I’m so happy to be back and I thought that an easy, no-sew, upcycle was the perfect DIY to get us back in the swing of things.
In this video, I share the technique for buffing and applying the paint into the jacket in a way that will last and last but you don’t have to do it to a leather jacket.
You can do this to shoes, purses, shorts even pants!
And you don’t need to do this to real leather, however, make sure you aren’t trying to apply this to patent or vinyl -The paint will just flake off.

I recommend doing one this coat first, and doing a test patch before you decide on a second coat.
I think that 2 coats looked perfect but each item is different and you may only need one.
TIP – When you’re deciding on what color to pick, I recommend looking in your closet and seeing the statement colors that yo actually wear quite often. While this is a statement jacket, you want a color that will work well with the rest of your closet so that you get the most out of it!
