Charlbury Lane
Mould | 6" × 10"
Charlbury Lane is a charming collection of English-inspired cottages, thoughtfully designed to fit together and create a beautiful village streetscape. Inspired by classic architecture, each cottage features unique details including cathedral windows, arched dormers, leaded glass, Tudor influences, timber framing, and stonework, allowing every piece to stand beautifully on its own while coordinating perfectly with the others.
Perfect for shadow boxes, Christmas villages, mantel displays, illuminated nightlights, and year-round village scenes, Charlbury Lane offers endless creative possibilities. These delightful cottages are especially fun to paint, customize, and bring to life, making it easy to create cozy village displays filled with timeless charm, warmth, and personality.
Food safe. The IOD 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.
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 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.
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.
