One dated square stone each year, arranged chronologically alongside your walkway. The featured growth tradition.

Choose the Trail

Family Circle

Individual oval impression stones arranged as a garden circle. Add a family member or another year as your collection grows.

Choose the Circle

Hand-in-Hand

An adult and child handprint composition on one square keepsake. Use separate impressions for the adult-cast design.

Choose Hand-in-Hand

One new stone. One new chapter.

1. Capture

Use an impression material approved by its manufacturer for the child’s age and brief skin contact. Never put bare hands, feet, or paws in wet cement.

2. Cast

An adult uses the approved transfer or mold process and handles the concrete, dust protection, mixing, and curing under the manufacturer’s instructions.

3. Remember

Add the year, then display the finished decorative stone beside the walking surface. Keep the path flat and clear.

4. Return

Request the next stone as hands and feet grow. Choose a year-by-year set or a family collection.

A walkway built for walking. Keepsakes built for remembering.

The collection can frame a walkway or form a garden display. Decorative cast stones are not certified load-bearing pavers. A walking surface needs its own appropriate paving, level installation, drainage, and slip resistance.

Can children put their hands directly in wet cement?

No. Wet cement can cause chemical burns and dermatitis. Use a suitable separate impression process and keep children away from casting and cement dust. OSHA cement guidance.

What about names and photographs?

Keep the year on the stone if you prefer a private keepsake. Do not send children’s birth dates, full names, or identifying photographs in the first inquiry. Display and photography choices stay with the family.

What is included, and can it stay outside?

The quote must specify kit contents, finished dimensions, curing time, care, climate suitability, and whether casting is included. No universal freeze-thaw or structural rating is claimed.
