Unlocking Your Creativity: What’s Inside the Kit?

The Perfect Craft Heart Box Keepsake Kit is thoughtfully assembled to provide everything you need for a successful and enjoyable crafting experience, all from the comfort of your home. Inside, you’ll find:

• A High-Quality 3D Mold: This durable mold forms the foundation for your heart-shaped box, ensuring a lovely shape every time.
• Casting Material (Perfect Cast): Enough high-quality plaster to create two beautiful keepsake heart boxes.
• Paints: A selection of paints to bring your creation to life.
• A Brush: The perfect tool to apply your chosen colors.
• Decorative Adhesive-Backed Felt: This adds a touch of elegance and softness to the interior of your box.
• Embellishments: A variety of decorative elements to truly personalize your keepsake.

Step-by-Step to Your Heartfelt Creation

Getting started is a breeze! The kit is designed for ease of use, making it accessible for crafters of various ages and skill levels.

1. Mixing the Magic: Open your bag of Perfect Cast and add ½ cup of warm water. Mix thoroughly for approximately 3 minutes. If you’re feeling artistic, this is the perfect moment to incorporate a paint color of your choice into the mix. Continue stirring until you achieve your desired shade.

2. Pouring and Drying: Carefully pour the Perfect Cast mixture into the two heart-shaped molds provided. Allow the plaster to set. While the plaster will dry relatively quickly, taking about an hour, the kit recommends waiting a full 24 hours after removing the pieces from the mold before painting. This ensures the material is completely hardened and ready for decoration.

3. Preparing for Personalization: Before you begin painting, it’s a good idea to lightly sand your dried heart boxes. This will smooth out any sharp edges, ensuring a polished finish. While the kit includes paints, don’t hesitate to get creative! For an extra touch of shimmer and vibrancy, you might consider using poster paints from brands like OOLY, as one happy crafter discovered.

4. Adding Layers of Color and Detail: Once your first coat of paint is dry, consider applying a second coat for richer color and a more professional look. Allow this to dry completely. Then, it’s time for the fun part: embellishing! Adhere the decorative felt to the inside of your heart, creating a soft lining, and then arrange and attach the embellishments to the exterior to add your unique flair.

A Craft for All Ages (with a Little Help!)

While the Perfect Craft Heart Box Keepsake Kit is officially recommended for children aged eight and up, its user-friendly nature means even younger crafters can enjoy it with some adult supervision. For instance, a nearly five-year-old was able to successfully complete the craft with the invaluable assistance of a parent. Parental guidance is especially helpful during the plaster mixing and pouring stages to ensure surfaces are protected. To keep your crafting area clean and tidy, we highly recommend using a Messmatz from PlaSmart – they are fantastic for protecting tables during messy projects!

Beyond the Box: Endless Possibilities

The beauty of the Perfect Craft Heart Box Keepsake Kit lies not only in its intended use but also in its versatility. The high-quality 3D mold is reusable, meaning the creative possibilities are endless! Beyond a charming trinket box, you can use the mold to craft a delicate heart ring dish, a charming heart paperweight, or even other decorative items. This makes the kit an excellent investment for creating personalized DIY gifts for upcoming holidays or any special occasion.
