Autumn Cottage Mould by IOD - Iron Orchid Designs

The Autumn Cottage mould merges classical fall motifs with gourd-geous seasonal charm. The heritage-style pumpkin, wheat, and fall leaves are quintessential elements that will complement your fall projects. 

For all our upcyclers, create chargers, napkin rings, and centre pieces with clustered elements from Autumn Cottage and pair them with yummy warm tones to make your Thanksgiving dining table sing. We love how it just oozes that cozy, rustic charm we crave in our fall projects and decor.

Moulding mediums for IOD Moulds

IOD Moulds can be used with many different mediums. 

IOD moulds are food safe.

Every medium has its own characteristics, challenges, and virtues. For 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.

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.
