Creating A Baby Belly Mold Part
By: Jamie Snodgrass
Hello everyone.
First off, congratulations on having a baby.
Its a big step, a step which should always be remembered. Making a belly mold
i think is one of the neatest things i have done in a long time. Ours is hanging
in our baby's room all colored up looking great.
You can also created one of these belly molds quickly and easily, simply by
follow the steps and pictures i have out lined below .
Ok, lets get started.
Here is a list of things needed.
Approx 13 roles of Gypsona Plaster bandages. (You can get these at your local
pharmacy)
1 Pair of scissors
Plastic, I used 6 Garbage bags.
A couple of large bowls to hold the warm water in.
Blanket
3 Pillows
1 Old towel
1 roll of seranwrap (cling in seal plastic wrap).
1 Jar Of Vasaline ( If you are going to do your hands)
First off let me tell you that this is not a hard thing to do, so relax and
have fun with it.
I am also going to tell you that this is going to make a mess, there is no way
around it. The good thing is that the plaster is very easy to clean up.
Step one:
You need to find a place to do this at, the women getting the mold done has
to be lying on her back the complete time, not sitting up.
So being that she is pregnant you have to make her confinable.
What we did is this: We took an old thick blanket and put it on our hardwood
floor. We then took 2 pillows and put them side by side then the 3rd on the
top. We then took our garbage bags and put them over the pillows and the blanket.
This makes a bed for her to lay on.
I would not do this on carpet if you can help it, some of the plaster and water
will spill off the garbage bags and onto the floor. On hardwood this is easy
to clean.
If you have no choice you will have to use more garbage bags and an old towel
to clean up the water before it runs off the bags.
Step Two:
You now need to cut the rolls of plaster bandages into pieces.
The size will depend on how large your belly is. Just measure from right hand
side (by your back) across your belly to your left hand side (by your back ),
this is the size you need to cut the pieces.
There will be some pieces left that are different sizes, keep them you can
use them.
Step 3:
Ok ladies now this might seem funny but i have to tell you this. Remeber that
the mold will show your breasts the way you want them to look.
What i mean is if you dont where a braw, then they are going to be sagging and
your nipples will be showing. If you dont want this, then where a braw that
is going to support them for you.
You want to take everything else off except your panties.
NOTE: THIS IS THE MOST IMPORTANT PART DONT SKIP IT !!!
Now you have to take the seran wrap and put it on your body were the mold is
going to be.
We put it from just below the hips to the top of your neck. Were you put it
depends on what you want molded, some women mold the belly some mold there hands
on the belly etc...
Take a look at our Photo Gallery to get some ideas.
The key is to make sure you have seran wrap on everything that you are going
to put the plaster on..
If you are going to mold your hands just put them right on the belly over the
seran wrap, apply the Vaseline over the back of the hands and then simply cast
right over the hands. Make sure the fingers are spread far enough apart so that
it is easily distinguishable that it is a hand being cast into the belly cast.
NOTE: What happens when the plaster dries when its directly on your skin is
it will pull every single little hair you have on your body off when you remove
the mold. (Trust me we found out the hard way).
