Meet Miranda

I'm Miranda, mom to one amazing boy and wife to the greatest man I know! I own and run First Impressions, born out of a love for hanging my own baby ceramic handprint on our Christmas tree each year.

First Impressions makes ceramic keepsakes for families with young children. I capture your child's hand and foot impressions in clay and turn them into keepsakes that will last a lifetime.

I look forward to meeting you and your little ones!
