Darcy Camden, the Stylist of KING 5’s New Day Northwest television show, was one week overdue when she decided to have her belly cast made by BelliVita.
When our artist contacted her to find out what colors she’d like used in the creation of her blown glass bowl, Darcy was already in labor. “Just pick what you think would be best,” she said.
The resulting bowl features a soft, robins-egg blue exterior with a “golden sunrise” interior. Says Darcy…
“It’s amazing, just amazing! It turned out more beautiful than I ever could have picked. Besides the baby, it is the most beautiful thing in our house. Plus it’s so precious to have a treasured memento from the pregnancy because that goes away so quickly!”

A few days later when our artist contacted her to find out what colors Darcy would prefer in the creation of her blown glass bowl, Darcy was already in labor. “Just pick what you think would be best,” she said between deep breaths.

22 Dec 2013 Comments Off on Mama in the Now Reviews BelliVita’s Self-Casting Kit
“BelliVita’s Self-Casting kit included everything required to make a mess-free and simple belly casting: drop cloth, plastic gloves, vaseline, wipes and of course the plaster. I think both my husband and I were both apprehensive about the casting, worried that we would fail at this initial yet rather crucial step of the process. Finally, we pulled ourselves together and last weekend we spent a mere 30 – 40 minutes casting my belly. Jansen, our youngest, was a little worried about the mess we created, so he was quick to help clean up around me.”
