Preparing The Work Area for Belly Casting

"In this clip, I'm going to talk about preparing your work area for doing a belly casting. You want to make sure you're in a comfortable environment. It needs to be cool because you are using warm to hot water and so we have had issues with pregnant women getting overheated. You want to make sure that you have a table of comfortable height for you who's doing the casting, so you can lay out your plaster. You want to make sure you have a drop cloth because it does drip and get very messy. You want all your materials handy, your bowl filled about halfway with the warm water. Your plaster cut already. Gloves handy, your petroleum jelly handy. It's also helpful to have a stool or a chair nearby for the pregnant woman who you are casting. She may need to lean or sit. Have a trash can nearby to get rid of all the waste from the plaster. You may have plaster that gets crumpled and you don't want to use it. You want to make sure you get rid of it right away. And in this clip, we told you how to prepare your work area for a belly casting."
