Why Highlands Green Is a Useful Pigment Colour

Highlands Green is a useful mica powder colour when you want a green pigment that feels deeper, more natural, and more grounded than bright lime, mint, or standard green. It works well in rustic woodworking projects, forest-inspired resin art, natural epoxy inlays, darker river tables, botanical colour palettes, and pieces where you want the green shimmer to complement wood grain without feeling too bright.

This colour pairs well with walnut, white oak, ash, olive wood, clear epoxy, black pearl, gold green, olive green, bronze, copper, brown, white pearl, and darker metallic pigments. It can also be blended with other colours to create forest greens, mossy greens, green-black effects, earthy botanical tones, and rustic metallic looks. Testing a small sample first is recommended so you can see how Highlands Green looks in your exact epoxy, wax, soap base, coating, or craft material.

Why Beaver Dust Pigments Are Different

Beaver Dust Pigments are made with fine particles under 60 microns. This smaller particle size helps the pigment mix smoothly into epoxy and stay suspended while the resin cures, instead of settling to the bottom like some larger or heavier pigment particles can.

Highlands Green Beaver Dust Pigment is especially useful when you want a deeper natural colour that still adds shimmer and movement to cured resin. Use a small amount for a more transparent forest-green shimmer or add more pigment for a stronger, deeper highlands green effect.

Suggested Projects

• Deep green epoxy pours: Use Highlands Green on its own for rich resin art, coasters, trays, and decorative accents.
• Forest-style river tables: Pair Highlands Green with walnut, white oak, ash, olive wood, or live edge slabs for a natural green epoxy river with depth.
• Coasters and sample pours: Use small silicone molds to test Highlands Green, compare pigment amounts, and make finished coaster-style projects.
• Rustic woodworking accents: Add Highlands Green to cracks, voids, carved details, logos, and epoxy-filled inlays for a natural green shimmer.
• Botanical and landscape projects: Use Highlands Green for forest, moss, woodland, garden, camping, and nature-inspired resin pieces.
• Custom pigment blends: Mix Highlands Green with olive green, gold green, black pearl, bronze, copper, brown, white pearl, or clear epoxy to create custom moss, forest, earthy metallic, and deep botanical effects.

How Much Pigment Should You Use?

A good starting point for Highlands Green mica powder is approximately 1/8 teaspoon per 1 litre of epoxy for a medium level of transparency. You can adjust from there depending on the colour strength, opacity, shimmer, and final effect you want.

For smaller batches, start with a small amount, mix thoroughly, and add more gradually. Deeper green pigments can look different depending on lighting, background colour, epoxy depth, wood tone, and the amount used, so testing a sample is recommended before committing to a larger project.
