Cover the floor with drop cloth.

Cut rolls of plaster tape into 18 inch lengths.

Fill a basin with warm water.

Wear a pair of panties which you don't mind discarding.

Sit on the edge of a chair to create a slanted angle between your thighs and torso.

Generously slather your upper body with olive oil, including your shoulders, tops of your thighs, and around the sides of your torso.

Have your helper hold a strip of plaster tape at each end and slide it through the water for just a few seconds.

Hold the strip taut, and firmly smooth it over the belly.

Repeat, and slightly overlap the first strip.

Once you have a few strips in place, use your fingers to smooth this first layer of plaster.

Continue this process until you have 2 layers of plaster strips on your entire torso.

Be certain to cover the tops of your thighs and the breasts to help define the shape of your belly.

minutes after completing the last layer, hold the sides of the belly cast as you carefully wiggle out of it.

Shower or bathe to remove any residue, plus the olive oil.

Handle this cast with care until it has completely dried (48 hours).

Cut the edges and any excess to your liking.
