How to mix polymer clay colors
Mixing your own colors is not only fun, but much easier than you might think. You don’t even need a precision scale for that. Simply use ratios and you will be able to consistently achieve the same shades over and over again.
As you will see in the color recipes below, you simply have to pick one measurement or shape and apply it to each color mixing. For example, you can roll a slab of clay that is 2mm thick and use a round cutter to cut clay pieces that will be the base for your measurement. When the recipe says 3 parts white and 1/2 black, simply mix 3 white circles with half of a black circle. Pretty simple, isn’t it?
