Profile Information
- About Me
- I started my company, Original Belly Works 4 years ago. Original Belly Works was born out of a desire to make my own contribution to the family budget while being a stay-at-home mom. I also wanted to create something tangible that would forever keep me connected to that special time in my life. I am a mother of 4 who has turned her hobby into a business. I have found that I am most innovative and productive when I am being stretched to my limit. Keeping with the extremely busy schedule that comes with raising children, like so many mothers I felt a deep need to experience something of my own. I always had a creative craving and have always been trying to find my own artistic voice. My company has taken a fairly new concept and revolutionized it. Original Belly Works takes belly casting to a whole new dimension. . We provide kits for pregnant women, so they can create a plaster mold of their pregnant tummy. We can fiber glass the plaster molds of the pregnant mommies tummy, decorate them and create lasting keepsakes for the mother and child. I began casting to create a lasting heirloom for each of my children. In so doing, my friends and family were so amazed at the detail, the artistry, and the overall concept that they suggested I create a business doing what I'd been so passionate about and Original Belly Works was conceived. I am proud to announce that I have officially given birth to 'My Baby'. Like all proud mothers, I am enjoying watching my 'Baby' grow and develop. It hasn’t always been easy, but who said ‘Motherhood‘ was. But it has been very rewarding.
I never imagined that I would make my career as an artist. But inspiration and ‘LIFE’ has a funny way of giving us wings and courage! I am grateful to my family and to God for such a rich and rewarding opportunity.
The Original Belly Works Kit Makes a Great:
*Keepsake
*Heirloom
*Baby Shower Gift
*Nursery Décor

Your product is a truly brilliant idea :)
We have a six year-old son - with no plans for more - but should we go down that road again, I would definitely recommend OBW to my wife. The gallery is stunning!
Thanks again for adding me as a friend.
Take care and keep in touch,
