- Here is a DIY 3 ingredient all-natural recipe to effectively restore, clean and condition leather and wood (and canvas). This recipe has lasted over a century, being handed down from generation to generation on my fathers side.
Preparation time: 3 minutes
Cooking time: 5 - 7 minutes
Batch quantity: approx. 750mL
Ingredients:
1 cup raw linseed oil
1 cup white vinegar
1 tbsp pure beeswax
// Optional ingredient: 1 tbsp of lavender oil or any other essential oil //
Method:
A. Pour linseed oil into a small saucepan and bring to the boil.
B. Then pour the vinegar into the mixture and continue to stir
C. Now add the beeswax and allow to dissolve completely into the mixture.
D. Turn the heat off and allow to slightly simmer. Once the formula is cooler add in your essential oil. Let the mixture cool before pouring into a jar. Mix the leather cleaner as it cools to avoid the oils separating.
TIP: If you want a thicker consistency add 50 grams of beeswax, this is more suitable for a wooden furniture polish.

Hi @CHIC Restoration & Interiors . Great video! I have 2 queations: 1.Why did you add white vinegar & what is the benefit or use for the leather? 2. Doesn't heating burn the oil until it boils and cause to lose oil's useful fat, minerals and etc for the leather? Instead you could heat the pan in a boling water....
I love how everything you used is all natural!
Yes, I think keeping it simple is key!
If I ever need to clean some leather, I'll definitely give this recipe a crack! Ps. It may be useful to write dot points of your process (or at least the ingredients + quantities) in the video description for people with hearing impairment. :) Love your work, Brea!
Yes, totally agree Rachel - will add the subtitles options soon!
Sorry to be so off topic but does anybody know a trick to get back into an Instagram account..?
I stupidly forgot my account password. I would love any tricks you can offer me!
@Jacoby Jeremias i really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and Im trying it out atm.
I see it takes quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
@Jacoby Jeremias it did the trick and I actually got access to my account again. Im so happy!

@Braxton Shawn You are welcome xD
This video was great and so helpful
Thanks Sheri, I love your videos as well. Can't wait for the next one!
Exactly what was looking for!! Thank you so much for sharing!!
Please do NOT add vinegar to boiling linseed oil! It exploded and could have caused major injury to me and my son if we didn't run away fast enough
Exactely, better add the vinegar to the cold mix of melted oil and beeswax
Great vid! Fantastic tip, will definitely be giving it a go!
Let me know how it works for you!
Thanks so much for sharing your recipe. Can we use any other oil in the solution instead of linseed? Thanx
This was awesome your going to kill it on UA-cam x
Thanks :)
Thank u
Ok got it cleaner and conditioner
Very nice
Is this okay to clean and condition the leather?
So the vinegar is added or not .?
Looks like way more than 1 tablespoon beeswax and when you added the vinegar it didn't look like a whole cup??
