Lady Lumps

Okay I'm all about savoring memories and whatever, but have you seen/heard of/done a belly cast?!?

Behold:
Is this not strange and a little creepy to anyone else?  I mean, really.  I'm a supporter of fine art and all, but this is a category all its own.


However, I did find this one on flickr and its sparkly ways almost had me convinced this was a good idea:
But rest assured, I'll not be casting my body parts anytime soon.

Ya...I'm not sure I'd want my boob-ettes casted and hanging on a wall. That's a bit too much for me

I'm VERY glad to hear that you wont be participating in that strange form of whatever you want to call it. hahaha!

I know this is going to seem weird, but I have always thought belly casts were so neat. I mean I dont think people should have them hanging around their house as or anything but I will probably do one :)

I wouldn't be surprised if that first one was of Demi Moore. She looked pretty good when she was pregnant and posed nude for a magazine cover. I have to admit, it is pretty shocking to open your blog spot and BAM! Naked pregnant lady. By the way, this sort of casting is very common/popular in Paris. We saw a shop there that did castings -- mostly booby castings. Very Rodin (19th century sculptor).

I know that I feel disbelief that my body can look that way when pregnant and a belly cast would be proof for me! But... where would I put it? It would be creepy in the nursery. Strange in the bedroom. Stranger in the kitchen. Maybe they are just art museum pieces!
