Signify First Communion in a beautiful way.

Their praying hands.

At Beloved Casting Studio, we celebrate special events with the art of life casting.

Your child’s First Communion is the perfect time to capture their precious hands in the classic praying format.

The breathtaking skin details and the sweet form of their small hands makes this a treasure forever.

The Experience

The casting experience is a fun and simple process!

Skin-safe material is used to capture all the fine details of your child’s skin. Making a mold of his/her hands is quick - typically only 2 minutes!

However, the casting appointment will take about 45 minutes. This includes time for preparation and choosing display and finishing options.

The stone art sculpture will be made after you leave the studio. The cast will be ready for pick-up in 3 weeks.
