Old Colchester Road Mould | Iron Orchid Designs

One single 6” x 10” mould

OLD COLCHESTER ROAD - 

Inspired by the architectural facades of historic homes, Old Colchester Road features larger building fronts designed to coordinate beautifully with Charlbury Lane. The varied rooflines and increased height make it easy to create more dynamic, realistic villages with layered skylines, architectural variety, and a natural sense of depth.

Project ideas for Old Colchester Road Mould:

Perfect for holiday villages, shadow boxes, and custom displays, Old Colchester Road expands your creative possibilities while blending seamlessly with the rest of your village elements. Mix and match the facades to build charming streets with varied heights and distinctive character. But why limit yourself to Christmas villages? These are wonderful for year round making (spooky haunted house anyone?).

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.

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.
