I wish you make vedio on some shades of blue without cabbage.. And for the reason why the same avocados gave a darker shade is may be that once you reboil them, they give a darker shade. I say so because I did extracting yellow from turmeric and I re boiled the turmeric hoping that I will get a lighter shade of yellow, it ended up giving me brown. But I do not scientific reason.. But really enjoy this process which makes me eager for different results eachtime.

you will always get a darker colour from your avocado pips second time around, dry them out after your first pot for about a week so they can oxidise, the colour is always deeper. x

Here we are : I just tie dyed an old tee with avocado seeds and skins. It turned out SO BEAUTIFUL. Like you I used dried avocados. I let them boil for an hour, turned the heat off for a few hours, then boiled it again. Indeed this double boiling process was needed to achieve a gorgeous pink shade. I'm so happy with the result, thank you for the inspiration 🌻

I think the reason you got the more pink color is because of the aluminum pot. Aluminum is an added mordant. I am about to dye with avocados but have read several books on the subject. the pot you use for dyeing can affect the color. Great video!

you possibly got a different color because the second time the pits were heated in an aluminum pot, aluminum being a mordant.

Avocados plantations also can cause huge water shortages for the ppl near them, and obviously the environment, they might be healthy but for some ppl they are detrimental. So eat avocados with care. Using the pits for dying is a good way to not waste so much the fruit has grown.

Hello 😊 thanks for your comment and you are totally right. It’s really important to do your own research and work out what sits right with you/one personally. I rarely eat avocados these days although I used to eat them by the bucket load until I started becoming a little more conscious. I like to find ways of acquiring them in places they might be being thrown away, like the market or restaurants and use the stones as many times as they will give me colour 💗

DOn't know that you'll see this BillyNou after 5 years but, I took a class where we dyed with natural materials and different modrdans to make a fantastic array of colours, most of these recipes I still have fom long ago.I can tell you that your big mystery as to why you got such different colour from the avocado heted in the aliminium (as you call it) pot is because again, different mordant (aluminum being one mordant) produce different colors out of the same dye materials. QUite simply that's the reason. Thanks for spreading the word about this ancient craft.

@billynou
@billynou 4 жыл бұрын
Hi Lydia. Thank you so much. To prep your fabric it’s a good idea to thoroughly clean or “scour” it and then mordant it before dyeing. Or you can try soy milk as a binder which helps the colours stick to the fiber. ... we’ve got a video on soy milk and planning to do some more mordanting techniques soon 🌱

Hey there, just watched your video about using avocado pits. When I tried dyeing with avocado pits they were not dry. Do I learned something new. However, I did boil my avocado pits for several hours and got a really beautiful dusty rose color. So I think that the heating gets more of the color out of whatever it is you are using. I’ve done this with bark and it worked as well. Love your channel. It’s a pleasure to watch. I am interested in the wooden spoons. With the slanted angle. The ones your boyfriend makes. Will they be or are they already on your website? I’ll check. Thank you.

@billynou
@billynou 3 жыл бұрын
Hello ... so soda ash is generally used to clean/scour the fibers before dyeing them not as a mordant. The colourfastness can really vary a lot depending on what fibers you use and how you pretreat them... they will never be like synthetic dyes. I’d suggest doing some experiments, clean your fibers thoroughly and if you want to try something cool...soya milk can help bind the colours to the fiber 😁

Avocado stones give quite a lot of colour and I usually find that there is plenty left over for another round of dyeing. Hope that helps and sorry I can’t be exact with weights etc.🌸💜

Oh yeah it would’ve been better if I waited a week. But I was so impatient, I washed it right away. I’ll wait next time. I also wondered if I should’ve put a mordant in there. But actually I’m very pleased with the color, so I guess it’s not really necessary. Thank you again for this lovely,helpful video! Beautiful!

Lydia Saunders haha it is seriously difficult to wait sometimes! You could try giving the fabric a soak in soya milk before hand ... that’s usually better if you let it cure a while too 😅

Can you store and reuse the left over dye?
@billynou
@billynou 3 жыл бұрын
Yes you can store it in the fridge or somewhere cool but just keep and eye on it in case it starts to go mouldy but also remember once a dye has been used you might want to top it up with more dye stuff before using it again if you still want the same shade 🌸

Which fabrics can you use for this method?
@billynou
@billynou 4 жыл бұрын
Wolfmaedchen hi! Sorry I didn’t see your comment. You can use any natural fibres for this method. Animal fibres such as silk and wool tend to take the colour more easily than plant fibres like cotton and linen but the results can still be really satisfying 💓

The color is different because of the aluminum of the pan! It changes de color!

The different colours? - Looks like the smaller pot was aluminium while the other looked like stainless steel. I think that could contribute to this.
