Mtngrl Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 Not exactly sure what 'burnt orange' looks like, but have you thought about adding some brown? With liquids, which is what I have, maybe 1 drop red, 3-5 drops yellow, 1 drop brown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheila sullivan Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I add a little brown to my orange. You can also try mixing brown and red depending on how deep of a color you want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMeeks Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I use the Spiced Pumpkin liquid dye from LoneStar. It turns out that exact color every time! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaryinCary Posted August 8, 2005 Share Posted August 8, 2005 I have mandarin color block and add some brown to it. It turns out pretty close to that. HTH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oceangazer1 Posted August 9, 2005 Share Posted August 9, 2005 I get the perfect spiced pumpkin by adding equal parts of orange and brown. It comes out awesome everytime. Learned that on the NG board years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
