What is a Belly Memory?

It's a simple process of creating a plaster cast of your belly. Later, you can decorate the cast and hang in your baby's room. Some women (I have read) have even had their belly casts on public display as art.

A Belly Memory Kit is an inexpensive way to preserve those memories, and not only is it fun to do, I have found that when a few women get together and do a belly cast for a friend it really pulls them together and creates beautiful memories to cherish for ever.

Pregnancy belly casts, sometimes called a belly mask or belly mold, is a plaster cast made of an expecting mom's beautiful pregnant form. Pregnancy is a very special, yet exceedingly short time in a woman's life and memories quickly fade. Photos barely capture a flat 2-dimensional image, but a belly cast captures the exciting transformation a woman’s body has gone through. A belly cast enables a mom to forever remember how she looked during her pregnancy and the special nine months she shared with her growing baby. You can show your child later that “this is what mom looked like when you were inside!” The Belly Memory Kit is a pretty simple one-hour process. A belly cast is usually made 2-3 weeks before a mom's due date,(however, you could make multiple belly casts to capture the miraculous changes in your growing body throughout the pregnancy.)

If you are wondering what you might do with the finished belly cast, the options are endless. You can paint it, decoupage it with photos of the baby. Cover it with fabric, dried flowers, beads, precious stones, lace, shells, feathers or crystals, or you can put prints of the baby's hands and feet on it.

I lined mine with a blanket and my newborn baby slept in it! You can hang it up, use it in the nursery, use it as art, really its endless what you can do with it! Have fun with it, remembering in awe the fact that your baby was IN there.

So, light some candles, put on the perfect music, and sit back and enjoy the time being surrounded by the ones that love you!

How It's Done

Made of plaster gauze, it is an exact replica of your pregnant form. While comfortably seated, layers of warm, moistened gauze are applied to the woman’s oiled torso. The gauze sets in minutes. It is then removed, the edges are clipped finished and sanded, then you can smooth it over more by touching it up with plaster and it is painted with several coats of gesso.

This strengthens and protects the belly cast while preparing the surface for display or adornment.

The kit makes a perfect shower gift: Or instead of having a shower with your girlfriends, Offer to make the cast as a group activity.

The Belly memory Kit is beautifully packaged Belly memory Kit contains everything you need to make a lovely cast of your pregnant belly except for items readily available at your grocery or drug store.

Remember, there is no need to be perfect and because you are dealing with wet plaster, you'll have time to smooth out any rough edges or nudge the plaster strips. and then do touch ups with the plaster after.
