I am so glad you did this leather! I would imagine you might use a bit different method on a softer leather? At any rate, I see so many leathers just thrown to the ditch and now have an alternative to dyes and chemicals.
Gorgeous job. That leather looks like it has been that same color for fifty years. I thought it looked beautiful after the first coat of clear wax too and never would have followed up with the dark- but wow! Your end result looks amazing. You've definitely inspired me. I'm redoing all my leather chairs including the one I'm sitting in right now starting as soon as my wife decides on colors. Happy spouse=happy house!
Love this piece. I've done quite a few fabric chairs and love the finish. Thank you once again, your techniques and finishing touches are so fantastic.
What a wonderful transformation! I have a couple of leather ottomans I am going to try this technique on…really beginner friendly 😊. As always, thanks so much for sharing your artistry and talent. The paint and wax on your hands give me hope!!
@@JonathonMarcMendesPaintedLove Was sorry to hear you lost your mom. Glad she was close at the end. Losing a mom is so inexplicable awful. Glad you keep her close in these ways. 💜
Oh Jonathon I Just ❤️❤️ It . It Looks GORGEOUS 👍 Just ❤️The Colour 👍I’ve got some leather kitchen chairs I’m Definitely going to paint them NOW ! Have an Awesome day 😊
Hi mr Mendez, another great job, only thing I’ve never painted is leather so I’m going to find a chair at some stage and have a go , thanks for the vid
I'm so glad I stumbled across your video while researching how to paint my leather chairs. That's an amazing transformation. 😍😍 You did a great job. And your video presentation was flawless. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 I'm going to follow your method step by step (including using the same brand products) and pray that my chairs come out like yours. Wish me luck. 🙏🏾🙏🏾
Hey thank you very much I suppose it’s one of those things our mind gets the better of us even I struggle just before I start painting and then once I get stuck in everything seems to pull together 😊❤️🙏
Wow what a beautiful and tasteful job Jonathon Marc! I actually much prefer this colour to the burgundy shade..... and it fits in perfectly with your decor in your home.! 🌝🌞🌟Thanks again for sharing your creative knowledge and great video! . Love and light from Australia. xx
Thank you very much I’m really pleased with its new colour I know it’s not for everybody but it works really well in our home and it save me a lot of cost and hassle in finding something right 😊❤️🙏
OMG!!! I absolutely Love that! Thank you so much. That is one technique I can't wait to try. You bring so much life into all the pieces of furniture you redo. This is just absolutely Beautiful! Thanks again for sharing your talent with us 😍
Love it! I love how you still think of the highlights and shadows that would naturally be there. I have an upholstered chair in my art room and a purple chalk paint I'm going to paint it with. Just waiting for the right temperature so I can do outside. I'm going to paint the black base/wheels antique gold. Trying to go for a regal throne look. You know since it's my Art Throne! Just trying to figure out how I can add those nail heads or something else...stencil, gold leaf, etc.
That’s a great question when I paint fabric upholstery I always sand in between coats to get a smooth finish but with ladder it’s a little different has a smooth finish to begin with I suppose it depends on how well that you like your paint down the last text year and brushstrokes the better if you do happen to get one or two brushstrokes than sand and repaint 😊
That looks amazing and thanks for sharing. Can I ask how much paint you need for a project like this please. I have something in mind but don't want to over order on the paint.
Oh dear! Oh dear, I thought! What is J doing?? I think the colour on my iPad doesn’t do the colour justice because it looked like what comes out of a baby!!! But then the last shots really show the gorgeous colour! Amazing result!
In the past when I’ve done this it has been pretty durable the paint doesn’t seem to come off maybe just a few cracks will appear in the tight folds places like the arms but all I’ve ever done is replied clear and it works it just adds to the look of age the wax fits into the cracks and just appears to be just like aged leather it’s pretty good but 👍
Yes of course my mistake once I was filming I didn’t realise and of course it’s difficult to go backwards once a mistake has been made with filming it was a little bit disappointing not just for the camera angle but I could see how many grey hairs that I had in the back of my head 😂🥴
Hi Jonathon this looks absolutely amazing. I've just bought what I thought was a leather chair but think now its probably pleather and my husband has made a bit of a hash cleaning it thinking it was leather. Do you think this would work on pleather? I'm loath to do anything else in case it just makes it worse. Many thanks would love your advice, cheers Carol
Hello Jonathon, lovely piece! Could you please tell me if there are any alternatives to the Annie Sloan wax? Unfortunately, it's not available where I live, is beeswax okay for painted leather? Seems my choices are quite slim - what ingredients should I be looking for in a wax?
I'm considering 2 MCM dining chairs with mismatched (but in good shape) leather seats and padded backs. I want them MCM color, like a teal. No tufts, buttons or folds. Sounds like a good choice for painting? What is the "life expectancy" of paint over leather?
That looks absolutely gorgeous
Wouldn't have believed it possible - painting leather! What fabulous transformation. Thanks for sharing Jonathan.
All I can say is Freakin Fantastic!!!
You're pieces always come out so stunning. I love the confidence you have. Thanks for taking the time to share with us. 🥰
Thank you for taking the time to come and really appreciate it and it’s all my pleasure 😊❤️
Great job. You sure brought that old chair back to life with that sharp looking tan colour.

