Hand Mold

I made a mold of Paige's hand! With the help of a couple friends. How many people does it take to make a hand mold? Three. One person has to hold the baby. One person has to hold the baby's hand. (mommy) One person has to hold the cup that has the 3-D Gel.


It was so much fun. I am trying to think of what else I can make a mold of. Maybe her foot. :)

Oh wow that's really cool! Does the gel set instantly or something?

so... the 3-D gel is a powder you mix with water then put whatever you want a mold of into it. In a matter of seconds it hardens (to a hardish jello consistency) then you pull out your object. Then you pour in plaster of paris, let it dry. Peel off the Gel and ta-da, you have a mold.
