Why Choose a Cool Purple Blue Variety Pack?
A variety pack is one of the easiest ways to test colours before using them in a larger epoxy pour. Instead of choosing one full-size pigment jar based on a photo, you can make small sample pours, compare colours side by side, and see how each pigment looks in your exact resin, lighting, mold, wood species, and project depth.
This Cool Purple/Blue pack is especially useful for galaxy resin art, deep blue and purple coasters, lavender trays, violet jewelry, navy epoxy inlays, decorative resin pieces, and colour testing for woodworking projects. The focused range of purple, blue, silver, lavender, and mauve tones gives you room to test both soft calming effects and darker dramatic colour combinations.
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.
Because each colour behaves a little differently depending on the base material, lighting, amount used, and pour depth, this variety pack is a practical way to test real results before using a purple, blue, violet, or silver shade in a larger resin or woodworking project.
Suggested Projects
- Galaxy-style sample pours: Test Dark Purple, Navy Blue, Indigo, Silver Pearl, Rainbow Blue, and Blue Mauve C/S for night-sky and cosmic-style resin effects.
- Coasters and small molds: Pair this pack with small silicone molds to make coaster-style projects while testing multiple purple and blue pigments.
- River table colour testing: Compare navy, indigo, violet, purple, silver, and colour-shift tones before committing to a larger epoxy river pour.
- Lavender and floral resin art: Use Lavender, Violet, Plum Purple, Bubble Gum, and Silver Pearl for softer floral, pastel, and gift-style resin projects.
- Deep purple woodworking accents: Test Dark Purple, Plum Purple, Indigo, Navy Blue, and Violet in cracks, voids, carved details, logos, and epoxy-filled inlays.
- Custom pigment blends: Mix colours from the pack to create your own lavender, violet, berry, navy-purple, blue-mauve, galaxy, silver-purple, and jewel-tone effects.
How Much Pigment Should You Use?
A good starting point for Beaver Dust 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 sample pours, start with a small amount of pigment, mix thoroughly, and add more gradually. Purple, blue, silver, and colour-shift pigments can look different depending on lighting, background colour, epoxy depth, mold shape, and wood tone, so small test pours are the best way to compare colours before using them in a larger project.
