Looking to add a little luxurious leather to your home without spending a fortune? These DIY leather project ideas are just what you need!
Leather makes any home look high end, but leather furniture costs a fortune! Unless you make it yourself, of course.
I've created home decor projects both large and small for a fraction of the price at the store. By purchasing an entire hide, you can match pieces and get the best bang for your buck!
I've searched all over the internet for the best DIY leather projects, from simple ottomans and cushions to more complex chairs and even a couch! You're sure to be inspired by something in this list.
