Handmade with love, right here in Bloemfontein.
Mould & Play Studio started with a simple idea: painting shouldn't need an art degree, and it shouldn't need to be perfect to be worth doing. Every figurine we cast is unpainted on purpose — the fun (and the mess) is yours to add.
What began as kits for kids' birthday parties has grown into something families, friend groups, and even offices use for a bit of unplugged, hands-on time together.

Everything we make is built around these three steps.
Paint
Each kit includes real acrylic paint and brushes — no extra shopping needed.
Create
There's no wrong way to paint a plaster turtle. That's the whole point.

Once dry, your figure is ready to keep on a shelf or give as a gift.
