Baby Foot & Hand Prints

Baby Foot & Hand Prints

For this project you will need a willing baby and a little plastic tray.

What you need

Plaster of paris
Plastic disposable tray

Instructions

The lid off a take away container works well. Make sure the tray is deep enough, it should be at least 1/4-1/2 an inch deep.

Follow the instructions on your Plaster-Of-Paris as each brand has different directions.

Pour the plaster into the mold. Tap the mold several times to expel any air bubbles.

Then push the babies hand or foot into the plaster to make an impression.

If it is unsuitable, tap the mold and try again, but work quickly or the plaster will set.

Wash babies hands and feet straight away!
