Is it possible to make pink dye for leather, i cant find any white leather dye to mix in with red and i've tried water and isopropyl alcohol as dilution mediums, but all i get is a lighter red. Is there any way to make pink? thank you
Hi, There isn't an alcohol-based white dye available. You can use Fiebing's Oxblood dye diluted with alcohol. For best results, apply it to natural vegetable-tanned leather, preferably a lighter shade. You can find the dye here: amzn.to/3FOrmED
The process is the same, but you need to be quick with it as alcohol-based dyes dry much faster. For better results, dilute the dye with a little alcohol.
in this video I used alcohol based dyes.... I just mixed with alcohol this time and not water. I never tried it on chrome leather, but i am pretty sure that it doesn't work
That was awesome! Thanks so much! I just received a journal from Amazon that has a hideous dye job. It’s beyond disastrous (poor leather: thin & scratched & scuffed that I guess they tried to pass off by doing an added “distressed/vintage” vibe on while I couldn’t have cared less about that part as we raised cattle & i would rather have seen it tbh bc it tells their story & honors their lives imho & I am trying to figure out how to fix it. It honestly smells like motor oil was used on it. It feels like it too. It was hand stamped & badly dyed, but I’m trying to make lemonade out of a lemon if I can. Lol. Tho honestly I should probably just send it back. I quit buying from their third party sellers bc of quality control issues like this one. The goods received never match the lovely pics of the items advertised. Thx for giving me some ideas. I was able to lift off some of the nastiness with a wet paper towel, but I think I need leather cleaner or something else at this point. The dye was either applied very unevenly or it absorbed very unevenly & it’s just an eyesore to look at. The hand stamping they did though is pretty decent except the leather is so thin that the leather has buckled in many places which stain as the journal is for me I don’t care too much about, but I would like it to be pleasant to look at & not feel like motor oil & have this nasty, viscous stuff come off on my hands every time I pick it up. Honestly it might be beyond help or beyond my capabilities & current art supplies lol. I just like handmade items & I know that every artisan has to start somewhere & I feel like maybe if I keep it I’ve helped put food on someone’s table somewhere in the world & I was very careful to leave them constructive criticism about what was wrong & what I liked about the item so they could improve the next ones. Nothing like my diatribe here. Lol. Both reviews are honest, but I try to be helpful & not hurtful. I truly enjoyed ur video. Well done.
Thank you for watching my video. Please don't try to dye an already dyed leather product. It will be pointless. If the product is poorly made and not as described, send it back and ask to refund. The dyeing techniques I show are for Natural veg tanned leather.
I have some vegan white leather boots and wanted to do a cool marble effect, on them, using my Ranger alcohol inks. Do I need to prep the leather beforehand? Also do you need a finish or leather conditioner? Is it even possible to marble with alcohol ink? Your video is the best I've seen regarding dyeing leather in fun ways. I would be grateful for any advice...
The techniques I am showing work on genuine, natural veg tanned leather. Your boots are already dyed and finished so I can not guarantee that you will have any good result attempting to dye them. I wouldn’t suggest it, but If you don’t wear them anyway you can experiment 😋
@@EleanaWorkshop here you say water based , but you used alcohol based dyes, right? So, it is the same to use water or alcohol based dyes? I’m confused 🙄
Καλησπέρα. Εμένα με εξυπηρετεί ένας προμηθευτής από Αθήνα ο οποίος κάνει εισαγωγή από Κίνα και πουλάει χονδρικης.. σε κατάστημα λιανικης δεν έχω βρει τις συγκεκριμένες κλωστές. Μέχρι πριν από κάποιους μήνες αγόραζα από ebay και AliExpress σε πολύ καλες τιμές. Απλά κάνουν περίπου ένα μήνα να παραδοθούν. Έχω link για την κλωστη στην περιγραφή
Water-based leather dye and I are not on speaking terms at the moment. Every time I try to dye really good veg tanned leather it gets very hard and brittle when it dries. I have tried using Neatsfoot oil on the leather before dying and then after. Then using Aussie conditioner. Not working for me. Still stiff and cracks when I bend it. We are talking about 3oz Hermann Oak tanned leather. Not much better than that. I have yet to see a technique for bringing back the flexibility of the leather after water-based dying. Never happens with Oil and Pro dyes.
I changed my dyes to fiebings that are alcohol based few months after this video. I had the same issue, but it wasn't much of a problem for me. I used to bent the leather and roll it to my bench when it was completely dry. Fiebing's works better for me!
Thanks a lot now I can fix my door panels I just made to make the color back the way I want cause water got on it now couple tiny spots are darker hope it sets tonight and doesn’t show water mark stains lol it’s just water like give me a break😂😂🤦♂️
@@EleanaWorkshop Ναι, αυτό είδα, ότι έχει λαό, κλασικά, αλλά κάθονται ήσυχα. Επίσης, κάτι που καλό είναι να αναφέρεται διότι είναι σημαντικό και απαραίτητη πληροφορία, εγώ έκανα το χιλιάρικο στα βγιουζ.
Спасибо
😊❤
they all look great but i love that blue
This is a fantastic video, trying to learn how to dye my leather for my journals.
I am glad that you find it useful! Thank you for watching my video!
I’m going to dye a pair of leather gloves after I get them finished I can’t wait!
Awesome. A few more techniques I can try. Did you happen to notice the face that was in the blue one when you finished?
I am glad you find my video useful! I can not see the face!😅 I watch it 3 times!🤣
Great teaching! Thank you so much!
Fantastic!!!
Fine! This is exactly what I was looking for, thanks.👍
This was a great video. Loved the technique.
Thank you! I am glad you find it useful 😊
Boss of your work 😮❤
Thanks a lot
Can i accomplish the same effects with fiebings leather dye
Yes you can... not the pro dyes though...
Does the gradient work with alcohol based dyes also? I dont have any water based ones
Yes it does. I don't use water based dyes anymore either. I will make an updated video using alcohol dyes
Is it possible to make pink dye for leather, i cant find any white leather dye to mix in with red and i've tried water and isopropyl alcohol as dilution mediums, but all i get is a lighter red. Is there any way to make pink? thank you

What kind of cloth are you using in this video?
Hi. I use any piece of cotton, usually form old pieces of sheets.
Can I dye motorcycle seat using this technique with this tools? 😄 amazing work!
Thanks for sharing, really good video.
Thank you! I am glad you liked it!😊
What kind of color are these?
you can use any alcohol based dyes. I prefer fiebing's dyes... I use the the last two years and I love them.
What colour is this please replay
I use fiebings dyes
But can you do this with alcohol based dyes and not veg tan leather?
in this video I used alcohol based dyes.... I just mixed with alcohol this time and not water. I never tried it on chrome leather, but i am pretty sure that it doesn't work

Any alcohol or water based leather dye will work fine... now I am using fiebing’s dyes
Amazing video and method!!! What's the name of the leather finish ?? Thanks in advance
Thank you very much. I use Fiebing's Resolene Finish in neutral.
What brand of dye do you use?
I am buying from a local factory. The dyes I use are unbraided, but any water based dyes will work fine!

Здравствуйте! Не подскажете что за краска ?
Hello! you can find it in the description of the video.
This may or may not be a dumb question but would this work on fake leather?
Unfortunately no... 😅
How could I contact you about a large custom project?
You can send an email to info@eleanaworkshop.com . Thank you
Would this work for my car booth
I don’t think that your car’s booth is made of raw natural veg tanned leather... so probably no. 😋
@@EleanaWorkshop fair enough
