My Kindergarten teacher used this method to make hand prints for my class in 1960. This is by far THE best hand print method. It shows every finger print and wrinkle of the hand or foot. It’s great!
The window glaze smelled like straight gasoline. It also says on the tub to not get it on your skin. I really wanted to try this but I just couldn’t put my baby’s hand in all those chemicals. Looks super cute though! I might try salt dough instead for the mold
You won’t get the fine hand print wrinkles and finger prints with any other method. Neither myself, my kids or grandkids suffered any ill effects from touching this stuff.
The MSDS sheet for DAP Window Glazing indicates that it SHOULD NOT be in contact with skin and you should not inhale the vapors. This material is not safe for adults to touch without gloves, let alone a child.
Thanks for sharing this wonderful project idea. I went ahead and bought the following: Dap 12121 1-Pint 33 Glazing Compound White Pint - $6.49 DAP Plaster of Paris Dry Mix 4lb Tub - $5.88 8 in Wooden Embroidery Hoop - $1.89 The glazing was very hard to handle but I found that leaving it open in air did harden it a bit and made it easier to mold/smooth it. Tried replacing the glazing with salt dough but couldn't capture the fine lines from the hand/foot prints.
If you knead the glazing compound for a bit, the texture improves. Salt dough will not give you the fine wrinkles. Only the glazing compound will do that.
Oh my what a wonderful craft so simple and cheap. Did it in our play group. I let the kids make them what fun thank you. I used just warm water and it worked.
I think if I do this project, I will place the window glaze and wax paper on top of a cutting board and lightly pick it up and tap tap tap the board like when you make macarons. That should get the air bubbles out.
litgamer 4900 yes. Play-doe works much better. Gives a better print. The glaze dries fast so you don’t have long to get it into shape you want and prints. Play-doe won’t dry as quickly as the glaze does
Play dough will not give the very fine wrinkle details. Only glazing compound will do that. The glazing compound does not have to dry before pouring the plaster of Paris on to it. I have not found glazing compound to dry fast at all. It’s a bit oily so it shouldn’t dry fast.
Yes. It’s like a putty. You can knead it again after the dried plaster mold has been removed from the compound. It does take awhile for the plaster to set completely. I would like something other than plaster of Paris. It can break if dropped.
I followed your tutorial to a T, followed the plaster of Paris exactly according to the instructions, pounded plenty around, saw bubbles trying to come up but never popped. Mine turned out terrible. Any harder and my kitchen table would have broke! I have to re do them but not sure what to try different...

Yes, but coat the inside of the ring with Vaseline or you will have to chip it out. You can very gently remove the ring before the plaster fully dries.

I've done a few dog prints... The glaze is very oily so it won't stick on the dog at all. I would make sure you dip your furry friends paw in soapy water following the impression to make sure they dont lick their paw after.
Yep! you need to grab a chunk out of the bucket and roll it really well...The oil will spread throughout and make it less sticky and looser. Hope this helps!
2 cups flour (for a gluten-free playdough, use rice flour) 1 cup salt 2 1/2 tsp cream of tartar (this is a powder and can be found in the spices section at your grocery store) 1 tbsp vegetable oil 2 cups water In a saucepan, combine all ingredients and mix thoroughly. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the consistency of playdough (roughly 5 mins). Divide dough into as many parts as desired to make separate colors. Use food coloring to color each portion of dough (just a few drops). Store in air-tight containers and it will last for years.

Sarah DeCubellis it’s perfectly safe. We just did it. Just gotta wash their hands after. I did her feet.

It tuned out amazing! And with gold foil added it just looks so perfect!

I have used glazing compound for making prints for myself, my kids, and grandkids. Truly no lasting ill effects. Just wash hands after using.
Thank you so much for this. I’ve tried and failed several times. Your instructions are excellent!

