Candlegranny Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Does anybody know what I could use in color blocks, straight parrifin to achieve a sage green or sometimes I have heard it called muted green. Sorta like the color of yankee's meadow mist or sage & citrus color. I was thinking use either a sage, hunter, or kelly color lightly with some added brown to sorta mute it??? Any ideals on what to use would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Jane Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fredron Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 If you add a little brown to green, you will begin to get into the olive shades. I use a drop of brown with 2 drops of green/pound of wax to get an olivy color for my Nantucket Briar. I'm thinking sage green would be in that range.Fredron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Candle Man Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Yep, Green & Brown, you will have to test %'s till you get the shade you are looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
melissa5 Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I found a wonderful sage green also at Jo-Ann Fabrics. $2.49 for a square. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
