Corn Starch – This will keep your clay from sticking to the mould and allow for your finished product to fall out of the mould easily.
Paper Clay – Paper clay is the product we will use to create the final product.
Putty Knife – Any putty knife will do! It will be used to level out the paper clay once it’s put in the mould.

Tips for using Iron Orchid Designs Moulds:
When using IOD Moulds, apply a layer of cornstarch to allow for easier removable.
You can use paper clay or resin to fill the IOD Moulds. Resin dries faster, but isn’t as malleable. We prefer to use paper clay at the shop.
If using paper clay, be sure that you always wrap your leftover clay in order to keep it from drying out. The key is to get it airtight.
When applying your IOD Moulds, use a very fine layer of wood glue. We like to use Titebond at the shop.
