I have a million vaiation on coloures but not the actual colours. It's MADDENING. I can't FIND just plain green dye! WTF!

ARG. ><

So.. yeah... people hwo want colourful candles, y ou get to have funky colours. ^^ Cause I have too manyu random ass colours I can't really use well.

Noone asks for a bloody Antique Violet coloured candle... or a Wedgewood blue or a Taupe one [I'm not even sure what in heck colour taupe IS... I think it's a brown, but... eesh.

So with all the massise of candle dye I have... I have to buy blue wax dye -_-

Green is the hardest color to make... you know why? Because Green is a concept. The crayola crayon concept of green is really hard to make too, because it requires a subtle mixing of a forest green or a light green with either yellow or blue. It was tough to get a good green in oils, but try viridian.
