YOU BLINK, AND HE’S BIGGER.

One season his hand barely fills his glove. A few seasons later, you wonder where the time went.

Keepsakes of Triumph preserves the size of his hand at this moment. We create a custom cast of your player’s actual hand holding the baseball connected to his story.

His first home run. His first hit. A championship ball. His final Little League season.

Hand cast in person in Tucson, Arizona.

THREE SIMPLE STEPS. ONE KEEPSAKE.

STEP 1: BOOK YOUR CASTING

Choose an appointment for your player’s in-person hand casting in Tucson.

STEP 2: BRING HIS BASEBALL

Bring the ball you want him holding, such as his first home run, first hit, championship, or another meaningful baseball.

STEP 3: WE CAST HIS HAND

We create a mold of his actual hand holding the ball. Then the cast is finished and turned into a keepsake for your family.

This isn’t a photo. It’s him.

A photo shows you what he looked like.

A hand cast preserves the actual size, shape, and details of his hand from this season of his life.

Every finger. Every crease. His hand wrapped around the baseball connected to the moment.

Years from now, you’ll be able to place your hand beside his and remember how small he once was.

“My son’s first home run ball sat in a drawer for two years. I kept thinking I should do something with that. Then I found Grace. Now it’s a hand cast on his dresser and he shows it to every friend who comes over. I wish I’d done it sooner.”

Baseball Mom

“My daughter is 14 now. We cast her hand the summer she turned 12. She didn’t want to do it. She sat through it rolling her eyes. Two years later she asked if she could take it to college. It’s on her desk right now.”

— Maria L

QUESTIONS BEFORE YOU BOOK?

How long does the hand casting appointment take?

Plan for up to one hour for your appointment. Most of that time is spent walking you and your player through the process, preparing the hand position, practicing how to hold the baseball, and making sure everyone is ready before we begin.

The actual casting takes about 5 minutes.

Once I mix the alginate, it’s go time. The material begins setting right away, so we prepare everything first to help make the casting smooth, comfortable, and successful.

Where do appointments happen in Tucson?

Hand casting appointments take place at my home studio in Tucson, Arizona. You will receive the location details after your appointment is confirmed.

Can you come to our home?

Yes. I offer in-home appointments within the Tucson area for an additional $50 travel fee. This option works well for families who prefer the convenience of having the casting done at home.

Do we bring our own baseball?

Yes. Please bring the baseball you want your child holding during the casting. For a first home run keepsake, bring the actual first home run ball whenever possible. That ball becomes part of the story behind the finished piece.

What ages work best for hand casting?

Hand casting works best for players age 7 through adulthood. Your child needs to hold the position for about 5 minutes while the mold is created.

How long does the finished keepsake take?

Your finished hand cast usually takes about 2 to 3 weeks. Each piece is created and finished individually.

How much does a baseball hand cast cost?

Baseball hand casts start at $250. Final pricing depends on the keepsake, personalization, base, and other options you choose.

Do you work with baseball teams or multiple players?

Yes. Team and group casting appointments are available.

Groups of 5 or more players receive 10% off each qualifying hand cast.
