Coloring Resin Ideas
by: Trish

The EasyCast Company makes transparent liquid colors and powdered pigments made for resin - check your craft store - they may have the liquid ones - powdered ones online at: eti-usa

I also found that Pearl-Ex pigments work really well, but are also opaque.

Haven't tried any other methods, but know the above work! Good luck on the resin - let us know how it comes out!

Coloring Resin
by: Ruth

HI- I have been using all sorts of things to color resin, including eye shadow and blush, food coloring, spices such as cinnamon, curry, red pepper, etc. My favorite is chalk or oil-free pastels. I scrape a little off the stick with an exacto knife and mix in with the resin. My favorite resin is the 5 or 30 minute clear (colorless) 2-part epoxy resin, mixed 1:1. It takes very little pigment to get a great color. Hope this helps.

PS-I always watch the sale tables for eye shadows in unusual colors. You can also use the bronze, "gold" and silver powders sold in art stores.
