FAQs

Is the clay safe for my baby?

Yes, the clay is food-grade and 100% safe for newborns and babies. It is non-toxic and gentle on delicate skin.

Do I need to buy anything else to use this kit?

No, this is a complete all-in-one kit. It includes everything you need, such as clay, frame, paints, and personalization tools.

How long does the clay take to dry?

The clay typically takes 24-48 hours to air dry completely. Drying time can vary based on humidity and thickness.

Can I use this kit for my pet?

Yes, absolutely! This kit is also perfect for capturing adorable paw prints of cats or dogs.

How should I clean the frame and glass?

Use a soft, dry or slightly damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners to prevent damage.

What if I make a mistake while making the impression?

If you make a mistake before the clay dries, you can gently re-knead the clay and try again. Once dried, however, it cannot be redone.

Can I paint the clay impression itself?

The kit includes bonus paint and a paintbrush. You can use these to decorate the frame or carefully paint details onto the dried clay impression if desired.

Troubleshooting

Clay is too hard or crumbly

Knead the clay thoroughly. If still too dry, slightly dampen your hands before kneading. Add a tiny amount of water if necessary, but avoid making it sticky.

Impression is not deep or clear enough

Ensure the clay is rolled to an appropriate thickness. Press the hand or foot firmly and steadily into the clay. You can gently wiggle fingers or toes slightly to deepen the impression.

Clay is sticking to the baby's skin

Ensure the clay is soft and pliable. Lightly dust your hands or the baby's skin with a tiny amount of flour or cornstarch if sticking is a persistent issue.

Name/date stamps are not clear

Press the stamps firmly and evenly into the clay. Ensure the clay is smooth before stamping. You may need to practice on a spare piece of clay first.

Frame assembly is difficult

Ensure all parts are clean and dry. Carefully align the glass, the clay impression, and the backing before securing the frame sides.