I so agree with Taslima. If you knead the glazing compound a bit it will form into an easier product to work with.
Oh my what a wonderful craft so simple and cheap. Did it in our play group. I let the kids make them what fun thank you. I used just warm water and it worked.
If you get air pockets just press some polyfilla into them, let set and lightly scrape/sand once dry.
I used your method and turned out beautiful thank you for posting this :)
They turned out awesome. thank you for the in depth instructions!!
excellent method for paw prints also

👍Exactly what I was thinking. And maybe use a picture frame instead of the wooden ring. It's beautiful, I love it💕
Oh my goodness thank you for making this video!
They print are so prettyyyy
For the foot shaping can u use playdow and for the feet part can u use paist

Nice detail on that window glaze.
Thank you!
The glaze literally copies every wrinkle and fold of the hand. It is so pretty
Thank you for sharing. It's looks lovely.
What uh used window glazing what was that?
Or
What was the base is it clay or something else?
How long i need tl wait to be dry?
And can i use the same windows glazing more times?
Yes. It’s like a putty. You can knead it again after the dried plaster mold has been removed from the compound. It does take awhile for the plaster to set completely. I would like something other than plaster of Paris. It can break if dropped.

When stirring, maybe try not to get air bubbles in it when stirring
Very beautiful 😊
I did this exactly like the video and my plaster of Paris gets cracks in it when I try to turn it over. I let it set overnight for two nights.
This is awesome! Thank you

loved this tutorial. can you remove the frame after dried? thanks
yes! but its risky. Ive done it before, you need to chisel a bit,.. could crack... If that happens you could always glue it back together.
Yes, but coat the inside of the ring with Vaseline or you will have to chip it out. You can very gently remove the ring before the plaster fully dries.
Love to make this for valentine day for my Kids in my class but how can I keep it from drying so they can but their Hand on it please help me.

Can we use anything else instead of window glaze
Amazing. can I use ceramic dough instead?
It might not give the very fine hand wrinkles/folds. That’s why glazing compound is so nice.
Plaster of pair is dangerous. 12 year old lost 8 fingers in UK. Be carefull around kids. It can burn eyes etc
steve michigan OMG really?
She was 16 and her hand became stuck in the plaster as it set
What? The hand is not supposed to even touch the hand. It just fills the glazing compound hand depression.
Plaster of paris what types you used
Is this safe for dog paw prints...will the window glaze be safe and clean up well on the paw?
I've done a few dog prints... The glaze is very oily so it won't stick on the dog at all. I would make sure you dip your furry friends paw in soapy water following the impression to make sure they dont lick their paw after.
Thank You
great job. what is the name of frame, how should i source this online?
Thank you
😘💋
Bro how did she play with glaze without making a mess lol.
It’s like a putty. It doesn’t make a big mess. It’s called a glazing compound. It’s used to seal the glass on windows It’s not a liquid glaze.
How to make dough
Hi! Can I do it with salt dough? I mean, can I replace the window glazing by salt dough? Thanks😊
Sarah Youssef Did u try it with salt Dough ? if so , how did it come out?
Hi!! Yes i tried with it and it worked !! 👍🏼👌🏼🙏🏽
You can but salt dough will not give you the very fine lines on the palm of the hand. Only glazing compound will do that.
it's a nice vid but sound is less
For how long we can keep it with us?
my window glaze is oily and sticky..did you have that issue as well?:/
Yep! you need to grab a chunk out of the bucket and roll it really well...The oil will spread throughout and make it less sticky and looser. Hope this helps!
You got the latex one probably I had the same issue you need to get the one in the bucket not the tube
Kneading it will get it to where you it to be.
Window glaze can't find me....pls tell me another one we can use?
2 cups flour (for a gluten-free playdough, use rice flour)
1 cup salt
2 1/2 tsp cream of tartar (this is a powder and can be found in the spices section at your grocery store)
1 tbsp vegetable oil
2 cups water
In a saucepan, combine all ingredients and mix thoroughly. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the consistency of playdough (roughly 5 mins). Divide dough into as many parts as desired to make separate colors. Use food coloring to color each portion of dough (just a few drops). Store in air-tight containers and it will last for years.
