Moon Stone Pottery owner Michelle Gibbert, right, helps Levi Maihot, 9, put his handprint on a slab of clay Sunday as his little sister Cassandra, 3, watches closely. His grandmother, Cindy Maihot, holds his little brother John, left, while his aunt, Kaileigh Dube, holds her son Mason, 8 months. Cindy wanted handprint ornaments of all her grandchildren for the family tree. Gibbert, who offers the service, says the ceramic keepsakes preserve hand and footprints better than paper. “A lot of what I have from when my kids were little is on paper, which can rip. Ceramics last longer,” Gibbert says. Brian Dube, Mason’s father, also attended. Andree Kehn/Sun Journal
