3-D Sculptor

08 December 2006, Friday


Oh I'm so excited!! I've waited with great anticipation to collect this for many weeks now wondering how it will turn out. Wanna see what we did for our little prince? Read on....

I stumbled upon 3-D sculpturing for babies and adults via The Baby Loft. The concept is not new, I'm sure most of you have seen this before in shopping malls where you could dip your hand into wax and voila, no sooner than 5 minutes, you've encasted your hand.

And the result……………

We absolutely lurved it. Aiden was 18 weeks when we got his foot and hand (fist) encasted. You could always do it for new-born, I thought that would have been nice. And the lady sculptor was very nice, because the first time Aiden had his hand molded, it didn’t quite come out right, and she patiently did it all over again. The material or clay (felt more like plastersine) used for molding is really soft as we could see all the fine lines on his foot and hand, including his nails too.

I would recommend for those who would like to have a keepsake of their child, as this is also the only time you could see their tiny fingers and toes. It’s that feeling that you have being a first time parent (mum or dad) and you want to do almost anything and everything for your baby. *guilty*

I had forgotten to take my camera along to capture the process...aiyo really regret liao.
