I love ruining vintage furniture ❤️ using leather paint to give new life to a damaged item

[@ceasewatercolorarts]

People say it's temporary, then 4.5 years later, they're complaining about the chipped paint. I'd seal it.

[@ceasewatercolorarts]

@@Ohnoitswomp good customer service is giving them more than they asked for and doing the best quality work you can do. Don't give them an opportunity to be annoyed with you later.

[@ImAPotato-]

@@ceasewatercolorartsno it’s doing what they asked you to do and doing it well, doing more than they want is a good way to get taken advantage of and getting paid less than you deserve. Especially when you pay for your supplies yourself. If the customer doesn’t do what they said they were gonna then that’s on them, we can’t expect people to do what we didn’t ask them for they aren’t mind readers

I would still do the seal so that way WHEN she loves it you won't have to worry if it will chip off or peel. On top of you doing good quality work that you are known for.

[@TayBeepBoop]

You’re so kind!! Yes I think best practice is to do it as well I wasn’t able to find the sealant where I was 😭 I’m not sure how long term she plans on keeping them like this she might be planning on taking it to a reupholsterer asap though so it wouldn’t matter!

[@bluebelllove123]

I would seal it. Also make sure to let them cure for at LEAST 4 weeks before shipping them. I paint shoes and these are the best practices that I have found to make the paint last.

[@Nexitaluv]

I use these, too. Using heat after painting works fine to speed up the process. Never had to wait 4 weeks to ship anything, thankfully.

[@cutelittledevil88]

Do you have insta? I am curious about your shoes. I have some cowboy boots waiting to be painted and need inspiration.

[@uniquenewyork3325]

What type of paint and seal do you use?

[@zazu3006]

please share;) i’ve a bag that needs fixing and the shoes i’ve painted from tan to black chipped horribly.. although same paint on brushed heels from light green to cobalt turned out perfectly and stayed forever.. till the shoes died lol

[@KeiL0vesYou]

these are temporary, the people who own them are planning to do other stuff with them, and they asked for it not to be sealed

[@powerpuff4ever]

The Angelus sealer is a must honestly. I painted a kind of beat up leather bag my grandmother gifted me and the little designs I painted on haven’t chipped once like 5 years later

[@lulolie]

Did you not hear the part where the client planned to completely getrid of the leather?

[@axtravi]

@@lulolie Don't think they specifically meant that for this chair... They're just saying they like the sealer.

I did not see the vision at first! I was sad to see you paint over the black but then 😍 OMG freakin beautiful!!

[@Stardew.and.strawberries]

I was a costume and wardrobe technician at a theater and we used white leather paint on the tap shoes to make them white then sealed them and put a few coats of UV paint on them so they’d glow in the dark!

[@rkah6187]

That's so cool!

[@JackSpasojevich]

oh my gosh the end product was literally outstanding the black accents AH. such beautiful colors in all the right places

[@the_kleetus-yeeyee48]

[@kittycasino29]

I love the color!!! Omg, I bet pink would look amazing as well 😍

[@pjt3887]

This is so cool Love it. Even though it's temporary I still would have put the sealer on it because anybody sits down with any rivets or a label or anything that could poke that it's going to take the paint off of enchiladas and if I was her her like that for quite some time. It looks phenomenal you did a fantastic job!

[@lucygoosey69]

I love Angelus so much! I got into shoe/clothing painting a couple years ago and if you use their full spectrum of products (cleaner, thinner/softener if needed, 2-4 coats paint, sealer) it’s extremely durable. The only time I’ve had it fade or chip is when I didn’t use a sealer. And as she said here, the paint goes a long way. I bought a set of 12 colors in their 1 oz. bottles and have painted several pairs of shoes and a couple denim jackets and even with all the mistakes and spills I made, I’m just now getting to the end of my supply. They also have clear coats in a variety of sheens if you want something matte or glossy. 10/10 for beginners and pros.

Love the lilac so much!! Looks great. Wish I could see it close-up in person.

I'm an MCM and Saarinen enthusiast, but I hope this woman's customer chooses a purple fabric for the upcoming reupholstery. The chair actually looks really good in that color. Much better than I expected!

[@hellofwinnie]

Any ideas how to find chairs similar to the ones in the video? I can't find, no matter how hard I try 😢

[@JustOneSpoon]

@@hellofwinnie These look like they were inspired by the Saarinen tulip chairs and Saarinen table. You can try Design within reach (or one of the outlets.)

[@hellofwinnie]

@@JustOneSpoon that what I've thought so far 🤔 thank you!

[@Lischu]

@@JustOneSpoon No. They look like an exact copy of Eero Aarnio Cognac chairs. (I can spot a few differences, so I don't think these are original Cognac chairs.) Tulip is from 1955 and Cognac is from 1967, but then again these shapes were very popular in Finland at that time, so Cognac is not necessarily inspired by Tulip.

[@Lischu]

@@hellofwinnie Eero Aarnio Cognac is the original model if you wish to spend around 1000€ per chair. Usually vintage copies of Eero Aarnio chairs cost about the same as the originals.

This was a random recommended video, and I actually seriously respect you for pissing me off at first. I saw the title and the very beginning and got so upset...and then you talked me through it and convinced me to trust the process/feel free to change things.

[@thinkingbout]

Don't you need a sealant so that the color doesn't transfer to your clothes when getting wet because of sweat e.g.?

[@viddeliten]

If it's not water based, it won't dissolve by water.

[@Annapoorni_Arulanandan]

Sealant is usually to extend the lifetime of the paint.... i.e to lessen the wear and tear

[@TayBeepBoop]

The sealant isn’t necessary because the paint is made for leather, the product says the sealant helps it for longevity!

Angelus Leather Paints are AMAZING. I have their glossy sealer for protecting cosplay props and it's so nice. Non-sticky. Doesn't get any weird colors. Doesn't get porus over time like acrylic sealers do. I use their paint for everything now (fabric, plastic, leather, foam, etc). It even works on metal.

[@TyLeeslilsis]

*also to add, I do NOT use the sealer on fabrics. Never have. Most pieces were painted over 6+ years ago and have no show of wear. I only use the sealer now on cosplay props because they're made of foam and I want that glossy shiny look afterwards. But never used the sealer on fabric and it honestly, personally, looks better without it. Stays really soft too.

[@thatcrazychicken]

Hey love your work is AMAZING! One word of advice from one artist to another, if you try to paint in all one direction you avoid those lines that come out in the dried final stage. So if you start going from right to left, only paint right to left no matter how tempting it is to go other ways and back and forth! ❤ you’ll see a HUGE improvement on your work and it’ll pay off in the end. ❤❤ took me four years to fully learn that and actually accept it and practice it. I’ll never go back to any other way! ❤
