Top job there SandandSun. Close up shows very interesting mottled colours,, must be all those powdered minerals/gems.
Is that a quartz point poking out the apex ? How did you do that ? Powerful units, eh !
Good one..thanks for sharing.Love em!!!!
Excellent! I get the color change in mine too from adding extra goodies. First couple that I made I had added lots of cinnamon and even some amber powder, and got a slight mocha coloration to them. They still smell just incredible as well. My favorite at this point, after trying to refine and cut back on what I put in, is still adding Nag Champa oil into the mix. It makes the pieces smell heavenly! LOL How did you get that crystal at the apex?? That looks to be a point or something sticking out of the big cone…. unless you were able to jam it into the cone to block that top hole, and then filled it up????
Now that would work maybe, if it was a good fit…. It’s got me thinking, I was going to pour a smaller cone one of these nights, just got too busy suddenly to use all the new materials I inherited! Thank you for the inspiration, I’ve got to figure out how I’m going to accomplish that, I’ve got some really nice quartz points I could use for that!It “seems” there is lots happening in the world right now, from reading lots of the back end websites that talk about the “real” world. I keep praying that our contribution, the plasterite and orgonite that we all make, gift or use, is helping to move us forward into an era of peace and prosperity for all! AHO!
Hugs!

Stephen, Tony, Thank you!
bluish color came from the blue urethane resin dye, which I bought earlier for coloring resin pieces… I guess, that it wasn’t the right substance, as it did not dissolve completely, instead it primarily stayed on top of the mixture, but had pretty swirls to it. I would try to use some natural dyes next time…
Interestingly there was some sort of reaction, which resulted in patches of warm turquoise colors, which I absolutely love... I think that might’ve resulted from the mixture of tee tree and eucalyptus oils, which I added, as well. It seems some ingredients caused a reaction, as the pieces, specially the big guy
was very warm to the touch for more then half a day… I also added some of the minerals – chromium and zinc picolinates… Both of them have a strong cinnamon/tee tree oil smell now, as some of the herbs are exposed on the surface, patches of burgyndy red. I planned to paint them with swirls, but I am not too sure now …The crystal point at the apex came as a pleasant surprise, as it wasn’t intended. I covered the top cone opening with the tape (probably left it loose) and the crystal sunk to the bottom of the cone and out through the opening, but still was probably supported by tape, as the plasterite did not leaked through it.
I will probably cut the top opening a little wider next time, for the crystal to show even more
I also think I added too much salt, as my proportions were:
12 lb of plaster
3 liters of water
2 lb of Himalayan salt
1000 ml of sandin any case…. it sparkles a lot from the salt crystals, especially when exposed to sun
thank you, everyone for this wonderful recipe and countless inspirations, and I hope it will contribute to the piece, prosperity and hormony
Anna
Anna did you crush all of those crystals?,
When I look to your recipe again and again I think you must be a wonderful cook
joshjosh, thank you! crushed crystals came form the gilmerrockshop in texas: http://www.gilmerrockshop.com/servlet/t … Categories
this was my first order from them, probably a bit pricey, but very convinient, i didn’t built my own crusher yet ( i am a bit hesistant to crush the crystals myself, one day i might) … also, i wasn’t sure how much crystals/powder to put in, so i used around 1/2 teaspoon of each.
i do like to cook though
sometimes i get carried away with spices, but dishes turnout to be eatable, which is good Oh how Beautiful!
A very elaborate and intricate first attempt, and excellent results vibrationally, I am sure.
I salute you
!I am still gathering materials for my first effort- and am so impatient
!You have done a wonderful job, I know you’ll love those pieces.
Thank you very much for posting, and please report when they’re cooked what you experience from them, OK?
Linda
Linda, thank you! it took me a while (probably close to 3 weeks) to collect all the ingredients, but I am so happy that i did it
I think you would love your pieces when you make them, i’ve had a lot of fun making them
I’ve been collecting different type of materials for few months now, so I am planning to do another batch soon, to have a matching pair
It feels really good to be around the pieces, the sky looks brighter, with not much clouds around my area, though there are almost constant overcasts now, but it clears up usually by the day’s end… Pieces totally dried up now, and look a bit frosted, from salt probably…
will be waiting for the pics to see your creations
annaAlright you lovely Plasterite makers, after some time has passed I can see that the amount of salt that I/we put in the mixture is way to much, it appear to come out of the plaster after a while. So I reduced the amount I put in; now I have reduced the salt volume to a tablespoon for a 25 pound bag, and we shall see the results from that change.
I do not want to completely eliminate the salt for all its minerals present within, but I have been putting in way too much.
New pictures coming soon
JoshJosh,
I noticed the same thing, the big cone looks almost completely frosted now, the little one was exposed to some humidity and when dried up for the second time, looks as in the first picture, but was frosted with white prior to getting a little wet… What’s interesting, is that the salt was pinkish gray, but the frosting is bright white color…
