PermaResilience inspired 3 update

Hello All,

Here is the updated/finish walls with Clay paint. It was quite harder to apply then i had hoped for, had to do it all with hand brush, with the regular roller it didnt work well and wasnt able to find a rubber one. It needed two runs at it, and it was quite more paint than I had calculated. in total I did around 50 - 60 L of paint.

Recipe used:

1 part clay fine and dried

1 part masons sand (finest i couyld find)

1 part glue (You can use literally white glue, but i used a mix of cassava and tapioca flour, Half/half to 3 and half parts water. Must be cooked!!)

2 parts water

Linsen oil (1 L per 6L of volume of the other parts)

Cinnamon, Nutmeg Bay leaf and rosemary (experimenting, the idea is that it works as a natural repelent, not sure if it works though. All fine and passed through filter)

Overall I like the result, its a bit darker than I wished. Next ones will be better, brighter and different colors =)

PS: even if the spices don't work there is a nice cinnamon smell all around
