Dags3777 Posted April 21, 2009 Report Posted April 21, 2009 I have been ask to make a shoulder bag, "Orange". I know yellow and red will make orange, does anyone have experience with dying something orange. Thanks in advance Darryl Quote When I was a kid I used to pray every night for a new bicycle. Then I realised God doesn't work that way, so I stole one and prayed for forgiveness.

No need to mix something that's already made. Quote Marlon
Members Tina Posted April 21, 2009 Members Report Posted April 21, 2009 Hi there, I use orange is manny of my designs and I mix them too. I mix yellow, light pink and the reduser of Angelus spirit dye until I get the tone I want. I think the best way of applying it would be an airgun maybe?

Members Rayban Posted May 3, 2009 Members Report Posted May 3, 2009 (edited) I recently got some Angelus tan and I was shocked at how "orange" it was....I quickly mixed it with lt. brown to get a "tan" I could live with.... Another thing I would try.....start with Whicket/Craig russett and leave it nat'l...in time it turns into nice Osage lookin...... Edited May 3, 2009 by Rayban Quote Raybanwww.rgleather.net
