How can you make a mold of your hand?
Does anyone know of an inexpensive way to make a mold of a hand. I want to do this as an art project with some children. I like to get a lot of detail in their hands, and make 3-D. I looked in mussels, but there are about $ 80-10 each, and I could do about 10. I read on the clay plaster molds and tape. (CAN / How is the mold with 3D clay) Do any of these before and has done enough to turn. Do you have any advice for young children.
The band works very well, damp and apply by hand and dry … is cut can be difficult with small children to leave a narrow joint.
