What's Inside Our Couple Casting Kit?
Our Couple Casting Kit is a DIY home casting kit that makes a sculpture of a couple’s hands held together. The kit contains all the materials you need to carry out a casting, along with a detailed instructions booklet. The brilliant thing about this gift is that it brings you and your partner together for a creative activity – if you're old enough, think Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze in THAT sizzling scene in Ghost! It only takes an hour to create the hand cast – leaving you with a stunning sculpture you can marvel at for years to come.
Is It Easy To Make A Couple Hand Cast?
Hand casting with our Couple Casting Kit is really easy. Even if you're not a 'crafty' type, just follow the instructions in the kit and you will get a great result. Our booklet has been written by professional casters and we think they've covered everything! We've just it translated into Spanish, French, German and Italian, we're determined to make the casting process easy to follow and accessible for all!
To make the mould, mix seaweed-based alginate with water and watch it turn into a gloopy pink jelly. Choose a hand hold that reflects your relationship (classic clasp, or pinky promise?), plunge in your hands, and wait 2-3 minutes for the mould to turn from pink to whitish grey.
One you’ve wiggled your hands free, mix up stone powder and water, then pour into the mould. It takes a few minutes to rock ‘n’ roll the bucket to make sure the stone mixture gets into every nook and cranny. Afterwards, wait 30 minutes for the stone to set. Upturn the bucket, release the mould, and peel away alginate until the ‘Big Reveal’ is complete.
