: . . . I'm hoping to find something locally
: and not too exotic.

Ah heck, go for exotic. It's just a trim accent. Why not an edge of gold glitter?

I was at a Woodworking Show last weekend and saw a booth for the 3D Woodworking Store of Creston, Iowa, USA that sells materials for inlays. They have a technique where the pattern is cut with a router and then the groove is filled with a colored epoxy. it appears they have their colors premixed into the resin. Measure out a few drops of their colored epoxy, add a few drops of hardener, and paint it on.

This URL gets you to the tints and inlays page:

Telephone is (641) 745-0477, Owner is Elaine Cottrell, email is info@3DWoodworkingStore.com

Good luck with your project.
