Everybody wants a casting kit for Christmas - aaarrggh!!!


Just a quick one tonight. Very busy here at casting central. Kits are going out like wild fire - the Christmas rush is definitely on & we're working really hard to get the casting kits out for next day delivery.

On top of that we've got tons of normal framing to do as well. Water colours, prints & even a bit of embroidery have come our way this week & I've never cut so many mounts!!

Now off to make up a few more of our mother & baby plinth kits which seem popular this week - pic above for you! It is a lovely gift idea casting Mum & baby together & you even get the paint included - not something most kits like this give you.

Going to give you a link to one of the shops that stock our stuff - A Little Star - new website up this week & it looks great.

Anyway, must go & get some sleep. Big order just arrived in the inbox & need some mental preparation ready for the morning!

Lifecasting materials are difficult to get..

baby casting kit materials
...or so it seems.

I've had many requests this last week for alginate & casting powder & so have updated that page on the website. You could buy the frames & powders separately before but not since the update - lazy of me I know! Anyway, now it's done so that should keep people happy. Next to be done - the gallery - honest.

We did a Christmas fair today in Guildford & our imprint kits were popular - no mess with these & they're great fun. I did my Mum's dog paw print the other week - that worked surprisingly well & the dog (who is a bit dim I must say) didn't seem to mind!

Next post may be a while as we're expecting to be busy this week along with school Xmas plays & a trip to the dentist. Already got loads of kit orders lined up for Monday! I can tell I will have seen a lot of casting kit boxes before I'm here again so wish me luck.

Thought it was about time Creative Casting had a blog so here it is!

I'll be keeping it brief - I'm not so good at this kind of thing. I do hope to keep a bit of a diary of what's gong on in the world of baby casting though so do keep an eye on this blog!
I've been busy making up the weeks stock of kits today as well as finding yet more errors on our new website. Got a few more pages to write yet & I'm working on the gallery of framed lifecasts that we or our agents have done over the last 12 months. My current favourite is this set of 3 pairs of brothers feet.


Anyway, off to bed as I've already got a fair bit to do tomorrow!