Hello Jonathon from Greece 🇬🇷
Love this, thanks for sharing. Now I'm off to find a leather chair to paint.
Thank you ever so much 😊❤️🙏
Wow. Wow! WOW! What a great tutorial! I feel encouraged to tackle my sofa one seat at a time. Now, what's the best way to clean the brushes?!
Love it! Does it wear well with regular use though?
Awesome chair 👍🏻
You make look so easy Jonathan, it looks beautiful.
Hey thank you very much I suppose it’s one of those things our mind gets the better of us even I struggle just before I start painting and then once I get stuck in everything seems to pull together 😊❤️🙏
It looks amazing…out comes the pumpkin leather chair I asked you about previously🤣❤️
Wow what a beautiful and tasteful job Jonathon Marc! I actually much prefer this colour to the burgundy shade..... and it fits in perfectly with your decor in your home.! 🌝🌞🌟Thanks again for sharing your creative knowledge and great video! . Love and light from Australia. xx
Thank you very much I’m really pleased with its new colour I know it’s not for everybody but it works really well in our home and it save me a lot of cost and hassle in finding something right 😊❤️🙏
I needed this video !!! Thank you. Now to do 2 club chairs from brown to gray!!!
This chair looks amazing! Great job!
OMG!!! I absolutely Love that! Thank you so much. That is one technique I can't wait to try. You bring so much life into all the pieces of furniture you redo. This is just absolutely Beautiful! Thanks again for sharing your talent with us 😍
Beautiful color. You made it look doable and I am going to be doing a sofa and loveseat. A little worried about waiting time before I can use it.
Now I need to find leather furniture and have a blast painting. Maybe I will have an adventure and go torquoise!!!
magnifique! est ce que vous poncez entre chaque couleur, merci

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Agreed, red and pink just don't work when primary decor is green. Not ready for Christmas decor ever, let alone year round!
Does it wear well ?
Wow, that looks wonderful. What a great job you did. I love it!!! I noticed you didn't sand in between coats, do you not do that with leather??
That’s a great question when I paint fabric upholstery I always sand in between coats to get a smooth finish but with ladder it’s a little different has a smooth finish to begin with I suppose it depends on how well that you like your paint down the last text year and brushstrokes the better if you do happen to get one or two brushstrokes than sand and repaint 😊
I'm a new subscriber and I'm really enjoying your channel especially decoupage, your tutorials are easy to understand so thank you!
💖💖💖
This is really wonderful. Do you offer links to the materials used? I cannot tell if you use a solid wax or a liquid wax.
That looks amazing and thanks for sharing. Can I ask how much paint you need for a project like this please. I have something in mind but don't want to over order on the paint.
Oh dear! Oh dear, I thought! What is J doing?? I think the colour on my iPad doesn’t do the colour justice because it looked like what comes out of a baby!!! But then the last shots really show the gorgeous colour! Amazing result!
Looks great. The painted studs gives it away though.
Amazing 😍👍. I wonder, how long time the paint is ok before you need to redo the paint? Your work is so great. Thank you for shearing.
In the past when I’ve done this it has been pretty durable the paint doesn’t seem to come off maybe just a few cracks will appear in the tight folds places like the arms but all I’ve ever done is replied clear and it works it just adds to the look of age the wax fits into the cracks and just appears to be just like aged leather it’s pretty good but 👍
I really enjoyed this video, but is there any way to position the camera so your head isn’t in the way so much? Thank you for the video!
Yes of course my mistake once I was filming I didn’t realise and of course it’s difficult to go backwards once a mistake has been made with filming it was a little bit disappointing not just for the camera angle but I could see how many grey hairs that I had in the back of my head 😂🥴

That looks amazing! So no sanding at all ??? Looks beautifully aged

Hi , can I paint my chocolate brown leather lounge a tan colour?
Would that cover the chocolate well enough?
Do add water to the chalk paint. Thanks
its been a few years, how has the paint held up?
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻😍
Did you add water to it?
