I tried painting a velvet chair to look like leather | DIY faux leather chair

Hello everybody! In this video I show you how I painted this velvet vintage chair to look like leather, I've seen a lot of other youtubers ( Lone Fox, DIY Danie, and Jamie and Sarah to name a few!) trying out this DIY fabric to "leather" trend where you take latex paint and mix it with fabric softener, paint it right on the chair {or couch} and it magically ends up looking like faux leather!
I really wanted to try this out for myself, but with a slight twist... I wanted to see if I could paint a more textured fabric, crushed velvet, to be specific, and have it look like realistic faux leather. I opted to go for a dark brown, aged look instead of the more popular "camel" brown that I see way too much of. Don't come at me, I just think its a little overdone if you ask me..
But I think I did a pretty good job! What do you think?
Thanks for watching as always! It means a lot to me as a small youtuber ..
