Pantone Fall Colours Caramel Cafe, Midnight & Martini Olive

Listed below are three extra clay recipes I wish to share with you from the Pantone fall 2022 trend shade assortment: Caramel Cafe, Midnight and Martini Olive.

Caramel Cafe is a mushy and heat shade of brown that positively jogs my memory of autumn. I’m additionally seeing lots of animal prints within the shops going into fall. I typically do most of my animal prints with “canes” that I create myself however I occurred to have this silk display screen from Tonja and so thought I’d attempt it out. There are six completely different fashion prints on one silkscreen so I made a decision to experiment with three completely different clay colours and display screen print all on the similar time. I lined up the Caramel Cafe for a Leopard print, a white for the zebra and a gray for the snake.

I then display screen printed all three colours on the similar time in black and that is the outcome. So now I have to determine what I’ll create with it.

Midnight is a darkish blue much like denim. In truth I’ve used this actual blue recipe to create a few of my fake denim items. With a view to do that, all you want is precise denim material to make use of as your texture! I simply create a thick sheet of clean clay, spray the denim material and clay with water as a mildew launch after which run it by the pasta machine collectively on a thinner setting. (Tip: this doesn’t work with Fimo clay as fimo reacts badly to water and can turn out to be actually wierd and gummy so greatest to do that with some other kind of clay).

By the best way, the Midnight blue clay proven above right here seems a bit lighter however that’s as a result of it would darken after it’s baked. In truth most of the Kato clay colours will change barely after baking and so once I first create my recipes I typically enable for this issue and the ultimate shade match check is after it’s baked.

So listed here are some denim snaps and earrings I’ve created utilizing this actual blue shade. After texturing, I create my items and bake. After baking I’ll rub in white acrylic paint (make certain it’s acrylic or suitable with the clay) after which rub off any extra till I get the look that I need. I’ll then bake once more to make the paint adhere to the clay extra.

Martini Olive is a wealthy olive inexperienced and barely darker than the Olive inexperienced in my Clay Coloration System. Additionally it is one in every of my favourite colours I prefer to put on and create with. It combines nicely with so many colours and is extra of a shade of inexperienced for fall moderately than spring or summer season. Listed below are some completed items that I created utilizing the identical olive inexperienced mixed with different colours that may not be particular to this falls Pantone shade palette however are very comparable:
