actually touching it since it is still a little soft. Pull to halfway on one end, then switch and pull down from the other end, then flip onto a new piece of foil and carefully lift off the original foil where it is still attached in the middle.

Great Keepsake
"I ordered two of these frames for both grandfathers for Father's Day and they loved it. Such a special way to create a baby keepsake and easy to make. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is because the wood on one of the frames was chipped, but it was on the backside and too close to Father's Day for me to return/exchange."
