I’ve been reading about the new red celery with fascination – (not really red to me, more like the “red” of red onions) …somewhat surprised to have landed on a site that explains “value added produce” (while following the link trail) which is something apparently that I buy often .
I am dreaming of rhubarb as I embark on making a new series of folded petal necklaces.

I drew color inspiration from food stylist Linda Lundgren’s food arranged by color series.
To mix my variation of this color I used one part Premo Cadmium red and one part Premo Fluorescent Pink. The resulting red is vibrant and makes for an edible looking cane which I look forward to fashioning into part of my new series of necklaces.
Next time you set out to mix a vibrant color in polymer clay consider using either a fluorescent yellow or pink to pump-up your mixes.
