Winter Forage Mould (2025 Limited Release) by IOD - Iron Orchid Designs

IOD Winter Forage Decor Mould by Iron Orchid Designs is a beautifully detailed botanical mould that captures the charm of woodland sprigs, berries, and pinecones with intricate precision. Each design brings a touch of seasonal sophistication, perfect for projects that call for natural, winter-inspired elegance.

This mould evokes the look of freshly gathered foliage, ready to be arranged into festive accents or layered into timeless décor. Use the elements at the base of tall vases to frame seasonal arrangements, place them on either end of a fireplace for added interest, or incorporate them into frames, trays, and wood blanks for striking dimensional finishes.

The IOD inter Forage mould pairs beautifully with other botanical designs, such as the IOD ak Leaves & Acorns Mould, adding variety and texture for endless creative combinations. Crafted in high-quality food-safe silicone, it works well with a variety of mediums including casting resins, clay, fondant, and more.

Ideal for creating sophisticated holiday keepsakes, embellishing furniture, or designing seasonal décor, Winter Forage offers both refinement and versatility, making it a standout addition to any collection of decorative moulds.

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

Food safe. The IOD Décor Moulds are made from food safe materials (do not use the same set for food and crafts), and can be used to transform and create baked goods, furniture, soaps, jewelry, and just about anything you can think up in that creative brain of yours.

Mould Mediums. IOD Décor Moulds can be used with many different mediums. The most common mediums used in IOD Décor Moulds are Air Dry Clay and Resin. Every medium has its own characteristics, challenges, and virtues.

Air dry clay, or paper clay: IOD Air Dry 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, like Amazing Casting Resin. These have completely different qualities than the IOD Air Dry 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.

Casting 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.
