We did a hand/foot mold with a frame from KeaBabies when our son was 6 *weeks* for his baptism pictures and it turned out great, and we were excited to try this one too for his 1/2 birthday to see how he's grown! Our sweet little guy is about to start solids, where'd my little newborn go?! I'm glad that this kit has enough space for hand/footprints for an older baby. The sample picture in the frame even says "Liam 6 Months.Some tips: Wait to buy until you need it! The clay in the first kit we used was fresher and turned out nicer, whereas I've had this one for a few months and it didn't turn out quite as nice (less detail, dried out faster) I recommend kneading the clay just until it's malleable enough to put in the frame, you want it a little cool. 3-5 minutes gets it too warm and you can't get the details of the hand/footprints**Work FAST! Make sure the letters are prepped in advance and your baby is ready to go. Don't waste too much time trying to get the clay perfectly neat in the frame, just iron chef it. I recommend getting the handprint first while your baby is asleep, if they wake up before you get the footprint it's fine, the footprint is easier. I wasn't fast enough and the clay started to crack as you can see in the picture. The clay is very wet out of the bag so make sure your hands are clean and your sleeves are pulled up. This is a delicate operation. The letter board is super easy and looks great! I definitely recommend scissors over hands to get the letters out, especially the full words. There's plenty of space for photos too.

I don't have a newborn anymore but this was fun to do with my 1 year old. I love having my little ones hand/foot prints to see how tiny they were. This set has everything to do it and more!

I love the baby handprint memory boxes, and the added little sign space on this one is SO cute! It's amazing quality, very well made and sturdy. The prints are really easy to make, and they take a couple days to fully dry. I love looking at my babies tiny hands and feet, and I know I'll love having this memory in the future.

I got this for putting my kids' handprints on, as well as my cat's paw print. It was not too hard to do, however the clay does smell a bit weird. Doing the names with the yellow stamps was a pain, as you have to cut out all of the letter boxes, as snapping them apart will not be enough, there can't be any extra tabs attached to them when sliding into the stamping bar. The letters and words for the message board are okay, and I do like that there are a lot included. There are also paints and paint brushes for adding an extra special touch after the clay has dried. I am currently in the clay drying stage, but I am pretty pleased with how it has turned out so far and glad that the space was large enough to fit all the hand and paw prints that I had wanted to. With my experience thus far, I would recommend this handprint keepsake and I think it would make a great gift.

This picture frame is so so cute!! The handprint was a little difficult to get with a wiggly newborn but it came out super cute. Instructions are easy to follow and simple. The quality is great. Definitely recommend

Everything you need in one box! This set has it all. Easy to use and we love that it has a letterboard to put any saying we want. Nice neutral color and will be a nice keepsake to have and remember how little baby was. Love the idea of having actual molded prints instead of just ink prints!
Haley
Everything about this product was perfect although you have to get the paw print perfect on the first 2 tries and it starts to dry.

This keepsake frame is thoughtfully made and such a great gift for any expecting parent. I was pleasantly surprised when I opened the box. I appreciated that there were various words in cursive that can be added in the felt area which makes it very cute and adds a slightly fancy touch. The sonogram windows are a bit small so I had to make a smaller copy to make it fit. The hand and foot print is the best part of the whole set. It was a bit difficult to get it made since my baby just wanted to close her hand and curl her toes but it ended up looking great. Highly recommend!

I love this! This one is different than others that you may have seen or used. The quality of this footprint/handprint kit is excellent. It is very easy to use. After doing the print make sure you put this up untouched for at least 4-6 days so that the clay dries.Such a wonderful gift to make then give to grandparents as they would cherish as I have.

The KeaBabies Baby Hand and Footprint Kit is an easy way to create a keepsake to treasure. The kit's wood frame is well made, and the glass cover is a nice touch. The letters are black, so I had to paint them white [paint is included] which was a bummer. Making the casting was a bit tricky, but overall, it is a general neutral kit that would be a great baby shower gift.
Karen
This is made really well. This comes with everything described. The price is really great for the item. Would be a perfect gift for a shower
Aaron
Decent kit. It comes with more than I expected. We used this for my child and a pet. No issues with anything so far.
Katlyn Taylor
Casting was easy to make. Sign is cute when put together. I had more letters from previous boards so I can make mine say more. Personalized photos make the board even better.

This is a lovely frame for mounting a baby or pet print! I like it better than the ornament-style hand/footprint kits because of the modern-looking frame with space for words or a picture. Even the place for the clay print could be used as a picture frame if we ever want to switch up the display.As noted, it comes with black letters to use on the letterboard instead of the pictured white letters. It's not a big deal, we kept the black letters but they could be spray-painted if white was really desired. The clay fits into a grooved frame which was a little difficult to flatten perfectly with the included wood rolling pin because the roller was not wide enough to reach the edges of the frame. I ended up using our kitchen rolling pin instead and it worked better.

This frame is super cute It would make a great gift It is very easy to do the DIY footprint or handprint or both!

This kit includes a premium wood picture frame with real glass cover and felt letterboard, baby-safe air-dry clay, multi-colored paint, 2 brushes, roller, 2 alphabet sets and 9 fancy phrases. It makes an elegant keepsake and can be versatile in use. Can be displayed either on a table top or hung on a wall. Makes a thoughtful gift.

The Baby Hand and Footprint Kit with Felt Letterboard makes the perfect baby gift! This also works great for birth announcement photos. The alphabet set came with all of the letters that we needed and were secure once inserted into the letterboard. The foot/handprint kit was surprisingly easy to use and did not get baby too messy at all. The set is completely gender neutral which is perfect when not knowing the gender. This set is very reasonably priced and is very memorable!
Connie
What a lovely keepsake. Easy to use. Very stylish & modern.
Paula
I can't wait to use this when our next little one joins the family! What a great keepsake! Foot prints, hand prints and a message board you can personalize! This would make a fantastic shower or new baby gift as well. Awesome product.

I was very impressed with this set. It has so much included to really personalize your design.In addition to lots of plain and fancy lettering for the felt board side, there are also impression letters so you can also add names or sayings to the Clay side by impressing the letters into the wet clay. It even has a little tray for lining up the letters before you press them in, so you can be sure they mark evenly spaced. There are paints included so you can paint the clay after it is dried, or you can paint the letters you plan on using on the felt side. I was so impressed with this set that I plan to use for my pup, that I bought a second set to give as a baby shower gift later this year. This definitely will make a very impressive and welcome gift.

This kit has everything you need to make a wonderful keepsake. The stamp and stamp holder are a nice touch, so you won't have to write in the clay. However, the words and letters are not white as shown (and white paint isn't included, so it's not just that they painted it white). They are black, which will be fine for us and isn’t a deal breaker, but I mention it just in case that doesn't go with your decor.Also, be aware of the size. I included a pencil in the photo for size. You won't get an older child's handprint in there. I planned to use it to help my granddaughters (a very small 4-year-old and a small 18 month old) make a joint Christmas gift for their parents, but I don't think I'll be able to get both of their handprints in without overlap. An infant's hand and footprint would fit in it together, but much older than about six months and it'll be one or the other.I will still use this, but I'll need to get creative about how to fit both kids in. If I can get the preschooler to keep her fingers closed, it might work.

I bought this as a gift, so I can't speak to ease of use of the clay, but the set does come with everything that is advertised. The frame is quality. Very giftable!

This is a very well made frame and felt heavy & sturdy. I love that it came with the lettering to customize. I got this for my family friend baby shower and she fell in love with it. She was happy to know that she will always have the imprints of her baby's feet and hand as baby forever. Definitely a good baby shower gift especially for mothers expecting their first born.
