You can tie a knot in the leather if you like long necklaces; or you can add a clasp by adding a leather cord end with glue or use a fold over connector with a ring. Then attach jump rings and the clasp.

Thanks for watching. Because it was safer to saw this large, heavy piece on the concrete, and because there was nowhere to place a clamp securely, he opted to cut it as shown in the video.

Thank you! Any brand of chalky finish paint would probably work for this technique. If painting on metal or glass, look for a bonding primer made for this application; then apply the primer prior to painting. Acrylic craft paint may also work, but you would definitely need the bonding primer if using acrylic paint.

@@creatingatclassiccottage thanx for reply dear☺️, kindly tell me, can i use gesso for base and regular acrylic paints

I haven’t tried painting metal with acrylic paints. I think it would work.If you use gesso for the base, I recommend lightly sanding the piece with 220 grit sandpaper then thoroughly cleaning and rinsing prior to painting. Also, if you use gesso I would recommend 2 coats.

@@creatingatclassiccottage thanx a lot for replying me again☺️, I'll try

I'm so glad you found my video helpful!! Have a great day!

I seal my paint and decoupage with Dixie Belle Paint Company’s Satin Clear Coat.

Hi! I'm not sure about the age of this table, my guess would be 1930s to 1960s. This table was not in great shape when I got it. The top had deep scratches on one side and it was really wobbly, so cutting it up and repurposing was an easy decision. My personal rule of thumb for repurposing furniture is if it is a family heirloom or if it has been appraised at a really high price by a professional, then I don't paint/repurpose. I do paint/repurpose if it's going to sit in my basement or in a corner unused as it is. I would rather enjoy a piece than have it sit. Hope this helps!

It can be sealed with Dixie Belle Spray Wax, but I find I don’t usually need a sealer. Your could also use ScotchGard.

You’re welcome!!

Thanks for the idea

In my experience, I have only had Gator Hide yellow on light colored paint when the tannins (oils) from the wood comes to the surface or when the piece wasn’t cleaned well. To prevent the tannins from bleeding through, use a stain blocking primer (I like Dixie Belle BOSS) after cleaning thoroughly (I use Dixie Belle White Lightning cleaner). Tip - always rinse with clear water after cleaning. If your Gator Hide has yellowed, scuff sand, apply a stain blocking primer, then repaint and seal again with Gator Hide.

@@creatingatclassiccottageThank you. I did clean very well I also did 3coats of dixie bell paint let dry overnight before applying the gatorhide. This was to be a Christmas gift but I'm not sure I can get it finished in time starting over. The only thing I didn't do was prime so I'll try that. Thanks again

You’re welcome. The primer should make a difference. If you use Dixie Belle BOSS to prime, be sure to follow the dry time instructions on the jar as it needs to dry overnight for best results. Also, keep in mind that full cure time is 30 days after applying the last product. Gentle use is fine before the 30 days, but heavy use is best after it’s fully cured. I hope this helps. Have a wonderful Christmas!

Oh, and more more thought. When applying Gator Hide, thin, even coats are much better than thick coats.
