Platters, Plaques, Stepping Stones, Wall Hangings Since platters and plaques have a larger surface area, they require more clay and glaze. They also have a higher chance of cracking in the kiln. I recommend a mold be made of your prints just in case. Cost per platter and plaque are as follows: 20.00 per print plus 20.00 under 8 or 30.00 for 8-12 or 40.00 for 12 plus Extra pricing includes under 4 colors, patterns, shaping, and any special instructions 5
Single Prints We can print anything you d like! Animal prints are no exception. Cost of a single print with one color is $20.00. Smaller hands work better for ornaments as larger hands and feet tend to get pretty heavy. Add an extra $5.00 for color and lettering. Single prints can be mounted together on wood as a wall hanging. 6
Home Impression Making Guide If you are out of our area and would like to make an impression, follow these guidelines and we can get your print poured and created. This method takes an extra few weeks to create since the plaster molding material has to be poured into your print. 1. Purchase Crayola model magic material. I have found it is the BEST material for impressions can be found at Wal-Mart, Hobby Lobby, and Micheal s. I do not purchase this and mail it out anymore due to the high number or nonserious inquiries we get. It also cuts down on your cost. Make sure you buy enough to make a deep impression. 2. Flatten your Crayola Model magic with a rolling pin or the palm of your hand forming a pancake shape. Place it on a piece of plastic wrap or wax paper. Use warm water to smooth any cracks in the top of the print. Press your child s or animal s paw, hand, or foot into the center of the modeling material making sure you press firmly and deeply so that plaster can be poured into the print evenly. If for some reason it messes up, fold it back together and start over.. 3. Once your prints are made, set them still on the plastic wrap and sit out over night to harden a little bit. 4. Place your print inside a Tupperware container, close. Fill out the form below and email me so I can give you and address and so that I ll know to be expecting your prints. Please mail priority so we get them quickly. If you are doing more than one thing, you only need to make prints of one hand, foot, etc. The plaster mold can be reused each time. Once I receive your impressions, I ll give you a call and double check your order. If you have any problems, please call and I will do my best to walk you through the process. Thanks, Janice 601.519.5562 info@claymoontile.com 7
