Pam Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I have a request to make a sage green coloured candle. I am struggling to figure out what colour combinations to use to make a sage green colour. TIAPam F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
glittergirl Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 I use liquid dye. I use a drop of green to 1 # wax, then add a "toothpick tip" of brown to achieve the desired color. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candybee Posted February 18, 2010 Share Posted February 18, 2010 Try equal amount of brown and green. I use this for olive green. Its very pretty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella1952 Posted February 19, 2010 Share Posted February 19, 2010 For a sage color, I use a combo of several parts of green, a part of blue and a part of black. Brown always made mine too "olive-y." Different shades of liquid color in different quantities of wax will yield different results, so you have to play with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen M Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 Lonestar has a nice green liquid dye that is sage, I believe its bayberry /eucalyptus color Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starr Posted February 21, 2010 Share Posted February 21, 2010 I primarily use dye chips and have found that bayberry chips are a nice olive/sage green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
