This is such a great project. You are so funny. Baguette really loves you...and the camera too. Thank you for rescuing her!
She’s the nosiest cat in the world when it comes to my projects 😂. Yet to this day has never ever once spilled or tried to get into any paint.
It really does look like leather. I've never seen someone sand between coats and use fabric softener. Really nice job.
It makes a big difference.
Ugh Baguette! 🥰 Meow! I have a deep love and appreciation for orange Tabbies. 🐈🐾 Queen of pouf. Love your content and videos. You are so creative and awesome. 😊
Thank you so much. Baguette appreciates the tabby love. Happy to keep making videos for you.
I must admit that I loved the pouff before you started. But it came out really good.
❤️ I promise she’ll be happy in her new home.
As an ethical vegan, I’ll support any furniture diy that ends with a beautiful piece where no one got hurt! Huzzah!
🙌
Wow if I walked in and saw this pouf I would think it was leather. You did a great job! But I really think Baguette thinks that is her pouf!!!
It is legally hers now for sure. We actually have one in the house that we call her throne.
You are my favorite. Love this….. also it inspired me to think about painting my toilet to look leathery and make everyone uncomfortable 🫠
Hahah. We love a troll DIY.
Have officially watch all your You Tube segments. Now I have to waiting a whole week for the next new one. Guess I could always watch all of them again. But that would be weird, right? Love the faux leather. Really amazing reveal!
Awww, thank you so much for the binge. 🙌 Watch as many times as you want. Baguette says it’s fine. In the meantime, working to bring new eps to ya!
Giiiiiiirrrrrrrllll that lil ass spray bottle squirt made me HOLLER! 🤣 as well as that first brush stroke! 🖌
Great effin job 🤌🏾
🐈
#BaguetteAuntieCrew
Hahahaha. Baguette Auntie Crew 4 Life.
Looks Great! If this one is for someone else, you gotta make one just for the Queen!
Lol. I know. She’s so demanding.
You need your own HGTV show. You're so creative and funny. It would be a hit. Also, the pouf came out really great. Baguette loves it! 😺😻😽
Baguette has been writing to HGTV, but they haven’t responded yet. 😂
@@LaughCryDIY Lol! 🤣
I like your videos before I even watch them. I know they're gonna be good.
😘🤗 my girl!
My mind is legitimately blown! Like... is that even the same pouff? Wow! Great job.
This really excited me and gave me tons of inspiration. Thanks! ❤️
Thank you! There are some really amazing transformations for painting. One girl painted a velvet couch emerald green!
@@LaughCryDIY she painted velvet!? I could barely wrap my head around the fact that you were painting something to look leather in the first place, but I couldn't imagine tackling velvet! 🤯
That must've been such a fun transformation!
@@michaelbeck4236 has to be seen to be believed: debisdesigndiary.com/how-to-paint-upholstery-keep-the-soft-texture-of-the-fabric-even-velvet/
@LaughCryDIY pardon me while I'm actively losing my mind over how cool this technique is! I guess seeing really is believing! 😅
That turned out so nice, Katy! You color matched with Baguette so you were off to a great start. The blending method turned out real nice. I liked the distressed method as well. I will be on the look out for a poof😉
Just know that if you get one, Baguette will be over to claim it as her own.
Baguette wasn't impressed at the beginning of the video 🤣
Let’s be real: When is she impressed? 😂 She naturally has a resting b**** face, but it’s not her fault! 😂
WOW how cool!!!! 😃😃😃 Baguette is insane 😄😄😄 Katy you rock 🔶🔶🔶
She is too wild. She won’t let me have the pouf back!
I was nervous watching this, but you prevailed and it turned out super! Great job! And Baguette approved. ❤️🐈
I was nervous doing it. 😂 But I’m pretty happy with it. Super easy just takes a lot of coats.
WOWWWW everything you do is so stunning!!
YOU ARE THE QUEEN OF POOOOOOOOOOOOOUUUUUUUUUUF! 👸
Haha. I will ask a Baguette if I can take the crown.
I'm honestly surprised that you only have 5.3K views for this piece of art work, lol...this was really great! Thank you for sharing it. You made it look much easier than I'm sure it was but makes me think "hmmm, maybe I can do that too" lol :) Inspiration!
Haha. It was pretty easy! But super fun to do, so I say do it!
@@LaughCryDIY 😆💝💝💝
Great idea, I never knew you could paint furniture. Looks great!
It is magic
Sorry I was late to the party ( traveling). Was worth the wait! Katy you do not disappoint,pouf looks amazing, love your work😻
Thank you so much! Baguette may not let it go, but what can we do. 😂
Secret is safe with me, Katy 😊
Thanks, babe 😉
Lone Fox does a great faux leather chair re-do on a thrifted chair and it is totally FAB. He uses fabric softener too but different proportions. He has a couple links in his description box. I totally adore your sofa, and agree it looks totally hugh end, cause I was looking for one like that and couldn't even afford Ikea's low prices. Now what you paid for yours is totally my kinda budget. Time to start looking for some furniture to refurb. TFS
Love his tutorial
You can also use (crumpled tissue paper) for a leather look on a surface (coffee table for example) by hodge podging smoothed out crumpled tissue paper on the service then painting color of your choice and painting like you did. If you want just stripes of a leather look, take masking tape and lay it on a service you want to cover, paint it whatever color, then wipe off. We used to do it on flower pots and cover with pieces of masking tape to cover the whole pot then paint (then stain to get that leather look).:
This is so clever!!!!! I’m forever impressed by the DIY community.
@@LaughCryDIY before I started doing cakes I crafted/DYI’s a ton! I even worked at Home Depot for 7 years and learned a lot there as well!
That’s a great idea! I never thought of painting fabric. I want to try it with another color.
Do it! Super easy just takes a few coats.
Looks great but I wouldve preferred a more chocolate color for the darker tone. This one is kind of green. I love your channel and you are so much fun to watch.
Yeah, it’s so tough to get accurate color on film. But looks solid in person.
Thanks!
Girl you are on fire! I would of never known, great job❤️
We love lies!!!!
@@LaughCryDIY and getting away with it.
In honor of the NSYNC shirt... I bought one from Torrid yesterday. Oddly enough, I thought of you when I did!
I AM SO HONORED. 😭 I hope you wear it with pride.
Our names are spelled the same way!! i’ve never met another Katy!!
Hell yeah. You, me, and Katy Perry. Lol.
Looks amazing! I already own a crappy chair so hmmm….. 😁
Do it!!!
Love it!
So does Baguette 😂
Nice!!!
❤️
How has it held up?
Fine so far!
This turned out beautifully ❤️ However, I can still hope that more people will release themselves from the shackles of the latex paint+softener method and embrace the more eco-friendly method of using chalk paint & wax sealant method for a leather look finish (which is actually a better technique also)... and embrace some of the smaller women-owned indie chalk paint brands which are AMAZING (and can use the support and visibility) instead of defaulting to huge brands. 🥺Now let me get out these comments before I fall off my pedestal and hurt myself, honey 🤣🤣
Don’t worry! I remember what you said, and I ordered some for an upcoming project!!!!
Cool project, but that color 🥴
