Mom entrepreneurs conceive, give birth to some fascinating businesses

bellyworksWho would have ever thought that making a plaster cast of an expectant mother’s belly could be turned into a work of art, let alone a business?

Original Belly Works was born out of a desire to make my own contribution to the family budget while being a stay-at-home mom. I also wanted to create something tangible that would forever keep me connected to that special time in my life.

Tisha DeShields of Atlanta is one of 200 working mothers who have built successful businesses that topped the voting in StartupNation’s 2009 “Top 200 Leading Moms in Business” competition. “Original Belly Works” is one of 16 mom-owned ventures from the Carolinas (four in the Triangle) and Georgia that cracked the list. Belly Works came in at 126, but it’s the favorite of The Skinny.
