ETA: the RIGHT picture

Does this need to be laminated? Or is it okay the way it is?? Will it hold up?

Suggest how you would put her information on there please.

    If those are the originals or only copy, id put it under fade/uv resistant glass. My mom had a calligrapher write their full names and birthdate as well as some swirls and flowers. Beautiful and adorable feet.

    They're originals.  Can I copy them and have them turn out okay? I have 4 sets.  One being on plain white paper.

    If you take them to a good place with a quality printer, you can get some really nice copies that you wouldt mind a calligrapher playing around with and not be worried about them getting ruined.

    That sounds beautiful, I think I may try to do something similar!

    I only had one copy...they placed his footprints on the lid of the memory box they gave me.  I copied them/scanned them into the computer.  Since then, I've had his footprints tattoed on my ankle.  I have a couple copies floating everywhere too because I used his footprints/my tattoo design as our Logan's Hope Family Team logo for March of Dimes.

    I would definitely put them under glass just to be safe.

    They are beautiful.

    Is that the original? If so, I would take it to a professional photo/frame shop and talk to them about preservation. Then, I would take a high quality copy of it on acid free paper. There are special products, mats and glass. 

    BTW, I love the pic. It is beautiful!

    I'm so glad you posted this. I have Lilah's footprints in our front hall and hadn't thought about UV, etc.
