Iron Orchid Designs - Mould - Hazel & Bay - LIMITD EDITION

IOD Hazel & Bay Decor Mould - Limited Edition - 6" x 10"

Create flowing botanical borders with the limited edition Hazel & Bay silicone mould from Iron Orchid Designs. Inspired by illustrations in a vintage book, this 6" x 10" decor mould features hazelnut and bayberry branches with a refined, historical architectural feel, ideal for decorative trims, wreaths and nature-inspired home décor.

The branches are designed to connect seamlessly, helping you build a continuous border around your project. Imagine a decorative charger edged with botanical castings, or a wreath assembled from softly painted branches. Use the designs as flowing trim or choose individual elements for smaller accents.

Botanical details for seasonal and everyday makes

Hazel & Bay works as a versatile addition to your decorative trimming collection. Arrange the branches around a focal piece, repeat them along an edge or use the smaller leaves to create charming ornaments. Your choice of colour and finish can take the designs from everyday botanical décor to a festive display.

Ideas for your next project

• Create continuous botanical borders for furniture and decorative plaques.
• Embellish decorative chargers with connecting branch designs.
• Build wreaths with vintage-inspired botanical detail.
• Make decorative napkin rings and bracelet designs.
• Use the smaller leaves for handmade hanging ornaments.
• Layer branches into seasonal mixed media artwork.

Highlight the botanical character

Try muted greens and natural tones for an illustration-inspired finish, or keep your castings tonal with the surrounding piece for a subtle architectural effect. Metallic highlights offer another way to bring the branches into your festive projects.

Using air dry clay and casting resin

Hazel & Bay can be used with air dry clay and casting resin. Air dry clay may shrink, warp or crack as it dries, adding character to vintage-inspired projects. Dust the mould lightly with cornflour to aid release, then remove the clay casting while still moist and adhere it to your surface. Low-tack tape can help support castings on vertical applications.

Casting resin produces consistent mouldings without the drying shrinkage associated with clay. For curved applications, a casting may be shaped before it has completely hardened; follow your chosen resin manufacturer's instructions for timing and handling.
