#2. Set the Stage

Set your foam ball on top of the bottom base to Create the Disc.

TIP: Use the raised ring around the inside tin edge as a guide for size and placement.

 

#3. Create the Disc

Use the top of the tin to press the ball into a flat, round disc.

TIP: Be sure to keep the disc within the inside of the raised ring. Your disc must fit back inside the tin container in Step 6.

#4. press the paw

Press your pet’s paw firmly into the center of the foam to make a deep, clear impression.

TIP: The impression you make is exactly what will be replicated in glass. (Don’t be shy when pushing, it’s nice to get those nails!)

#5. drying time

Leave the impression undisturbed and let it dry on top of the tin for 48 hours. 

TIP: While drying, some small cracks may appear around the edges of your disc – this is normal.
