- After opening the package, inspect the contents carefully to make sure the tile is unbroken. The tile has 2 holes at the top which will be used to thread ribbon through for hanging. The ribbon will be included and sent back to you upon completion of customization and firing in the kiln. Make sure that you consider this when deciding how you place the footprints.
- When you are ready to capture the prints, dampen the sponge slightly with water and then dip it directly into the paint. Gently dab the paint directly onto the foot, making sure you completely cover the sole of the foot and bottom of toes. If possible, it is best to have somebody hold the child when you capture the prints. Bringing the tile directly to his or her foot while holding the ankle in place works the best, applying slight pressure with a rolling motion from heel to toes as to get the best coverage. If you are unhappy with the first print, you can quickly clean the sponge and wipe the print off in order to start the process over again. Be sure to thoroughly remove all of the colored paint and then repeat the process. Keep in mind that the colors become much brighter and darker after firing in the kiln, so if you are happy with the image of the footprint but are afraid it isn’t dark enough, don’t worry ☺
- Allow the tile to air dry for several hours before repackaging it in the original bubble wrap, paper, and box.
- Complete the information sheet below and include it in the box for customization of your tile. Make sure that when the package is all closed up you tape it shut and ensure that the tile doesn’t rattle or move inside – it is essential that the tile is very secure to prevent breaking in transit.
