Welcome to Make Thrift Buy, a show where Dialogue: 0,0:00:05.30,0:00:08.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,you guys send clothes from the internet and\NI try to recreate them. Dialogue: 0,0:00:08.48,0:00:12.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Today’s challenge was sent in by Jenny Pepper,\Nwho suggested these melting tights from URB Dialogue: 0,0:00:12.94,0:00:18.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Clothing, which are handmade, latex, and retail\Nfrom $55 to $80. Now these tights are by an Dialogue: 0,0:00:18.74,0:00:22.15,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,awesome handmade designer, and if you can\Nafford to you should totally go and support Dialogue: 0,0:00:22.15,0:00:25.99,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,them, but if you’re anything like me and there’s\Nno way you can spend $55 dollars on a pair Dialogue: 0,0:00:25.99,0:00:29.78,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of tights, well…Maybe we can make these\Nfor ourselves. So let’s give it a go! Dialogue: 0,0:00:29.78,0:00:34.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So I started out with a pair of sheer tights\Nthat match my skin colour, and this three-dimensional Dialogue: 0,0:00:34.03,0:00:35.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,fabric paint that I found on Ebay.

I also got\Nmyself a large piece of cardboard which I Dialogue: 0,0:00:43.73,0:00:47.67,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,rolled up into the approximate width of my\Nleg, and I stretched one leg of the stockings Dialogue: 0,0:00:47.67,0:00:53.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on over the cardboard, and I started painting.\NI basically just did these long drips down Dialogue: 0,0:00:53.08,0:01:00.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the length of the tights in what I thought\Nwhat looked like a melting style. Dialogue: 0,0:01:01.39,0:01:05.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,And then using a paint brush I try to blend\Nthe paint at the top of the tights because, Dialogue: 0,0:01:05.06,0:01:09.28,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,well that’s what the ones URB Clothing looked\Nlike and I’m trying to re-create them. With Dialogue: 0,0:01:09.28,0:01:14.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,one leg done I set this outside in the sunshine\Nto dry for a few hours.

It’s totally stuck.\NSo the cardboard and the tights have dried Dialogue: 0,0:01:26.40,0:01:33.26,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,together and now they won’t come apart!\NAbout an hour later I finally manage to release Dialogue: 0,0:01:33.26,0:01:39.03,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the tights from the cardboard, but unfortunately\Na lot of the cardboard came with it, and I Dialogue: 0,0:01:39.03,0:01:43.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,almost gave up at this point when I discovered\Nthat scrubbing off cardboard with a wet cloth Dialogue: 0,0:01:43.39,0:01:47.54,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,seemed to do the trick. So I saved them and\NI was back on track! Dialogue: 0,0:01:47.54,0:01:52.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,For the second leg, I was smarter, and this\Ntime I put two coat hangers together like Dialogue: 0,0:01:52.11,0:01:56.05,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this. This insured that the tights would be\Nstretched, and that also that the opposite Dialogue: 0,0:01:56.05,0:02:00.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,sides wouldn’t stick to each other. For\Nthis leg I took it outside, clipped it onto Dialogue: 0,0:02:00.30,0:02:03.56,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,my washing line so I wouldn’t get paint\Neverywhere, and then I did the same technique Dialogue: 0,0:02:03.56,0:02:06.82,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,dripping paint technique as before. Except\Nthat I didn’t blend the paint at the top Dialogue: 0,0:02:06.82,0:02:10.95,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this time, and again I let the tights dry\Nfor a couple of hours. Dialogue: 0,0:02:10.95,0:02:16.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So this time they easily came off the clothes\Nhanger, but it was at this point I realized...mmm…this Dialogue: 0,0:02:16.74,0:02:22.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,was probably not such a good colour for dripping\Ntights. It looks like blood, anddd I don’t Dialogue: 0,0:02:22.30,0:02:26.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,think that having blood dripping down your\Nlegs when you’re a girl is never really Dialogue: 0,0:02:26.17,0:02:30.55,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,going to be a look that’s in vogue. Also\Nanother massive fail was where I tried to Dialogue: 0,0:02:30.55,0:02:34.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,blend in the paint at the top of the tights.\NThis stopped the tights from having ANY kind Dialogue: 0,0:02:34.62,0:02:40.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,of stretch to them. So I couldn’t actually\Nget this leg onto my own leg. I’m just going Dialogue: 0,0:02:40.45,0:02:44.12,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to go quietly into the cupboard of my…other…failed\NDIY projects. Dialogue: 0,0:02:44.12,0:02:49.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,SO with my new knowledge of what worked and\Nwhat doesn’t work I tried it out again on Dialogue: 0,0:02:49.43,0:02:53.89,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,a fresh pair of tights using some lilac paint\Nthis time, and the coat hanger method.

Dialogue: 0,0:03:02.72,0:03:06.74,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,It worked!\NWell, okay kind of. I mean…they don’t Dialogue: 0,0:03:06.75,0:03:10.79,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,look anywhere near as good as the ones from\NURB Clothing, but I mean they’re really Dialogue: 0,0:03:10.79,0:03:15.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,not that bad, and because I stuffed up so\Nmany times the price tag was getting towards Dialogue: 0,0:03:15.83,0:03:20.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the original price of the tights, but if you\Ndidn’t stuff up as much as me, and you bought Dialogue: 0,0:03:20.87,0:03:24.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,three-dimensional fabric paint in single bottles\Nthen you could feasibly make this from the Dialogue: 0,0:03:24.94,0:03:27.22,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,$10 dollars and it would be totally worth\Nit.
