What Was The Genesis Of The Maternity Sash?

Maternity sashes, also known as belly sashes or pregnancy sashes, are a popular accessory in modern baby showers and pregnancy photo shoots. These beautifully crafted sashes are worn by expectant mothers around their baby bumps and can symbolize the transition into motherhood. The origins of babywearing can be traced back to natural materials like bark, leaves, and animal skins.

In this video, a beautiful maternity sash is shared for a future daughter-in-law Emily, who and her son are expecting a baby boy in early May. The song “Baby Wearing” is about 100 years old and likely based on a 19th-century Irish love song. Carrying babies has been a tradition in cultures around the globe for centuries, but in the Western world, it is a reviving art.

A simple DIY project to make a maternity sash belt involves ribbon, approximately 9 flowers, and a rhinestone button for bling. The ivory ribbon length is about 94 inches, and the sash was designed by our own designer with perfect color combinations.

A DIY Baby Shower Sash is another option that makes the mother-to-be feel extra special. The sash belt features eleven flowers in Ivory, Cream, Mustard, and Yellow colors, embellished with rhinestones and pearls. The sash belt is light-weighted and sits elegantly on the belly. There are six different designs to choose from, including a yellow bee written with Mommy to Bee and Daddy to Bee.
