How to Make Interior Clay Paint
Monday July 18, 2022
We'll explore different types of interior clay and milk paints and variations on common materials used, all completely non toxic and durable for interior use. We will show types of smooth and textured paints, with and without pigments, and discuss whether the paint would or would not benefit from additional care depending on where it will be installed (bathroom, kitchen, etc).
Clay paints can be very fun because it can give your home or an accent wall the look of having been plastered with only this thin finish layer. They can also be tinted to multiple colours for murals and other detailed painting projects, or made smooth if there is a desire to simply emulate flat latex paint but have the soft, non-toxic touch of clay.
Sign up in advance and we can make paint for your project with a materials fee! It will run approximately the same price or a little less than standard latex paint unless you bring your own materials.
You can use clay paints over most any surface, plaster, drywall, sculptures, plywood, wood, and even stone with proper care.
