Why we love IOD Moulds . Let me count thy ways! IOD Moulds are made from food safe materials. This particular mold features a micro-rim, a raised edge around each mould, which creates a crisp clean edge along the base of your casting. Plus, you can use so many mediums: Think: polymer clay, most casting resins, air dry clay, earthen clay, hot glue, wax and yes, chocolate! Put away the hook, that's definitely not all folks! it has measuring marks too! WHAT?!. Washes with soap and water, BPA free!
Order Processing: Please allow 2-5 business days to process and have your fun items leave our doors. Hand painted items may take up to two weeks.

DIFFERENT MEDIUMS:
IOD 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.
