Belly casting has become the ever increasingly popular way for women around the
world to remember their pregnancy with a pregnancy keepsake.  There is something
immensely fascinating in watching your body take the incredible journey through the 9
months of a pregnancy.

The Belly of Love belly cast kit range offers a variety of affordable DIY (do it yourself)
pregnancy belly casting kits. Our belly cast kits (sometimes referred to as a belly mask)
enable you to capture precious memories of your pregnant form as a 3 dimensional
plaster sculpture. Pass them on as an heirloom to your child, display them as a custom
made artwork or turn them into a functional furnishing like a nightlight or a belly bowl
for your new baby's room.  We have sold hundreds of kits to many happy expectant
parents throughout Australia and overseas. We  are the leading Australian Made
Environmentally Friendly DIY pregnancy Belly cast kit.

The belly cast (a plaster sculpture or mould of the pregnant belly), gives women the
opportunity to capture the physical changes of their pregnant form to forever
remember and cherish.  Understandably not all women enjoy the experience of being
pregnant, they may only remember how uncomfortable and restricted they felt, these
emotions can be expressed in their choice of design & decorating techniques of their
belly casts (I chose broken glass for my first belly cast to represent the pain).  

Photos cannot capture  the essence of a pregnancy but a decorated belly cast captures
every detail, and every curve. Midwives and Doulas around the world encourage
women to belly cast during their pregnancy, as it is seen as strengthening the bond
between the mother and her unborn child and as an expression of her love before their
birth, it is also a fun way to get the expectant Dad and the older siblings actively
involved.

YOUR BELLY CAST

There are two things you want your finished belly cast to be
1. Strong
2. Smooth

1. We have sourced the number one medical grade plaster gauze on the market. It is
incredibly strong and you will not need to add additional plasters/stone etc over the
top. There are enough rolls of plaster gauze in each kit to belly cast even the largest of
pregnant bellies
2. Our plaster also dries extra smooth.  Again there is no need to coat with extra
plasters/stone etc for that smooth finish  
(Caution: Avoid adding plaster/stone over the top of the belly cast, regardless of how
strong the plaster/stone is. It's adhesion to the belly cast over time will eventually lead
to cracks and peeling, you will also lose fine details such as nipples & bellybuttons)
If you want an extra smooth finish put on a layer of spakfil or jointing compound
purposefully made to adhere to plaster. Or try our Polishing paste exclusive to Belly of
Love and available in our Deluxe belly cast kit and belly cast Decorating kits range.
