Beginner-Friendly Chic Thanksgiving Centerpiece with IOD Moulds
Today, we have a special treat for you. Sally’s daughter, Olivia, will be your guide to creating a Fall centerpiece that is simple but elegant. Olivia, guides you through crafting a simple yet elegant Fall centerpiece. Watch as Olivia brings a chic, neutral palette to life, using off-white paint on our Hello Pumpkin mould with air-dry clay. We love how the piece transforms when you add the dark wax, accentuating those intricate details and giving the centerpiece a sense of depth and texture.
Here’s a Pro Tip: Always layer on a coat of clear wax before you go in with the dark wax. This clever tactic ensures that your piece doesn’t become overly dark or muddied in appearance. Olivia is fairly new to working with IOD, so we’ll all learn together in this very beginner-friendly tutorial.
