the buzz log

For the mom-to-be who has everything, consider "pregnant belly art," a growing trend in Search. You can get your favorite pregnant person a belly casting kit.

These days, not only are women proudly pregnant, they can immortalize the whole process in a cool, crafty way. Simply slather on plaster. Wait to dry. Remove cast. Decorate. Done.

The combination of amusement, pregnancy, and art sounds a little odd, but before you judge, check out the videos from Trendhunter. They document the process and offer cool photos of all the different ways to decorate the finished casts. (Baby bumps are transformed into a soccer ball, a Greek goddess, and the sun, for a start.)

If your subject is not the artistic type, leave it to a professional. A video making traction in Search will create made-to-order casts of pregnant moms.

For those baby mamas who aren't wild about having their maternity moment captured in plaster, take heart: the true work of art will be here soon enough.
