ClayLinks® Take & Bake Containers
One of the key distinctions between ClayLinks Clay and other modeling compounds used for memory-making is that our clay is finished (cured) by baking it. Our proprietary, ClayLinks Clay creates a lasting memento that, when baked, will not shrink, crack or curl over time.
From our talks with you, we know baking is not always easily accomplished at your workplaces. We’ve developed a solution with our Take & Bake Container! This way, you can easily have a family take home an unbaked ClayLinks Print. This allows families to decorate their print with other family members at home and bake when the time is right. To help even more, we’ve created a printable handout for families that explains why you are sending their ClayLinks print home unbaked and undecorated. It walks families through our recommendations for how to make the at-home part of the process a healing ceremony.
To use Take & Bake Containers:
- Place an unbaked ClayLinks print in the container.
- Cover the print with the lid for safe transport home with your clients.
- The ClayLinks print can be baked in the very same container!
- Baking directions are conveniently affixed to each cover.
These containers work with most prints made with our Maroon & Large Green Circle or Maroon Heart Molds. For larger prints, try our Large Take & Bake Containers.
10 containers and lids with instructions per package. Also available in BULK packages of 50.
*Please do not send unbaked prints through the mail. Lids MUST be removed before baking.

What Customers Say
When I told the mother of a young man who died suddenly that the funeral home could make a clay impression of her son’s hand, her face brightened for the first time during our conversation. ‘Oh, let me tell you the story his hand will tell,’ she smiled. ‘Some callouses and maybe even some dirt from the work he did will show up in the clay. And all of that will be okay because it’s who he was and I want to remember that forever.’
Just the prospect of having this personalized memento of her son took this mother out of her intense pain for a moment and brought her comfort. I can’t say enough about their power to heal.
And, every time I use your clay to make a handprint, I’m reminded of how superior it is to other clays I’ve used. And, I’ve tried a lot of clays! Your entire print-making system is quick and easy to use and the prints truly do last forever. It’s also easy to teach others. In fact, most staff members at the hospitals and funeral homes I work with feel comfortable making prints themselves after only one demonstration.
