strumf1k2 Report post Posted March 9, 2013 Hi guys! I'm a noob in leatherworking and I want to find out how to harden/wrinkle leather. I've attached a photo of a journal i've bought and I was wondering how can I make leather stay in one place and stay hard like the ornament's hair/scarf on the cover of my journal (the photo I attached). Tx in advance! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikesmith648 Report post Posted March 9, 2013 hot water and then form it and let it dry...........could also bake in oven on lowest temp setting for an hour........make sure to check it frequently though so it doesn't burn Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
