In this clip I'm going to talk about what medium you're going to use to decorate your
completed belly cast. You want to make sure that if you are going to have kids help you
paint your belly that you pick a simple design for the kids to do. Also, I've found that
using acrylic paints work best, especially when you're dealing with kids. It washes up
great, easy to work with. You could also use stamps on your belly. Again, with acrylic
paints works best. There is a wide variety of stamps out there that you can choose from
to go with your nursery decor, your other decor throughout your house. Also, little
stencils you can use, again, a great variety out there at the craft stores to choose from.
You could also pick stamps if you're not good at printing with paint you can use stamped
alphabet letters. Also, sponging techniques work great on the belly. Decoupage techniques
work, either with tissue paper or with a photo of your baby. If you're going to use a photo
of your child make sure that it's on regular copy paper. That is what medium to use when
decorating your belly casting.
