To make plaster, approximately 1 1/2 cups of boiling water are salted and mixed with 4 cups of flour. The mixture is set aside until it is cool enough to handle, yet still warm to the touch. The plaster is then molded into the desired shape by hand or by using specially designed arts-and-crafts molds. An alternate plaster of Paris recipe calls for glue and water. To make this version, two parts of diluted white glue are mixed with one part warm water.
You will be able to see the slip sticking to the mold and thickening. At this stage you can gently knock the sides of the mold with the ball of your hand or with a rubber mallet to free any air bubbles which may be trapped in the clay. The bubbles will rise to the surface. As the clay wall thickens, water is absorbed by the plaster mold and the level of the slip will drop.
