- Creating faux leather out of a paper grocery bag! It's so easy to do and it looks so real! This project uses minimal supplies that you probably already have in your stash!
I hope you enjoy this tutorial and give it a try!
I'll be using one of the pieces I made in an upcoming album!

I have watched a *lot* of "How to make faux leather from a paper bag" tutorials and have tried quite a few of those along the way. Yours is the first one that I have been completely happy with the result when I finished. :-) Thank you!
Glad it was helpful! I also tried many different ways that didn't quite cut it, until I discovered this method in my experimentations. This method really does look like worn leather! I'm so happy you enjoyed it!
Thanks so much for continually inspiring me! Hugs from Berlin from my beloved cats Hurricane Eddie, Tornado Dana (his sister) I take care of them until they find a final home, (they came from a death station in Greece and now recover with so much energy and curiosity exploring the world) and my own always chilling Sammy , Nino the red wolferine and me always following the lady from BC! Miao! Thanks a lot for sharing so much with the rest of the world.
AMAZING!
Thank you! I've used this faux leather technique in so many projects!

Wow, that mini album you made, does look like a really old book. Thanks for sharing. I'm kinda drawn to the vintage brown color, but the other one is awesome too. God bless you. Becky B
Love love this. Navy blue is my favorite
Me too! That's the one I used for the cover of the newest album!
Coming soon!
ThNk you for your awesomeness
Absolutely fabulous! Some of my upcoming journal makes are going to love having covers made of this style faux leather. Thanks so much for sharing.
It will look great on a journal!
This is a great technique. I've used it many times. Love how yours turned out. Merry Christmas. =^^=
Wow! this is gorgeous!! I'll have to give it a try after the first of the year, thanks so much for sharing your talents with us.
It's so much fun to do and looks fantastic!
As a vegan, I find this material FANTASTIC! My gears are grinding now! Could you use this as a "leather" material to cut out sewing patterns and sew them together? I can see this as a super cool trench coat if I could fuse a bunch of them together to make HUGE yards of material if that's possible. Can you use a bunch of them to makes several yards of this faux leather? Awesome job. I LOVE this so hard!
It's fairly strong once dry, but I'm not sure if it would be durable enough to be used as clothing. It is still paper after all. However, who am I to say? I haven't tried it so I can't say for sure. Perhaps if it were backed with a cotton fabric or something like that?
Great idea Katia, thanks for sharing your experiments and ideas, always helpful to see what to do or not to do. I sure hope I haven't offended you in any way, I just want to share information that I've learned. I use to do all the same things everyone else in the world is doing right now, until I learned the truth about it. Take care and God bless you and yours. Sincerely Becky B from Arkansas
No Becky, not at all!
No worries!!
All good.
I've just been so crazy busy the past couple weeks that I've gotten behind on my correspondence!
I wonder if acrylic paint & mod podge would work?
I think it definitely would!!
Half of what you’re doing & using is totally unnecessary making the faux leather more difficult & lengthy.. I suggest you take a look at Treasure Books & There’s another paper crafter that does it her way too..
While they are much more difficult to listen at bc of babbling..👎🤷♀️
