Bellycasting
Bellycast
$60 ($30 for Gentle Beginnings Doula Clients)
Bellycasting is a great way of creating a memorable keepsake of your pregnancy. Plaster is draped over the mother’s belly, and typically her breasts, making a beautiful mold of her pregnant features. Crysta does a basic, white, plaster cast leaving endless possibilities for creativity. For details on bellycasting, Contact Crysta with Gentle Beginnings.
