What a great keepsake! |
|
We wanted to remember how big our first child's "condo" was so we bought this and my husband was the sculptor. We have this keepsake now and can show our son as he gets older. Great idea! |

Easy and fun |
It is very easy though can be a little messy. My 3-year old son had lots of fun with his "art project".
Make sure you cut it into smaller strips. Much easier to apply and better results. |

Wonderful and unique keepsake |
|
We just finished our belly cast and I am thrilled! It seemed fairly easy to apply, you just have to cut the strips into different lengths and get a bowl of warm water. Everything you need comes with the kit, no need to run to the hardware store. We will still apply joint compound and paint the cast. Those things are not included. Anyhow I HIGHLY recommend this cast kit. It turned out beautiful and will always be such a great memory from this exciting journey. It took about one hour plus 10 minutes drying, but we took our time. If you haven't done it yet... cast your belly, you'll love it! |

Easy to use, great way to remember your pregnant shape |
We barely got this belly cast done before our little one decided to come 3 weeks early.
Anyway, this kit has everything you need to make your basic belly and bust cast. It can be a very messy process, so make sure to adequately cover surfaces with an old sheet or plastic drop cloth.
Mom will have to stay in the same position for up to an hour, so choose your position wisely. We did ours with her arms over her head, and she got quite tired.
It takes a while to do a good job and get the plaster smooth and even, but that extra time is worth it.
After it dries, you will want to strengthen the cast with laquer or gesso. I did find the sanding screen provided did not do a very good job. I used a dremmel on the edges to smooth things out.
Make sure after the baby is born to take photos of him in the belly portion! |

fairly easy and beautiful belly cast |
i had casted a friend's belly once before. we used plaster from home depot and thin, soft gauze strips. it didn't work all that well and so i thought i'd give an actual belly cast kit a try. first of all, the fact that the plaster was in the strip rolls was so convenient! just had to dip in water and it was ready to go! didn't use the belly cream that came w/ it b/c altho it's not "organic" vaseline works much better. liked that it included a plastic drop cloth and gloves...that was great! and the rolls of gauze were so abundant! i have enough left over to make another cast!
the reason i gave it 4 instead of 5 stars is that i think that the gauze should be a little stiffer. it's stiff when u cut it, but when u dip in water it becomes too limp and there is some work required to try to keep in flat and to keep it from rolling in on itself. i had a friend help me, she dipped the strips and flattened them out and i applied. if she hadn't helped, it would've taken me twice as long. as it was, it took about an hour. |
