American Clay joined our long list of wallcovering possibilities last year, but have updated their website and made some other notable changes. The "earth plaster," made from pure clays and aggregates with coloring agents that come from natural, non-toxic oxides and ochre mineral pigments, now holds handy hands-on workshops to learn how to apply it; their blog also serves to update on the latest from the nontoxic interior finish company, which recently included a website visitor Q&A with the head honchos. The practical, environmentally-friendly alternative to cement, gypsum, acrylic, and lime plasters will cover most wall surfaces; learn more about their plasters in the recent episode of The Lazy Environmentalist about stylish green home makeovers. ::American Clay via ::The Lazy Environmentalist
