romantic cast

This couple liked a photo of the hands making a heart they had seen and so we casted them this way. We choose for a bone white basic colour with a beige top. photos provided by Branch graphic design.

green casting

Here at Transitions we are trying very hard to keep our waste to a minimum. It is sometimes a challenge because we do offer great belly and baby keepsakes in wonderful light unbreakable materials like resin and forton, what require lots of containers. But i am happy to inform you that thanks to our generous green thinking friends i am able to recycle lots of their used containers . We scrape all material with spatulas out of the containers before throwing them out, put our jars upside down to take out the last drops of silicon, use blue and green bags, wash our towels and do the cleaning with environmental products, and reuse most of our brushes. So there for your stackable, rinsed large plastic ice tubs and old towels and tshirts are very welcome here in Transitions. Please washed and dryed containers only. Drop of at Transtions 117 Saulnier road or call me for pick up.
