I’m a (new!) middle school science teacher, and while learning about the fossil record, I wanted to give my kids something fun to take away from this. We used some fossils, playdoh, and this to make molds and imprints. My kids loved it, and they felt like it was a valuable lesson. ## Features - Safe & Best Plaster of Paris: This plaster casting powder is made from 100% natural materials, a non-toxic blend specially formulated to create the most accurately detailed casting kits from your molds or whatever you can imagine - Easy to Mix: Mixing Ratio 3 Parts Water to 4 Parts Plaster solidifies in 3-4 minutes and dries to a hard consistent finish in 30 minutes, after the mold is dried, you can paint patterns with a marker pen, watercolor pen, and other painting tools and send to others as a gift - Wide Applications: High-quality, quick-setting, and lightweight white plaster casting material in a waterproof bag suitable for craft projects, patterns, commercial castings, masks, jewelry, sculptures, latex molds, and home decoration - Thoughtful Present: Gypsum plaster suitable for all moments including Mother's Day, birthdays, graduations, anniversaries, to create hand molds or other nice memories - Classic Formula: Features a rich creamy texture for smooth finished plaster powder casts every time with intimate moldability that molds to every contour for a precise fit - Quick Set Times: Features improved plaster formula for consistency with very low wet or dry plaster loss for a creamy mold and reliable results ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #5,081 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ( See Top 100 in Arts, Crafts & Sewing ) #47 in Sculpture Molding & Casting Products | | Customer Reviews | 4.4 out of 5 stars 5,424 Reviews | ## Images ![Plaster of Paris, 1lb - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/615YLnzQhqL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this work for Bigfoot casts?** A: From personal experience this stuff works great but get the 5 pound bag instead of the 1 pound bag, I casted a 36" x 16" adult male skunk ape and the 1 pound bag wouldn't cover it. **Q: Would this be good for a DIY 'gem or fossil dig brick'?** A: Possibly. It depends on how thick the end result would be. We made a very thick mold and that would not work well. **Q: Can this be used to make a model for dentures?** A: If you mean can it be used in the human mouth, in dental trays, I would say no. Unless it says it's non-toxic and "food grade" (acceptable for human consumption) I would say no. **Q: Ingredients? is this calcium sulphate heptahydrate?** A: Our Plaster of Paris, quick-setting gypsum plaster consisting of a fine white powder (calcium sulfate hemihydrate), which hardens when moistened and allowed to dry. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good quality *by H***E on August 22, 2026* What can I say but I expected plaster and I got plaster ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Worth It! *by K***E on June 27, 2026* I loved this! I’m a (new!) middle school science teacher, and while learning about the fossil record, I wanted to give my kids something fun to take away from this. We used some fossils, playdoh, and this to make molds and imprints. My kids loved it, and they felt like it was a valuable lesson. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I’ve worked with this stuff before and it works really good *by L***N on February 14, 2026* This will be good for getting mom’s footprints in plaster Paris. She was a little girl when she was outside walking and wet cement so there are footprints nearby so I would like to get them put in and make them a little art project having sitting where mom was. Before she passed. ## Frequently Bought Together - Falling in Art 1lb Plaster of Paris Powder - Hand Mold Casting Kit Powder, Gypsum Cement, Pottery & Ceramic Plaster Powder for Crafts, Sculpture, Diorama and Home Decor - Crayola Air Dry Clay (5lbs), Natural White Modeling Clay for Kids, Sculpting Material, Bulk Craft Supplies for School Classrooms - Falling in Art Plaster Cloth Rolls, 500gsm Plaster Strip, Plaster Gauze Bandages for Craft Projects, Mask Making, Belly Casts, Body Molds, 4inch x180inch, Single roll --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/49712579-plaster-of-paris-1lb](https://www.desertcart.co.za/products/49712579-plaster-of-paris-1lb) --- *Product available on Desertcart South Africa* *Store origin: ZA* *Last updated: 2026-08-31*
