How to
CLEVER TIP
1
To mix the plaster, pour some water into a mixing container. The general
ratio for Plaster of Paris is two parts plaster to one part water. This ratio
can vary.
2
Always add the plaster to the water (not the water to the plaster) and
sprinkle the plaster in to the water a bit at a time. You will know to stop
adding the plaster when the water no longer absorbs the plaster as it
is added.
3
Gently mix the Plaster of Paris mixture from side to side until it reaches
a uniform and smooth consistency. Tap the side of the container from
time-to-time releasing any air bubbles.
4
Pour your plaster into the frame and allow to settle, gently tapping the
frame to release any air bubbles.
Do not overfill your frame. Leave 2-3mm at the top to allow the hand to make
an impression without overflowing.
5
Allow your plaster to thicken and then gently push your hand into the
frame. Once you feel an impression has been made, remove your hand.
6
Allow plaster to dry for at least 24 hours before decorating.
7
Paint your impression using bright colours and glitter. Add the words
‘Everyone Belongs’. Allow to dry.
