You should also enclose in your instructions "Do Not Put IN A Breezy Area, Will Cause Cracking" I had mine where my air conditioner was slightly blowing on it an caused it to dry at a faster rat , THUS causing it to CRACK.
I did a lot of research to find which one of these Handprint Kits was the best. This one has a heavy duty frame, instructions with pictures, real glass, and most important, it doesn't have Mold problems like most of the other handprint kits. It's a gift so I don't know the end result, but from my research I'm happy with the purchase.
Adorable keepsake. I got this for my 6 year old ad her dog who's terminal. We stamped her hand and her pups! Those two are bff's regardless. It's still drying but turned out great. The clay dries quickly so I recommend using the sellers olive oil trick. I didn't read that until after all was said and done. I redid it 3 times and still ended up with little ripples but that is from my daughter pushing (doubt this would happen with a sleeping baby). Worth every penny!
Worked as advertised. Clay is a bit like taffy so do not try to cut a name in the clay with a toothpick... you need to push in a series of holes in to make the words. Clay dried just fine with no cracks. I just left it in my house with the AC on at 72 degrees for 3 days and it was completely done. Looks good.
I made this using my 11 month old grandson for my daughter in law for Mother's Day. She absolutely loved it. Although it was very easy to make I still had a few small cracks as it was drying. I think you should include a little extra clay so that clay could be used to fix the cracks. Also, I had a hard time getting photos to fit the size of the openings. It would be better if there was a way to make the openings standard wallet size. Dispite these two things, I still love the picture frame and will be making a second one with my 6 month old grandson for his mother. I highly recommend this frame to any parent, grandparent, etc that wants a special momento to keep for years to come.

Baby handprint kit, baby footprint kit, baby decor, gift registry
My favorite keepsake of my baby to date. My only regret is not having it and doing the prints sooner.
Get this before your baby is born so you can capture those little prints ASAP. I’ll be purchasing some for baby shower gifts because what mama wouldn’t want to capture those precious little fingers and toes?!
Follow the directions, take your sweet time and make sure you clean your table or whatever surface you plan to do it on, because not only will we forever have our precious baby prints, but we’ll have some crap that was on our table that night too.
**EDIT**
I was contacted by the seller who sent me a replacement kit after hearing about my disappointment with the product. My second attempt turned out much better!! The clay does dry out very fast from the point of kneading to when you are smoothing it out with the roller. For me, the trick was to put a little olive oil in the clay (like the instructions suggest) and then kneading it in. This makes the clay a lot more moist and after pressing it into the frame you’re actually able to smooth out the surface and get it to look like the pictures of the product. I’m attaching a picture of my second mold, and revising my one star review to a five star for excellent customer service, even if the kit is mildly challenging to get to look just right.
I was super excited for this product and to get prints of my newborn’s tiny little hands and feet to remember forever. However, upon completion, I seem to have the same issue as others with being unable to smooth out the surface of the clay. No matter what I did, the surface stayed wrinkly. I’m very disappointed and I don’t think there’s any way to fix it. I tried emailing the company with the address they provided in the packaging but it was returned as undeliverable.
This was fun to do with our grand daughter. We wanted to surprise her parents for Christmas. She was 4 months old and trying to put her hand in the clay was funny. But overall it is a good product worth the money and memories are made and preserved. Quality and having the color guards blue, pink or white is a nice touch. You can choice what you want or need and it comes shipped in a very sturdy box. The clay was easy to mold and the instruction video was very helpful. Sorry I do not have a picture but maybe when I go over my daughters house I will take a picture and submit one. Thank you
I LOVE THIS PRODUCT!!! I also just got it 2 days early. There is plenty of clay for the handprint and footprint. It has directions on step by step how to use, extremely helpful!! It also comes with a frame with blue on one side and pink on the other for your boy or girl. It has white frame already installed if you want to get creative with the white and use it instead. I very much recommend this product!! Cannot wait to get my son's prints done. I have a couple friends having babies soon and I will be buying them each one of these as a gift!! Absolutly perfect. Very happy with my purchase and you will be too!!
Great customer service with personalized email from seller with expert hints and tips for making the keepsake in the most efficient way. Appreciated the tip to make the foot and hand prints when baby is asleep and I included all the tips provided to the new mommy who will be using this. Condition of the box was perfect and ready for gift wrapping. Little Hippo really takes the extra steps to make sure you are happy with the product and I would highly recommend them for their attention to customer needs!
