I just love the accent. Could listen to you for hours

Hi, I used hair conditioner on my imitation leather and it really turned the brown paper dark which was what I was after, also made it very soft to the touch. Have made book covers out of it as well as tags and book markers. The conditioner made it smell nice too. 😃 happy leather making. 👍🌹

Wow the first time i seen this was from pam from the paper outpost ive made plenty of these they are fun to make ❤

Just found ur video I love the look.. and ur accent could listen to u all day 😂

Looks great

Been doing this for years! Don’t stop at book covers … great for many paper projects. Use to wrap round toliet paper and paper towel cardboard centers to create art/desk storage. Around a oatmeal round box to create storage for tall items. I always use 3 coats of clear coat on finished product. Won’t let me add a photo.

I love doing these faux leather covers! Love your way of doing this E !!

Oh WOW...That is really cool! I have seen others doing the faux leather thing, and have always wanted to try it. I really do like your way. It turned out so nice. Can't wait to see it completely dry and your stitching all around. Thanks for taking us along! Hugs 💟 Suzy

This is so addictive I've made book cover, little books and envelopes and even added an emboss piece thank Ms. E

Very helpful video. Love the cover. Thank you for sharing.

O Miss E-I have watched a number of videos showing how to make faux leather and I agree that your way seems to be the best IMO. Now I know what to do with all my Chewy packing papers LOL. Thank you for sharing all your goodness with us. Hugs and blessings.

Absolutely luv this idea. Thank you E. Smudges and prayers for all from 🇨🇦 🙏☕️

That's a much easier way of making faux leather. Thanks for sharing.🥰

Ty for sharing this, E. Great idea. Xxx

I'm excited to try this. Thank you E for showing how to make it. 🙂❤️

I like your technique Miss E. Also, I received my Mystery box and LOVED all the goodies!

Thank you E for showing how to do this technique 🌻👍🥳

That is amazing! I love it. I didn’t think I would, but I do. Thank you for showing us how to make it.

Hello E, enjoyed watching you make the faux leather, it will make a fabulous journal cover. TFS

Have to give this a try. How fun to create faux leather. Such an easy technique

Thanks so much. Looks so real. 10/10/22 .God bless.

Wow! That's the best way I've seen so far! It turned out fantastic! It looks so relaxing to do as well. Thanks for sharing! ❤️

Need to give this a try. I’ve always used the paper bag and run it through the Sizzix in embossing folders. Then cut it up for collage. Just recently discovered rubbing Distress Oxide on and wetting the paper. Love how it runs and gives an almost marbled, muted effect. As always, thanks for sharing.

loved this techniue. I have tons of the packing paper. Now I know what to do with some of it. Thank you so much for sharing.

Wow that’s the easiest tutorial I’ve seen for faux leather and it looks amazing! ❤

Hi,E, that’s a neat idea & looks cool🥰

So nice looks really good 👍

I love that E I couldn't take my phone away good job

Oh my goodness, I just made faux leather this weekend and was going to send to you as a surprise, I should have known you already knew how to make it and now you are making it! Great minds think alike! Hahaa it will be fun to follow along and maybe create along with you, I usually learn from you then try to make it. I received my order and just love everything. I got Melina's stitch stencil she designed, the cradle, the CD holders, doilies and the added mystery box you had put together. Thank you E, just love Everything in my order! I have loved everything I have ordered from your shop, I have one AJ kit and loved it so much I signed up! Thank you, thank you!!!

I love how this turned out! I will be trying this for my next journal, since it will be for my husband. Thank you! ❤️

Thanks for the conditioner tip. I've made lots of faux leather. But never thought of that. So next one I will try it out. Tfs

Hello, magnifique résultat !!! Merci et à bientôt bye bye

OH MY GOODNESS! I just found out who Melina is! I've been enjoying her tutorials for years though I only recently subscribed! Lol Guess it's true, the apple doesn't fall far from the tree!

I am glad you told us to put a coat of collage podge to seal the Tim Holtz ink, I didn't think about water droplets activating the ink again....

Love your method, E 1 Thanks for the video. I look forward to trying this out. :D

Looks Great😉🙏🏻❤️🥰

I have laid my paper on my oven rack and turned the light on over night, it really helps it dry quicker.

I've seen people use shoe polish it looks great

❤❤❤

I put spray sheen spray on top of the reconditioned bag also & it sparkled..

I also used hair conditioner made big and small books love how they turned out and thank you for sharing I'm gonna try to make some tags and book marks.😘

I like to use a spritz made from a 50/50 mix of glycerine and water. No other conditioning needed. Also when all is dryer and complete, I add some wax type shoe polish, and it seems like real leather

🤩

Prayers for your family

May God be with you and your family…

Hi Edith. I hope you guys are doing well. This is such a pretty leather journal coverr. Crrumple up the brown paper into your hand is a great stress reliever. Is it good to use shoe polish instead of ink? I saw someone did that. Have a awesome day. Thank you so much for all your great crafting.

💔Our love, thoughts & prayers continued to be with your whole family ❤️ 🙏 We'll all be here when "M&E" return to your channel 🙏🏻, till then we'll enjoy reruns😊⚘️🦋❤️🙏

Is that a Teflon sheet u used for heat protectant, ty

Hello Ms E., I've seen this procedure, but some were a lil more intense r should I say detailed. I want something simple, not so detailed I would say No Way!! Thank you for the simplicity of this technique. when do you put the conditioner on. I think I missed this part. TYFS ur creative ideas!!! Blessings to you!!! Have a wonderful day!!! waiting to see what u do next!! 😊🦋

making this today 9/12/22

Col Idea Gota try my mc Donald bags I save

What can I use if i don't have ink colours?

When I tried to fold the page to sew in the signature it cracked, is there a way to fix that?

Do you put it on the leather you bought it from Dollar tree?
