Amazing!
I bought two buckets as gifts; one for my mom for motherâs day and one for my aunt for Christmas. This past weekend we got together and had a plaster party. My aunt held my grandmothers hand and I held my momâs hand. The instructions are very in depth and detailed, but thatâs to ensure that it turns out properly. The process took a bit of time but it was well worth it! They turned out amazing and the quality seems durable. The kit had tools as well for touch ups after you âdemoldâ it. I would absolutely buy again. This is a very sentimental item to cherish over time with loved ones.

Beautifully set in our home!
I recently purchased the Luna Bean Huge Oversize XL Family Hand Casting Kit, and it was an incredible experience for my family! This kit is perfect for capturing the unique bond between family members, as it comfortably casts up to six hands, making it ideal for both adults and kids.The instructions were easy to follow, and the materials provided were high-quality. The molding process was fun and engaging, allowing us to work together and create something truly special. The silicone material sets quickly, and we were able to achieve detailed, lifelike impressions of our hands.Once we finished the casting, we painted and decorated the finished piece, and it now serves as a beautiful display in our home. Itâs a fantastic keepsake that weâll cherish for years to come. Overall, I highly recommend the Luna Bean Family Hand Casting Kit to anyone looking to create a meaningful family memory. Itâs a fun project that brings everyone together!

Anniversary gift
This was absolutely a great kit. It was simple to setup and use. The instructions was very simple to understand. We have long and thick hands and it came out beautifully. It was very detailed in the results. It came with everything you need. Gloves, scalpel like tools, wooden stick to mix the product, and etc. no need for extra purchases. It was really inexpensive for such a memorable gift/project. We have it sitting on a shelf and so far itâs still holding strong. Itâs quick and easy to make and it works for majority of hand sizes. Itâs thick far as mixing and for the finish product. It not fragile as it may look. I highly recommend

Must buy
It’s incredible. We bought this for a close relative to do with her father who will be going to his heavenly home soon. She will ALWAYS hold her daddy’s hand with this mold. The process was easy and explained well on the directions. The mold turned out perfect and had every detail of their hands.

If we can do it, you can do it!!!
Bought this for my mom and I to do on a girls weekend trip. We live far away but are best friends! Several things went wrong but alas, it turned out beautifully!!!!Some tips: use extra drop cloths for your work stations; watch the video; shorthand the directions so you aren’t overwhelmed; use all disposable wisks and bowls; don’t be afraid to really get into the crevices and clean it up; have fun!We read the directions three times each, watched the video, and also wrote down our own shorthand directions. We didn’t have an extra person to help us, so having the short hand directions with us was helpful so we didn’t have to keep watching the video or reading the directions. It really isn’t difficult; the directions are just extremely thorough which can seem intimidating!We were staying at an Airbnb so we used distilled water which we kept in the fridge until we were ready.We had the idea of holding a heart-shaped stone together, but ended up deciding the stone was too small to be visible in the final sculpture. So we decided to put the heart shaped stone in the actual plaster as we poured. We waited until the mold was filled about 2/3 with plaster and made sure it was startkng to firm before adding the crystal. We didn’t want it sinking to the bottom!Several things went wrong in the process, all preventable, all user error. We laid down extra plastic dollar store tablecloths to protect the ground. Boy, are we lucky we did that! While swirling the plaster around in our mold, I accidentally let the mold slide right out of the bucket!!!!!! The directions literally warns you this can happen, hahaha. HOWEVER!! Thankfully, after bouncing three feet along the ground, the mold was perfectly fine!!!!!But then! As I diligently poured the plaster, my foot accidentally kicked over the bucket containing our wet plaster! Thankfully we were able to salvage it by picking up the tarp it spilled on, and pouring it back into the bucket.Once the plaster was set and ready to be cleaned up, there were quite a few air bubbles. I’m sure this is also avoidable, but I really enjoyed deep cleaning the sculpture and making it perfect. I also had a bit longer nails that didn’t cast well. I didn’t think it would be an issue, but apparently it was, haha. My rings casted beautifully though and although I would’ve loved for my mom to wear her wedding rings, she was worried about them not casting well.We made some mistakes along the way, but overall enjoyed the process and I would definitely do this again!!!!! Plus, one day if the sculpture were to break, we’ll still have the heart shaped crystal that’s inside.

The powder delivered for phase 1 to make the mould did not match the quantity defined in the details. I received 2 bags of 435g each rather than a total of 1500g. Moreover, when I mixed it with distilled water at 24deg the mix dried out in about 1min and never changed colour as indicated. Not worth the money.

Not working starting step 1, the foam not getting frozen. Waited for more than 30 mins our hand in the box and only water separation we got…and masses of foam. Requested a return
