Do not "stick your hand in a bucket of plaster of Paris" as someone previously suggested!Plaster of Paris can get really hot while setting and you would end up severely burning your hand...A slightly more sensible approach is to make a mould of your hand using something like clay or alginate and then use that mould to create a plaster of Paris duplicate of your hand...
It produces an exthermal heat
Plaster of Paris is a classic exothermic reaction. The gypsum when heated to 150 degrees dehydrates with 75% of water content escaping as vapor. When water is reintroduced it resets the crystal lattice and gives off heat.

Plaster of Paris is formed from gypsum. The gypsum is heated to 150 decrees Celsius and becomes a dry powder. When this powder is mixed with water it re-forms into a paste and eventually hardens into a solid. The powder mixed with water is held together by hydrogen bonds in the water molecules. This is a week bond that is easily broken. When Plaster of Paris and water are mixed together they undergo a chemical change. The particles rearrange to make a completely new substance. When plaster of Paris and water are mixed together the mixture becomes warm releasing energy in the form of heat therefore undergoing a chemical change.
