We received a "My first handprint" kit as a gift a few days ago and decided to make an Addy handprint the other night. Easy, right? Wrong!! After grabbing the plaster like quick sand the first two times (and then having her hand washed for re-dos), Addy finally flattened her hand out the third time (and just in time too!). Before we were done, we had plaster all over. The above picture (top) is a re-enactment, since we were too busy trying to keep Addy from becoming completely encased in a cast during the actual handprinting to take pictures. (However, you'll see that her hand still managed to get plaster on it during the re-enactment as well!). Though it was a mess, it was a lot of fun and when we look back, we'll always wonder if her hand ever really was that small.
