Quilted Mug?

Short History compiled from various references.

We use a simple, clean and quick system to take a hand and foot print that is suitable for babies as young as 1 day old! Once we have the prints they are scanned and then blemishes smudges etc are cleaned. We use this image to create your gift from 100's of gifts and keepsakes ideas. From simple framed hand print with name and age, to a hand or foot print turned into a super hero, tractor, elephant, penguin or even Santa. The finished design can then be added onto mugs, plates, tiles or coasters or printed on many other items. The original print can also be used to create solid silver jewellery for him or her. These personalised gifts start from as little as £7.50, and are a perfect for the Christmas Gift Season. We prefer to know when you are visiting us, so we are ready for you but often can take the print without an appointment. Don't hesitate to pop in and ask. You Don't even have to live near or visit us ! For a small fee of £2.95 we can post the kit to you, then you scan the result and email it to back to us. We then chat over the options and items with you, take payment via an email link and the finished item(s) will be posted back to you, so you don't have to be local to us. Finally, we can also scan your existing hand prints, (or you email your existing scanned prints) for example from nursery school paint, or ones you have taken yourself. Results may vary depending on the image, but we usually send a proof and will make sure it is practical to be used before printing.

During any evening booking, we do not mind you bringing in your own wine, nibbles etc to make the creative evening very sociable and even more fun.
