Silent Night
Mould | 6" × 10"
Silent Night is a beautifully detailed nativity mould inspired by one of the most requested holiday designs from the IOD community. Every element has been thoughtfully sculpted to capture the timeless beauty and meaning of the Christmas story—from the elegant folds of the angel’s fabric and delicate feather details to the sweet sheep and precious Baby Jesus figure.
The angel can also be used on its own as a beautiful ornament or tree topper, while the stars and sheep make charming standalone embellishments for a variety of seasonal projects.
Perfect for ornaments, signs, focal pieces, and meaningful holiday décor, Silent Night offers endless creative possibilities. Create a classic nativity scene with soft creams, sepias, and neutral tones paired with elegant "O Holy Night"typography, or cast the stars in clear resin to create luminous hanging ornaments that reflect the wonder and beauty of the season.
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.
