I’m learning more about color theory from the recipes than I could ever learn from a book. This is another beautiful palette. Thanks Doug for your uncanny ability to capture the beauty of nature, and to you, Cindy, for your uncanny ability to translate it into recipes we can incorporate into our work. What a [...]

You know, if you ever decide to give up clay, you’d probably be very successful at Interior Design. Your color palettes are awesome. ~Katie-C >> This comment was originally posted here: Polymer Clay Color Recipes
I totally agree that you just need to really “see” what you’re looking at and you’ll find inspiration everywhere. [...]

I am a painter and didn’t think that I would need the recipe cards because I am so used to mixing paint colors together… well… I LOVE THE RECIPE CARDS!!!  You have shown me that there are sooooooo many different colors that I can make from my clay!  So many different greens, blues, [...]

Your recipes for different colors are priceless and such a time saver. I took index cards, printed the color and recipe on them then glued a baked sample on the card. Now when I need that just so color, I can just find it on my index card and whip it up with out the [...]

Great Picture!! I really appreciate the inclusion of the color palette samples against the picture so that we can see the color against the source of inspiration for it. Hope you will make this a feature from now on. Really makes it more informative and inspiring for us to try our hand at it. ~MJ [...]

I like your color recipes and really would like more. I do have a problem with picking colors that look good together. I like earthtones and they do not reduce well, and tend to get lost in my designs when reduced. I have been working with polymer clay for quite some years now. I have [...]

I love the two shades of green. It really brings more dimension to a piece when I can emulate light and shadow. ~Kimberlee @ Sunflower Polymer Clay Colors
Can you say MUD!! I have had my fair share of mixing the wrong colors together. I have never had a course in color theory and learned pretty [...]

As a new polymer addict, it’s interesting to learn how custom colors are mixed. I’m learning that colors are mixed just as they are in a traditional painter’s palette, which is coming as quite a surprise. Still don’t understand the translucent clay, but I’m sure that I eventually will. ~TK @ Polymer Clay Color Mixing
