VICTORIANA

Say hello to Victoriana, a Victorian-inspired mould ready to adorn the sweetest holiday keepsakes. These dainty little bits are the perfect elegant adornments for special projects.

Victoriana is filled with ornate details to dress up your pretties with vintage sophistication. Picture a festive focal point on a keepsake box, or a delicate brooch centered on a handmade ornament. Use the tassels to add a touch of luxe to small furniture corners or drawers, because why not give those petite pieces the royal treatment?

We especially love Victoriana for holiday baking. Imagine the enchanting fondant details that look like they came straight from a Victorian tea party. 🩷

Use with our IOD Air Dry Clay, which was formulated to work with all of our IOD Moulds, or Amazing Casting Resin by Alumilite, which offers a near perfect cosmetic casting.

IOD Décor Moulds can be used with many different mediums. We will cover the two most common here. Every medium has its own characteristics, challenges, and virtues.

Air dry clay, or paper clay: IOD paper clay is an air dry medium, and one of our favorites. 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. Our favorite way to apply moulded pieces is to remove them from the mould while still moist, and adhere 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 resins: There are some great pourable resins available. These have 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.

On releases: We find that most of the time a release is not necessary and the casting will come out without the use of a release, however, if you are having trouble with the material sticking (more common with clays than resins), a light dusting of simple cornstarch or arrowroot is a great choice.
