Tulips Mould by IOD - Iron Orchid Designs

One Single 6" x 10" Mould

Tulips Mould:

Perfect for spring, this beautiful 6x10” Tulip Mould was inspired by an 1838 pencil sketch sourced from Paris. We designed the tulips to work as a full bouquet or as individual blooms, with large bloom heads that can stand alone and stems that are easy to extend in your projects.

Project ideas for Tulips Mould:

The petals have an organic sense of movement drawn from the vintage reference, and the leaves feature the detailed veining and natural curl you expect from our IOD moulds. With multiple elements, you can build so many arrangements. Imagine how darling it would be built up inside one of our arched or oval wood blanks, and how perfect it would be for Easter signage paired with our Spring Garden or Les Lapin Moulds. 

Use for:

• Upcycling Furniture

• Jewellery
• and much, much more!

IOD Moulds can be used with a range of mediums and are FOOD SAFE.

For upcycling furniture and craft projects we recommend:

Air Dry or Paper Clay:

IOD paper clay is an air dry medium. Like most paper pulp
based air dry clays, some shrinking, warping, and cracking is inherent.

We like these qualities for a distressed, authentically vintage look. You can apply moulded pieces by removing them from the mould while still moist, and
adhering them to the surface with the appropriate glue so it conforms well. For
vertical surfaces, use a piece of low tack tape to hold it in place so it
doesn’t slide.

You can also try Jovi Air Dry White Modelling Clay.

Casting Resin:

We recommend Amazing Casting Resin

Resin has completely different qualities than the paper clay. There is no shrinking or warping, and the castings are more consistent. Depending on the project, these qualities can be helpful. If you need to conform them to a curved surface, this can be done if removed from the mould before it’s completely hardened.
