Ok, so I've embarked on a project. I'm creating centerpieces for a party with a beach theme and need to find some sort of sandcastles - ideally plaster of paris. I'm open to making them myself from pre-made molds, or painting the sand onto a plain plaster castle. Ideally the end result will be something like this attached picture. Any ideas as to where I can find the castles or a mold would be great! I've already tried Michaels and AC Moore - no luck!
How about toy stores and possibly looking into kiddie art projects? And yes I am serious

Re: Random Centerpiece Help Needed
Thanks for the suggestions alina. I tried a few online toy stores and all I found were icky plastic castles. I saw a few art projects but they all looked too handmade. I'm going to keep looking - I was just hoping to get this done without a whole lot of effort (ha!)
This particular picture looks exactly like a sandcastle piggy bank my granmother bought me when I was 8, and I think it would be really cool to have something as close to it as possible. I found one on e-bay, but I need at least 12. Maybe I can make a mold of it, but I'm not sure that is even possible.
Why do I find the weirdest things to obsess over?!??

Re: Random Centerpiece Help Needed
Well, another thing I think you can do is may be make a mold and then make a pottery type of thing?
