Belly Bump Casting Training with Precious Memories

Belly Bump Casting Training in the UK – Christina’s Journey from Cyprus to Learn with Precious Memories

It’s always a great privilege when someone chooses to travel from far and wide to learn a craft. Christina travelled all the way from Cyprus to attend my one-to-one belly bump casting course in Dorset. She had researched the market in Cyprus and found a huge demand for belly bump casting, but no one offering this creative service. Her journey wasn’t just physical; it was part of her career transition from accountancy to something more creative and fulfilling. I’m honoured that she chose Precious Memories to begin this exciting new chapter.

One-to-One Belly Bump Casting Training: What You’ll Learn at Precious Memories

All my training courses are tailored to each individual. This one-on-one approach allows me to guide my students through every step of the process, ensuring they gain confidence and skill, no matter their background. Christina had never worked with mod-roc before, but she was eager to learn the technique. During the course, Christina worked on two models.

With the first model, she created a classic belly bump cast, learning the intricacies of moulding and shaping. For the second model, she crafted a more detailed piece, including the belly bump, boobs, and part of the arm, which gave her hands-on experience with different body shapes and casting techniques. These skills are essential for anyone wanting to offer belly bump casting as a service in their area.

After the casts dried in the rare UK sunshine, we moved on to the finishing stages: applying plaster, smoothing, and exploring artistic features. Christina now has the skills and confidence to offer belly bump casting services back in Cyprus.

Ongoing Support and Professional Guidance for Belly Bump Casting Business Success

Support doesn’t end when the course does. At Precious Memories, I offer ongoing advice and aftercare to all my students. Once Christina returned to Cyprus, she contacted me for further guidance, particularly when she struggled with plaster drying too quickly in the heat. Together, we tested different techniques until we found the perfect solution. I’m thrilled to say Christina has now completed her first belly bump cast for a client.

Christina left this wonderful review of her experience:

“Training with Glenda at Precious Memories was a fantastic experience. Her expertise and personalised approach made the course both enjoyable and informative. I now feel confident offering belly bump casting in Cyprus and can’t wait to return for more training!”

Christina later returned to train in 2D impressions and 3D casting, and now she’s offering maternity keepsakes to clients in Cyprus. Whether you’re new to belly bump casting or want to expand your skill set, I’d love to help you start your journey.

3D Casting Training with Student from India

Over two days, Trisha focused on mastering the art of 3D baby casting, covering the first two levels of training. Babies of all ages visited the studio, giving her hands-on practice with real clients—essential for learning lifecasting techniques. This experience helped build confidence while teaching the foundational skills needed to create beautiful baby hand and foot castings.

Practical training is at the heart of this 3D casting course, ensuring students gain the knowledge to start their own keepsake business. By the end of the workshop, Trisha had the skills to produce high-quality, professional keepsakes that families will treasure forever.

2D Impression One Day Course

On the third day, Trisha delved into the art of 2D impressions, using clay to create raised plaster tiles. By pressing a baby’s hand or foot into soft clay, she captured intricate details, turning them into a lasting keepsake. While this technique may seem simple at first glance, mastering it requires precision to ensure every finger and toe is perfectly formed.

As the day progressed, it became clear how these mini memories are a fantastic addition for anyone looking to expand their keepsake business. Offering personalised baby handprints and footprints can provide clients with a truly unique and meaningful keepsake, enhancing the variety of services you can offer.

Family Handcasting Course

For the final part of training, Trisha learned advanced 3D family handcastings, including techniques for creating linked arms and family tree castings. Family handcastings can be free-standing or wall-hung, while family tree castings are framed, offering versatile display options. Despite jet lag, cold, and language barriers, Trisha made the most of every minute of her training.

Since returning to India, Trisha has launched her own keepsake business, specialising in family handcastings and family tree castings. She even shared her positive experience in a glowing review on my Facebook page.

Review of 3D Casting workshop with Student from India

“The 3D, 2D, and family casting training at Precious Memories was truly exceptional,” said Trisha. “I’m so glad I chose Precious Memories over other training providers. Not only did I learn valuable techniques, but I also practised on real baby clients, which made the experience so much more meaningful.

“Although I travelled from India and the journey was long, it was 100% worth it! By the end of the training, every effort I made felt completely worthwhile. Glenda is an incredible teacher. Her natural ability to guide and support students made all the difference. Her expert instruction gave me confidence and clarity at every stage.

“I’m so excited to return home and start my own baby keepsake business. I hope to make Glenda proud with the work I’ll create. If you’re considering a career in this beautiful craft, I highly recommend Glenda’s 3D casting training at Precious Memories—no matter where you’re from.

“The personalised teaching, hands-on experience, and supportive environment are second to none. It’s a truly complete lifecasting course.”

As a bonus, staying in Dorset added something special. The peaceful scenery, relaxed pace, and friendly atmosphere made it the perfect place to learn. Whether you’re from the UK or overseas, this casting workshop in the UK is an experience worth travelling for!

I can’t wait to see Trisha’s progress in the coming months and know her new adventure will be a huge success.
