Whats the best Salmon Pink Color
Whats the best Salmon Pink Color?
I use 104 mostly.
I made some out of bullseye but it really looks more pink than I'm looking for.
I tried mixing my own, but must be stupid.
Can anyone give me a hint on whats a great color.
Thanks so much

If you don't mind 96, this Dark Pink Coral is beautiful:

If that is too pink, maybe Reichenbach Flamingo, which comes in both 96 and 104.

I haven't tried it, but have read that Devardi has beautiful salmon/peachy colors.

Drew Fritts book has some great glass color recipes. It's worth the investment. If you buy it new from the author he'll sign it too.

Bruised arm? Like black and blue? Picture?
I get a peachy pink. I'll look for an example or make one tomorrow.

Here's an extreme version of the color I am getting. I did sort of overheat the bead and then I marvered. I just got this color so I haven't done too much with it but I was surprised when I pulled stringer and it turned this purple bruise color. I had hoped to use it for kitty noses.

Thanks Lori
I just ordered a 1/4 pound.
I mixed up a couple colors today mixed mango, white and some I mixed up. It turned almost black.
When I used bullseye salmon it turned almost the same color as yours.

If you don't mind using Devardi, they do have a few shades of salmon that stay salmon-y.

Maybe you accidentally discovered the decent purple that's been eluding us in 104 for so many years. If you can repeat it, you may be on to something.
I haven't made kitty faces for a while, but when I did, I think I used either tongue pink or powder pink. Depends on the color of the cat, though -- one of my (real) cats has a nose that's basically terra-cotta colored, while another's nose is pastel pink.

I've never used Devardi. Who sells it?

Lori - You aren't doing anything wrong. If that is Flamingo, it is a cool odd lot and I'd buy more if you remember where you got it.
Here's what I get from Flamingo 104. It's almost more of a pink caramel than a true salmon pink.

I've mixed orange , white and pink and came out with a nice salmon. I tried the bullseye and it came out close to Lori's color. I don't know what happened there.
