Pigment and glitter

By Dwight Davis, Founder

Updated

On this page11
A pigment collection is dozens of containers, not a few, which changes what matters.

Alcohol inks and resin dyes

Thin, strongly colored, solvent-borne in the case of alcohol ink, and dispensed by the drop. 43 dropper assemblies and 6 dropper tips and caps on this shelf.

Which brings the resin chart in

An alcohol ink in PET is the wrong pairing, and PET is 390 of the 698 containers here. For solvent-borne colorants the 130 glass containers are the shelf.

Mica powders and pigment pastes

Dry or thick, taken out with a spatula rather than poured. A small wide mouth jar, and the 110 PET single wall jars plus 26 PP single wall jars are where those live.

Glitter is an organization problem

A hundred colors in tiny quantities. The container question is not what holds it, it is what holds a hundred of them in a findable, non-spilling, stackable way.

Which is the gap on this shelf

Glitter is sold in small vials with plug stoppers and in compartment boxes. There are 2 tubes here and no compartment box, so the honest answer is a tray of small jars.

Static is the glitter problem nobody warns about

Fine flake clings to a plastic wall and to everything else. A smooth glass or a wider mouth helps; nothing eliminates it.

Clear containers earn their place here

186 of them. For a colorant collection, seeing the color through the wall is most of the usability, and a label never keeps up with a mixed shade.

Against the archetype's light sensitivity

119 amber containers, for pigments that fade. That is a real conflict: see the color or protect it, and for a pigment used up within a year clear usually wins.

The size the craft wants

15 and 30 mL. 100 containers on this shelf are 30 mL or under against an archetype window that starts at 100, which is the pipeline undershooting the craft.

And a tight closure matters more than it looks

An alcohol ink evaporates through a poor liner and a mica powder takes up moisture and cakes. 11 liners and sealing discs is the line item that solves both.

The Davis Pack Supply catalog, measured 18 October 2026. The resin jewelry shelf is 1,217 rows: 698 containers and 519 closures. 5 mL to 9,464 mL with a median of 118; 100 containers at 30 mL or under, 390 at 120 or under, 662 at a pint or under. 390 PET, 130 glass, 99 HDPE, 78 PP. 459 bottles, 224 jars, 12 tubs and pails, 2 tubes, 1 jug. 186 clear, 151 white, 119 amber. Closures: 363 continuous thread, 43 dropper assemblies, 27 dome lids, 19 lug and twist, 16 flip top, 14 phenolic, 11 liners and sealing discs, 8 specialty, 6 dropper tips and caps, 6 round tubs.
The archetype behind this shelf is ind-chemical: 100 to 20,000 mL, narrow mouth, HDPE and glass, light sensitive, child resistant, poured, with "chemical resistance is the entire decision, check the resin chart first" as its stated reason. All four leaves sit on it, including the two that store dry items picked out with tweezers.
Written from 15 U.S.C. 2052(a)(2), 15 U.S.C. 2063(a)(5) and 15 U.S.C. 1278a, and from the catalog as it stood on 18 October 2026. Whether a particular piece is a children's product, and whether a particular encapsulation is an inaccessible component part, are determinations this property raises and does not make. State jewelry laws and voluntary standards for children's jewelry sit on top of everything here.
