Paint
Paint, unlike what would seem, is not a crafting item. Paint be thrown, and will color the area around it when it lands.
Crafting:

Paintbrush
The Paint brush can be used to paint blocks. The paint which it places down WILL NOT spread.
Crafting:

Painting boots
Wear these and wherever you walk, the color they're dyed will spread. This also means while wearing them, the color of which they have will be applied to the player
Crafting:

Color Picker
The color picker is used to pick a color, and then can be crafted with items to color them the right color. To open up the GUI, right click the color picker. You then can click and move the point in the color wheel, and the saturation slider at the bottem. The color result will be rendered onto the item on the left. To exit the GUI, press escape.
The Color Picker also can be used to color these items:
- Paintbrush
- Painting Boots
- Throwable paint
- Leather Armour To color those items, simply put one of the items, and the color picker (with the picked color) into a crafting table There is currently a bug where the crafting recipe does not check how many items are in the crafting table, meaning you can put 2 color pickers in the table, or 2 of the item you want to color
Example:

Crafting:

Paint Scrubber
