Review: Belly Art ‘Baby Imprint Kit’

October 7 2014 By melbournemamma Leave a Comment

I was recently sent some Belly Art Baby Imprint Kits to review.

 

Baby Imprint Kits create a lasting impression of your child’s hand or feet using this special impression material. The Belly Art Imprint kit is like no other – it’s not plaster or clay so there is no baking or mixing. It’s so easy to use, baby safe and mess free!

Who better to help me out with the review than two lovely mammas and their little ones. Here’s what they had to say…..

Suzie & Finn (11 months)

 

When the kit arrived, Finn was eager to get it open and make a print.

It looked easy enough to use but I got a girlfriend to help me on the day because Finn is a bit of a wriggler, so wasn’t sure if I could do it by myself.

 

The white mixture was a bit difficult to remove from the packet because it was sticking to the plastic but once we got it out and starting to knead it, it was not sticky at all.

 

After kneading for a couple of minutes, we rolled it out on my stone benchtop using a wooden rolling pin.

To make it big enought to fit in the tin, we had to roll it to about 5mm thick. Once we had cut out the circle using the tin. I got my girlfriend to hold the tin still while I placed Finn’s hand in the white mixture.

After holding it there and pressing down for a few seconds, I removed his hand and had a perfect print. I then used a pin to write his name.

I can’t wait to put it on display in Finn’s room.

 

 

Jane & Eva (2 weeks)

 

Hubby and I were excited to try this product for our daughter and make her first foot prints.

 

We found the white stuff a little hard to get out of the plastic bag, but once we started to knead it, it was ok.

We loved that if we didn’t get it right the first (or second) time, we could re roll it and try again. It took us a couple of attempts to get it right.

Neither of us are very crafty but we found the product easy to use and were very happy with the finished product 🙂

 

We can’t wait to hang it on Eva’s wall.

The Baby Imprint Kits retails for only $24.95. For more information on the Baby Imprint Kit or Belly Art, visit www.bellyart.com.au.

 

Thanks to Belly Art, I have three Baby Imprint Kits to give away to lucky Melbourne Mamma readers. You could either use the kit for your little one or give it to someone as a gift.

I actually finished this book over a month ago and I actually finished this book over a month ago and it still haunts me. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
It’s definitely not a book for the faint hearted and I found I could only read about 100 pages at a time (it’s 700+ pages) before I’d need a break.⁣
⁣⁣
I wasn’t sure if I was even going to make it to the end but I quickly became invested in the characters and was glad that I did because even though this is an incredibly sad and heartbreaking story, it’s also a story of extraordinary friendships and love.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
My Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⁣⁣⁣⁣.5⁣⁣
⁣⁣
“A Little Life is an immensely powerful and heartbreaking novel of brotherly love and the limits of human endurance.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
When four graduates from a small Massachusetts college move to New York to make their way, they're broke, adrift, and buoyed only by their friendship and ambition. There is kind, handsome Willem, an aspiring actor; JB, a quick-witted, sometimes cruel Brooklyn-born painter seeking entry to the art world; Malcolm, a frustrated architect at a prominent firm; and withdrawn, brilliant, enigmatic Jude, who serves as their center of gravity. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Over the decades, their relationships deepen and darken, tinged by addiction, success, and pride. Yet their greatest challenge, each comes to realize, is Jude himself, by midlife a terrifyingly talented litigator yet an increasingly broken man, his mind and body scarred by an unspeakable childhood, and haunted by what he fears is a degree of trauma that he'll not only be unable to overcome - but that will define his life forever.”⁣⁣

I always worry that when I read the second book in I always worry that when I read the second book in a series that I’m not going to enjoy it as much as the first but boy was I wrong with this one. ⁣
⁣
This book is bloody fabulous and I actually think I loved it more than I loved “Beartown” (which was fantastic!!! - see my post last month).⁣
⁣⁣⁣
This beautifully written story has it all; strength, love, family, grief, loyalty, courage and loss. ⁣
⁣
You’ve done it again @backmansk and I cannot wait to read the next one #impatientlywaiting ⁣
⁣⁣⁣
My Rating: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⁣⁣⁣⁣⭐️⁣⁣⁣⁣
⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
“Can a broken town survive a second tragedy?⁣
⁣
By the time the last goal is scored, someone in Beartown will be dead . . .⁣
⁣
Us Against You is the story of two towns, two teams and what it means to believe in something bigger than yourself. It's about how people come together - sometimes in anger, often in sorrow, but also through love. And how, when we stand together, we can bring a town back to life.”⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣⁣
