    Default Kool Aid Colors

    Anyone know how to get a good olive color with Kool Aid?

    Burnt Orange?

    Would Rit do it better?

    If you need a book, Gary Borger's book "Natrurals" has a very good dying chapter.

    I looked on the Microsoft colors in MS Word, olive a mix of green and brown, so I would try lime and root beer; burnt orange looks like a red, yellow, brown combination. Go to where you pick font colors and you can work out the combinations.
