Ok so I'll admit I plain did'nt check and just assumed I knew what coral was, but I don't apparently.
So now basically I have a dozen peach colored roses, that need to be coral roses.
Can I dust them a darker color?
I've already painted them with luster dust and vodka, I wanted them to sparkle and shine but will the luster dust work now?
No problem to dust them again but it might take a little more work since the surface is already painted/dusted once. And in my opinion peach is not THAT far from coral
I see coral as a little darker than peach, more orangy. Could you dust with an orange luster dust?
It won't hurt to try to luster dust them, coral is close to peach anyway. But since you painted them, I find you might just have to paint again. Some dusts are too transparent to cover a 'paint' job and don't adhere well to an already painted surface. Also, if you use clear alcohol, it will remove some of the color. Just be real careful as you can dissolve your flower.
Coral is a darl orangey peach with a hint of red. I'm looking at my coral necklace right now. 
But I would try dusting them darker as well.
Ok so I asked the customer what color exactly, she said "coral like the invites", well the invites are what I matched the roses to in the first place and I think it's more a peachy pink.
When I google "coral color" it comes up a dark orange pinkish peach color, when I google "coral roses" it brings up a dark orange pinkish peach color and a light peach color.
And when I google "coral gerbera daisy" it brings up the same light peach color as I made my flowers (made some gerbers too).
So with that said I think I am going to leave flowers as is to match the invites, the customer called it "coral" but it's really a peach, after all that's what she wanted, flowers to match the invite.
I guess it does'nt matter what color it's called as long as it matches what the customer wants it to match?
Long story short I had the right color in the first place just the wrong name for it..lol
Thank you for all ya'lls help!
