Carrie added 6 more Sculpey III recipes on August 2, 2009 -- in case you missed them. They are at this post, called Sculpey III Clay Color Recipes: Lavender, Cherry, Peach. I hope Carrie comes back with more recipes, as they are so beautiful! There are now 5 sets of guest recipes on the website, as shown in the aptly named "Guest Recipes Inex" shown after the article on this post: Kato Polyclay Color Recipes | Blue Hosta Palette The first two are the Sculpey III recipes, by Carrie. The other 3 are Kato conversions of Cindy's color palettes, by Sue Fisher. Watch for the Index to be updated, since Sue sounds like she plans to continue (converting Cindy's palettes--so you can easily make them with Kato!) If you're a Kato user, make sure you check out the recipes. Don't forget to give Sue a "Thank you!" We want her to keep doing this "cool thing."

@Sue – I duplicated your Fimo links – sorry – that will teach me to scim read! The Kato charts are interesting – I have only used it at the Polyclay Play days here in the UK, and thought the range was limited, but that chart certainly shows what you can do.

@Jocelyn – thankyou! I shall always try to use a size reference item in future – a very good tip!

@Pat – further to Cindy's ideas for softening old clay, I chop it and add my few drops of softener then pop in a ziplock bag and squadge it (a technical term!) then leave it for – weeks, maybe – and when I go back to it it has usually softened up evenly.
