Hi there Lloyd:
Check this out… here’s a recipe for how to make your own clay paint from three simple ingredients.
Clay paint can be used on a variety of surfaces, including drywall. That means you can easily give very standard interior walls a distinctive earthen texture and appearance. It looks really great — I just finished a wall in the bathroom here.

looks nice.
also very cool. Guess when it gets dirty, or the kid throws his spaghetti at the wall, you just scrape off spaghetti and re apply the clay mix…All good. Grin
…or just throw on more spaghetti?
Peter…grin..Maybe so, maybe so. Maybe add some shellac on top of old spaghetti to make it water proof, etc.. Call it art, worth a fortune. Grin,
