Valerie,

I can't tell if you got an answer to this question or not. I've been out of
town for quite a while and my newsgroup posts seem to be all screwed up.

Anyway, here's what I have on the Color page of my website about it:

(The black dye paste sold by the Fimo people does work well, but it is
mes-s-s-y! You should probably wear rubber gloves and mask your work area well.
Your food processor will need a *thorough* cleaning afterward and don't use any
tools you can't clean well. After it's mixed it, it doesn't seem to come off on
anything though.)
Munro's still carries it? http://www.concentric.net/~munrocrp/
Accent Imports (http://www. fimozone.com) We do carry the black dye
for...polymer clay. We sell it in a 8-oz jar for $9.99 and you can find it on
our website in the shopping section under tools and things. We also carry a 1
gallon container of the black dye if you wanted to purchase it in bulk and
distribute it yourself within the guild or class or what have you. The 1-gal
container runs $44.95. Please feel free to contact us via 1-800-989-2889 with
any other questions you may have. Sean Donovan
However, when I went back to their site to find what he was talking about I
couldn't locate it on any page. So my recommendation is to make an e-mail to
him from their site or contact him by phone. Tamila

I do know that Sue Screws of the Metro Detroit Polymer Art Guild used (black?)
"Tempra Powdered Paint" to mix in with her clay too and it worked pretty good
(I was told about it, didn't actually "see it" so I don't know the process)
