Niimo3D Baby Casting Kit - Skin-Safe & Non-Toxic Baby Hand and Foot Casting Kit with Paints, Personalised Keepsake, Gifts for New Mums & Dads

This was for my sons art project and as its not the cheapest I told him he had one shot at this to make it work. It worked a treat , followed the instructions to the T and it turned out so well. We did watch a few utube videos just to be sure. It did take longer to dry but he completed this in the coldest room to enable more time to work with the mould first. My electric mixer had died so instead we used an old blender i use for mixing paint and it worked a treat. This kit is great value for money.Top tips - cooler room gives you more time to mix without it settingTap bucket to get rid of bubblesGive it plenty of time for the plaster to dryMake sure your comfortable first when putting your hands in the mould so that you stay as still as possible.

Easy instructions, the bucket is a little on the smaller side to fit 2 hands in. Cast did turn out great though, I love how it looks, captures great amount of detail.

As far as casting kits go, this definitely does the job! The process is simple but it's important to prepare as the alginate does dry quickly. After mixing the alginate we submerged our clasped hands, waited approximately 10 minutes to be sure, then gently removed. After washing the cast with water we drained it, mixed the cast mix and filled it. Tapping the sides is really important to avoid bubbles. However our cast did have lots of bubbling on the back of my husbands hand. I have tried my best to remove these carefully with the wooden pick provided, a needle and sanding it.The kit is fantastic and it was really quite an emotional experience peeling back the set alginate to reveal our hands. The detail is incredible, as you can see in my pics, even fingerprint ridges! My engagement ring also looks wonderful.Take your time with the process and be patient. It's worth it!

I bought this for my Mum for Christmas so she would always know I was beside her holding her hand. Her health has gone downhill dramatically since then, and she’s now having end of lifeNursing care in a home. It took us months to do it, but I’m so glad we managed to do it yesterday, and that she has my hand, and I’ll always have hers when she passes. The reviews worried me it would end up awful, but the reality is lovely. My thumbnail broke in the cast process - not sure how - but I’ll file it and tidy it up. Very happy it worked and didn’t turn out a sloppy mess as some reviews said.

Got this for my first wedding anniversary and I love it 🥰 looks better than I expected just do what the instructions say great value for the price and bigger than expected

A complete waste of money, time and effort. These kits don’t work they’re very poor quality and don’t come with everything you need I.e mixing bowls so you have to ruin your own.The most complicated process with so many steps, don’t waste your money

Omg this is absolutely brilliant!! I bought this to do a hand sculpting with my mum I can't believe just how good the finished sculpture is. It's so easy to do, Just read the instructions & do the test sculpture first so that you get an idea of the proving timings. Both Mum & I are so pleased with how it has come out especially for mum as it picked up all details of a cameo ring that she was wearing which was originally her mums. This is the perfect keepsake & I definitely think it's worthy of its 5/5 star rating. Give it a go you won't be dissapointed.

I think the kit is good - easy to use, pre measured powders etc. but ours was delivered without the paint or sandpaper or detailing tools, and one of the containers was cracked, all of which I only realised after making the first cast 🙃
