Luna Bean Couples Casting Kit

This was such a fun and easy activity. We did my grandson, husband’s, and my hand! Turned out great!! I would say just make sure your positioning your hands in the middle and maybe get the family size for more room!

This is perfect to do with your partner or even give as a gift to a couple. It’s a really fun experience, and honestly super satisfying once you see the final result. I was genuinely surprised by how good the cast turned out. Definitely something I’d do again!

Absolutely loved this hand casting kit! The instructions were clear and easy to follow and the details captured in the cast are incredible. It picked up even the fine lines and small features of our hands making it such a beautiful and meaningful keepsake. The process was fun and the final result looks amazing. Highly recommend for couples or families wanting something special to cherish. My picture is before we went in and cleaned it up but the details it captured are amazing!

Overall the process is ok. Instead of buying the smaller pack for an infant, I bought the larger kit. It was cheaper for the amount that you receive. I was able to make 2 feet and 1 hand plus my first failed attempt at a foot. My baby is 5 weeks old at the time of molds. I found measurements to break it all down online. For one baby foot, this is what I used. For one hand, I halved step one. Of course the amount will vary based on the container you use and the size of the foot or hand. Step 1 - 1 lb water. 5 oz alginate Step 2 - 1/4 cup water. 1/2 cup plaster I definitely recommend two people. One to hold baby and one to hold leg or arm. The hardest part is getting the plaster in all the right places, especially for toes. Although, it’s also hard to keep baby’s foot in place for step 1. Even relaxed, my baby came alive when it came to holding his foot down. I would recommend using more material for step 1 than you think you need. My baby kept pulling his foot or toes out of the mold no matter how tight I tried to hold his leg. The second foot is flat to the bottom of my container so the heel is flat, but I’m ok with that. I’m most saddened about the toes not being perfect. It’s hard to get the plaster everywhere. I even added a little at a time and rolled a little bit of plaster inside the mold, holding the container at all angles in attempts to get it throughout. I added little by little repeating the slow roll and turn of the container. Yet I had dents/craters in both feet. The hand was perfect - no craters or dents. And of course the plaster filled the hand mold perfectly bc we had his hand on the edge of the cup. He had a full inch of space on the other side of the solo cup, but we managed to get his hand mold against the one side. He screamed throughout the process. You also have to worry about getting the bubbles out. I’m not sure if my 1st foot had bubbles bc of step one or two, but the foot has tiny bubbles on the top of the finished piece. In attempts not to overly stress out my baby, I did each attempt at different days. He really did not like this process, and when step 1 started to solidify, he got more mad bc he couldn’t move. Between hand or foot. My baby was the most mad with our attempt at getting his hand molded. I watched a ton of videos, and none of the babies reacted as violently as mine. Of course the bad instances probably didn’t cut it for a YouTube video. Every baby is different. And even though my experience wasn’t perfect, I wish I had known about this for my first two kids. I still may do their feet even though they are 4.5 and 2 years old.

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.

Easy to use and an amazing way of having a meaningful activity with your loved one. Makes a great keepsake.

It hardens very fast! We don’t even get to make the mold but the time you stir to get all the powdered dissolved it is hard and you can’t put your hand in there! We gave this a second chance and moved faster and it turned out incredible! Also the company offered us a full refund for the first one. We want to buy more for other family members. This was a 50th anniversary gift for my in laws and the love it!

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 enough mixture for the depth of the bucket, it then dried within 15 seconds and we didn’t manage to get a single cast. Ended up paying £50+ to bin the entire bucket..
