The Art of Belly Painting: Everything You Need to Make Your Pregnancy a Masterpiece 2 reviews
Nancy J. Price
Chamberlain Bros., 2005
Great idea, lame execution
The only reason I'm giving this 2 stars instead of 1 is because it inspired me. It was a cute gift from my mom, but the paint colors are AWFUL. The brush it comes with is WAY too stiff. The stencils pictured on the box are not the ones it comes with. They could've used the book to SHOW designs ...

Good quality, but needs some design work...
I ordered this before reading the reviews, or else I may have made a different choice. The materials and workmanship are great, which I would expect for the price. I am short (5'2") and did manage to get it to fit me comfortably, using both clips, although it does seem a little excessive to have ...
