Earth and Clay Plaster
Earth or Clay Plastering Guide
Bringing together our research and experiences of clay plastering (or ‘earthen plastering’) we have gathered together a fairly comprehensive set of resources that should be useful for anyone into diy renovation, using clay plaster, building with straw, or interested in environmentally sound natural building materials.

Navigate through it using the links to the right, or alternatively, you can also download a 35 page printer friendly pdf document of the guide, by right clicking here, and selecting save as…
We would encourage you, the reader, to post comments (using the comment box at the bottom of most pages) of your experiences, using clay plaster techniques and materials – doing so boosts the usefulness of this resource for everyone :)
