Frequently Asked Questions

How do I get my babies or pets prints done?

Most imprint sessions are by appointment only. A £10 deposit will be taken upon booking, which can be used against any items you buy at your session. 1 session is suitable for a family with up to 4 children.

I am currently building a workshop where I will be able to take appointments, however until its built, if you are unable to make any of my sessions, or if you would like me to take prints in your home, please do get in contact so I can arrange getting your babies or pets imprints done! (Please note a charge applies for home visits if the cost of products ordered is less than £50)

What age is it for?

Literally any age! The youngest prints I’ve done were of 2 day old babies. I’ve done fingerprints of much older adults too. The youngest age for fingerprints ONLY is 6 months as I don’t find they come out very well defined.

Is it messy?

It’s not at all really. the clay is a bit like play doh. Babies hands might need a wee wipe afterwards but often they don’t even need that!

Does it hurt my baby?

No – but it is cold and your baby may not like it. Some babies are totally fine with getting prints done and some cry a lot! They usually stop within seconds after I’ve taken the prints though :)

How long does it take?

I have 10 minute appointments, but most of this time is spent deciding what colours / products you want! I take the actual prints in a few seconds!

How do I book?

Please have a look at the Events page for dates of imprint sessions, and details on how to book.

When will I get my prints back?

Prints will be returned within 5 to 6 weeks usually. You’ll receive a text when they are ready to be collated / posted.
