Hey there Sweet Friends, today on the blog I’m going to share with you a few of my newest color recipes.  DIY Paint is hands down the best Artisan Clay and Chalk finish furniture paint in the industry.  If the color you are looking for is not on the sheet below,  just try mixing the colors together.

DIY Paint Color Recipes!

DIY Paint – Clay Based Paint!

One of the things I love most about DIY Paint is the Blending and Mixing abilities.  Debi, from “Debi’s Design Diary” created this fun and easy worksheet for creating new paint colors.  If you subscribe to her membership group on You Tube, here, then you can also take advantage of all of her knowledge and free printable(s).

Clay Paint / DIY Paint Color Recipes!

Here are a few more recipes that I came up with. This color recipe below was used on my

newest Gossip Bench.  You can read about that here.

I used a color recipe of Petticoat Pink, Cowgirl Corral and Golden Ticket for my Angel Artwork.   You can read about that here and watch the video on You Tube here.

My final color mixing recipe was Skeleton Key and White Swan which came up with a beautiful light colored blue.  The You Tube video project is coming soon.  Subscribe to my You Tube channel here so that you’ll be notified when I post the video.

I’d encourage you to purchase 3-5 sample size colors of the DIY Paint and play around with the colors.  The Paint can be purchased on my website www.CreateWithCynthiaShop.com or by visiting my space in Redwood City, 615Woodside Road, Suite 3, Redwood City, California.

Now go out there and Create Something!
