Earthen Plastering


Here I am plastering a wall. The plaster is called "Earthen Plaster" and has a similar composition as cob with different ratios of clay to sand, finely chopped straw (cob has full stalks of straw) and silica powder to help it bond better. It is Much more natural than drywall mud/plaster and it's prettier, too (I guess that's my opinion :). Plastering is hard work!
