At least you were able to get away with only using one type ~ in the past, I remember having to blend a few to get the right shade ~ some of which I only needed a bit of and it felt so wasteful not to be drinking it too ;)

I know it's not the look you're going for with this design, but I actually like the variegated look ~ that's how my Havisham dress is ~ an ode to all the various time-worn shades in the ivory realm!
