"The bellymask kit actually arrived a day earlier than expected. We're anxious to
get to making the mask-although it's almost a shame to open and empty such beautiful packaging."

"Thank you for your help & understanding in getting the bellymask to me so quickly.
We received it on Saturday & had fun doing it Sunday morning(Father's Day)!!
You have a great business-I see why you are so successful."

"I purchased a bellymask kit from you about a month ago to honor my wife, as a surprise.
It was a great experience making the mask and truly allowed us the marvel at the changes
taking place in her body. It was a wondrous journey to take together from the sitting,
to the finishing, to the design and the painting. We laughed, she cried, we were astonished
and amazed-all at the same time. Your kit made it an easy project and I highly recommend
the experience. Your insights into showing the mask and comforting the model made the
sitting a very pleasant one".

"Thank you sooooo much for this wonderful experience. My husband and I and all three
kids had a ball yesterday making our beautiful bellymask. It was the first time I've
been "plastered" in years!! This was the best thing we've done".
- S. Swain, California
"Just wanted to let you know that we did the bellymask today. What an experience!
My husband not an artsy person at all.. did a great job. He says that your instructions
were very good. I think he wasn't thrilled about doing the whole thing in the beginning,
but once he got going, and especially seeing the finished product, he feels a great sense
of accomplishment. By the way, our four-year-old daughter helped some too. She really
enjoyed the whole thing."
- K. Erickson, South Carolina
"My husband and girlfriend did the mold last week and it was such an incredible experience!!
When they took the mask off and they showed it to me I was awestruck. It was the most
beautiful piece of artwork I have done to date next to the babies. I am so thrilled we did it.
My husband loved doing it and it gave him a fun way to participate in the pregnancy instead
of always being the one to put together the bouncy seats. It felt so special"
- A . Zipfel, Virginia
"I reinforced the mask yesterday and will use the gesso on it today. I really do love it!
I cannot even believe that I am not planning on decorating it at this point. I want to
leave it plain for now, but will help my daughter decorate it if she thinks we should at
a later date. Thank you again. I can't tell you how much I love it."
- S. Hart, NV
"I love the idea of being able to preserve my pregnancy, to preserve the image of my fertile
body, the womb where my child grew."
- S. Burrous, California
"I can't wait to receive my bellymask kit in the mail. My husband is even more excited
than I am about keeping my belly forever. He's not the one who can't tie his tennis shoes!
Thank you for providing a way for us to remember this forever."
- K. Calvert, North Carolina
"We are still enjoying the memory of making my bellymask using the kit. It was a wonderful
expereience and a perfect way to mark the due date. Now that the baby is born, I love having
the bellymask!"
- L. Roberts, Washington D.C.
"When I painted my bellymask, my sources of inspiration were often images of
mother goddesses or traditional tribal designs. Painting was a meditation. I
could feel the sacred connection of all mothers throughout time."
- C. Catterall, California
"I am fortunate enough to be blessed with a second pregnancy. Your kit will help
me celebrate all the stages of this pregnancy. It's something I will treasure the
rest of my life."
- C. Williams, NY
"We've just made our second bellymask and are thinking of giving our midwife
the 5 month bellymask as a present. She loved it and wished to paint one!"
