"My name is Julie Barbee, my clothing line is Frocky JackMorgan, on behalf of Expert Village, this is a tutorial on recycling and de constructing old clothes. Another principle of deconstruction is dying fabric and there are a lot of different products in the market, you can just kinda explore on the internet or even just in your grocery store there are different kind of fabric dyes and I mix a lot of them to acquire new colors and you can either in a bin or you can dye in your washing machine, which I don't really recommend cause it can get a little bit messy but it?s a great way to cover stains, a great way to acquire a new color, if you're not happy with the garment, the color let it is. So this is a good example of something that might have started out pink and I dyed it and even though lace can dye a different color on the fabric, it?s a good thing to just study the color well, just to learn how different colors are gonna interact with one another, to learn if a red is gonna turn brown if you add pink green to it, things like that. It just helps to know color well, and learning how to mix it and dye clothes."
