Can I Dye A Leather Sofa

[pinkerton]

I have a lemon coloured leather sofa that I would like to change the colour of. Any suggestions?

Having it done professionally might be the way.

However, have a look at this.

Must be able to, but why would one want to tackle that ? May as well sell the old one and buy one in the colour you do want.

I wouldn't bother. Even dying a pair of leather shoes doesn't give great results. I'd hate to tackle a sofa.

A throw would help could you imagine the bother and if you got it done by a expert it would cost an armchair and a leg

You can pinkerton. Not a job for the faint hearted though.

I would be very concerned about the dye not penetrating the leather enough. If you do shoes or a handbag the dye tends to sit on the surface, and easily comes off with knocks and scrapes.
I'm imagining the embarrassment of a bottom-shaped patch....and a sofa-smudged bottom...
