I make my faux leather the way you do with the second technique, but before each wrinkle, I use glycerine on the paper, then crunch it up, open and add more glycerine, then wrinkle up again….two or three times. It requires a little bit of drying time, but it actually feels like real fabric/leather. I love your embossed leather; they look very rich like an old book cover. Thanks for sharing!

Thank you! That’s a great technique as well! 👍 I made a video awhile back using a very similar technique on brown grocery bags, except I use a hair conditioner instead of glycerin 😊

@@magpie92766 yes. It takes a while to do this process, but man is it worth it! I usually do about 5 or 6 pieces at once so I will have it on hand. I usually use Kraft card stock instead of a bag as it’s a little bit thicker. It really feels like leather, looks like leather,,,,,must be leather!

As a miniaturist, we often simulate leather with crushed, brown paper as its really effective on tiny things like book covers and all sorts of leather items.

I love these ideas!❤ I’m going to make a “wallet journal” to take on a vacation trip and document in that and add pics of the trip in there. Then I just have to add it to my big journal when I get home. Could you tell me which foil you used? Was it the kind you use with heat normally? Or the kind that doesn’t require the heat? And, what a great idea for either one really…just didn’t know you could use any foil with glue like that.

Love this technique and can’t wait until tonight when I have some free time to give it a try! Personally I love both projects and plan to make them both. The folio is perfect for ‘happy mail’ (great term btw) and I have several friends who could use a pick me up. I’m also an embroiderer and am thinking of including some hand embroidery in the journal. Probably going to back the fabric with painted rice paper so the page doesn’t get too thick and still has some flexibility. Your video was excellent; you present the information at a clearly and concisely with out a lot of side chatter and at a good pace. Thank you for all the work I know it takes to make these videos to share with us!
