Our clay print impressions are crafted using an air-dry clay with your pets’ name hand stamped in. Your clay impression will arrive home to you in a metal protective tray and will take approximately 2 – 4 weeks to dry fully after the lid has been removed. After being allowed to fully dry, we highly recommend spraying with a clear acrylic spray to give your impression a lovely shine and to preserve the integrity of your pets’ paw for years to come.
