How to make momigami 'leather' paper

This video shows you how to make realistic looking 'leather' paper using the Japanese momigami 'paper kneading' technique. Using just brown paper and 2 or 3 acrylic paints, you can produce beautifully soft, cloth like faux leather for use as luxurious gift wrap, covering books and journals, collage and even stitching projects. Here I am making red 'leather' but you can make any colour you like, whatever suits your project.
