Members Carbon2077 Posted January 19, 2013 Members Report Posted January 19, 2013 VERY new to leatherwork (though I've had a few lessons), but I've already got a request from a friend of mine for a piece. Thing is, she wants it in mint green (specifically, the color of mint chocolate chip ice cream)- a color I haven't seen as a dye, but an image search shows is possible for leather. I'm thinking I'll have to mix Aqua and Kelly Green dyes. Any tips on achieving this shade? Quote

Contributing Member SooperJake Posted January 19, 2013 Contributing Member Report Posted January 19, 2013 (edited) I'd say the willow green or Nile green are pretty close to mint. You could get the willow and a white and adjust from there I'd wager. See the link, below. http://www.shoetreem...lors_p/1007.htm Edited January 19, 2013 by SooperJake Quote
