Immortalise Your Cute Baby’s Feet To Keep Them Forever

Though parents want to see their children grow up, one of the saddest parts of them doing so is they lose their adorable features, particularly their squidgy baby feet.

It is so tempting to nibble at those toes and kiss their soles thanks to the extra layers of fat that make them so chubby and delicious.

In fact, according to researchers at the University of Montreal, the same feelings are triggered when we see baby feet as hungry people have when they are given a meal.

The brain lights up as it would if they had taken addictive drugs, making mums and dads want to be as close to their babies as possible, even by playfully nibbling their feet.

So it’s nature’s cruel trick that by six months’ old, the cartilage in the feet start to turn to bone, and by two and a half, their chubby feet have thinned out and are not so squidgy anymore.

This is why getting baby feet casting is a popular idea. Although it cannot bring the smell of your newborn baby back or the sensation of tickling their little toes and hearing them chuckle, it is as close as you can get to being reminded how small and innocent they once were.

Your baby’s feet can be cast in glass, which itself is very delicate, reminding parents of how fragile their little one used to be, or in our more robust materials like beautiful foundry or cold cast bronze or even sterling silver.

A 3D cast will perfectly encapsulate how tiny their feet once were, how perfect their toes were, and the little wrinkles on their soles. While some parents put their child’s first shoes in frames, you could go one better and have a cast of their actual feet!

Another great thing about having a glass casting is it can change colour throughout the day as the light shifts, meaning it always offers something new, no matter how old your child becomes.
