Mixing your own clay colors allows you to achieve precisely the hues you envision for your projects. In this post, we’ll take you through the process of creating a subtle and natural Willow Green. Follow our step-by-step guide to mix this soothing, earthy shade, perfect for projects that require a touch of nature’s tranquility.
Supplies
Polymer Clay
Polymer clay comes in a variety of colors. To mix the color Willow Green you will need the colors Poppy Seed and Canary Yellow in the Sculpey Souffle brand.
Black is a great polymer clay color to mix with to darken your color.
Condition the Clay
To condition the clay you will need an acrylic roller or my preferred method is using a pasta machine for clay.
A pasta roller makes it easy to condition your polymer clay. It also helps achieve a consistent thickness of your clay when creating earrings.
An Acrylic roller is a helpful tool to condition out your clay and make it more pliable and easier to work with.
