Be aware that the alcohol dyes aren't as light-fast as the water
soluble dyes. It's a good idea to use a finish that has UV protection
so you won't have fading even if it is indoors.

IIRC, earth pigments are light fast, and can be mixed to match
any wood tone. Dayglo colors fade the quickest, but I doubt
anyone here is psychotic enough to stain furniture with them.

Magic marker can be washed off with alcohol, so the
inks are alcohol-soluble. You should be able to tint shellac
by pulling out a wick and dropping it into a can for a day
or so. Pantone offered nearly every color in the universe;
does anyone know if they're still in business?
