Dyeing leather is a process that requires patience so never go crazy with the dye. Start with one thin layer and use a hair dryer to speed up the drying process before adding another layer. Just be sure that all areas are dry before applying another coat. Continue until vibrancy and evenness become apparent.
Can leather be dyed any color?
Natural, unfinished leathers take dye easiest, making natural vegetable tanned leather one of the best options for customizing. You can certainly add color to already dyed pieces, but be warned that the process can take longer to achieve a color you are looking for and yield uneven results if not done properly.
