There’s another one. Tiny grimy fingerprints smeared on car windows, glass doors and the refrigerator, evidence that a little person is in the vicinity. There are days you feel like you’re constantly cleaning up after your little criminal, but one day they’ll be all grown up (yes, they grow up) and you’ll miss those little fingers and hands. Fear not, Dallas-based boutique F is For Frank Prints of Love casts your child’s fingerprints in pewter to create necklaces, key chains or cufflinks. Designers Casey Melton and Shoshannah Frank suggest children be at least 2 years old to make the best impressions at their studio in the Design District. They can also cast handprints of babies for a one-of-a-kind paperweight or ornament. They keep the molds forever, so after your kids have gotten over putting their paws on everything you can go back for another piece to get your fingerprint fix.
