PAP FAB marble lavender 72x100cm
Vegan leather for your DIY projectIf you're considering a vegan and affordable alternative to leather, PAP FAB is what you're looking for. With a lifelike marble effect, you get a material that's easy to work with and gives a great result.Washing gives the cool leather lookAt first glance, PAP FAB looks like sturdy cardboard, but it's much more than that. PAP FAB is made from a mix of cellulose fibers and naturally extracted latex - a combination that offers a unique finish when washed. In fact, when PAP FAB is washed, it curls up a bit and gets that classic leather look that works perfectly for many DIY-projects.Three tips for you working with PAP FABDraw your pattern directly on the rear side covered in white with a pencil before cutting it out (don't use your fabric scissors for PAP FAB - it will dull them).The material feels like strong cardboard to cut, so when working on larger projects, machine wash (at max 60°) or soak the material before starting. That way, the material is more flexible to work with.If your project gets a little too curly, you can always smooth it by moisturizing the material and ironing it (max heat represents two dots).PAP FAB is water-repellent, but not waterproof.Will your next project include PAP FAB?We love PAP FAB for home deco projects such as storage baskets, candy bowls (PAP FAB is food approved) as well as flowerpot holders. And it's brilliant for bags of all sizes - from the small purse to pencil case and toiletry bag to larger mule bags and purses - or for accessories like the cool key ring.Search for "PAP FAB" on this page and find lots of exciting inspiration for your next project.
