Wreath and Swags
For years, Josie and Sally looked for the right vintage ornamentation to inspire another wreath and swag set, and the 6x10” Wreath and Swags Mould finally brings that vision to life. Drawn from a 1901 ornament book, these designs were originally created for architectural embellishment, and we’ve scaled them down so they translate beautifully into décor and craft projects.
The set includes wreath components, swags, and refined bows that can be arranged in multiple configurations. Several pieces were intentionally sized to frame the rabbits from Les Lapin. Whether used to build a full wreath, accent furniture, or serve as a centerpiece on a larger décor piece, this set provides versatile, historically grounded ornamentation that transcends the ages.
Dimensions: 6" x 10"
We recommend using IOD Air Dry Clay

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.
