Leafing

Make your craft projects shimmer and shine with leafing materials from Hobby Lobby. Shop our assortment of gold leaf sheets and leaf flakes for all your upcoming projects. What is leafing? Start with a metal leaf adhesive, metal leaf sheets, and a good pair of craft tweezers or a gilder’s brush. It’s a great way to upcycle furniture, old home decor, or giving handmade crafts some shine. Finish off your craft or design with a spray sealer to protect the leafing from wear and tear. A great alternative to leafing is wax finish. You can simply use your finger to rub the wax over a DIY frame to give it a vintage finish. Brands like AMACO offer a variety of colors, such as black, gold, silver, and copper. A foam paint brush is an easy and quick way to cover your creations in liquid leaf paint, while Krylon leafing pens allow for easy touchups. Use painter’s tape to mask the areas you don’t want to leaf. Finding the right materials is key for a successful leafing journey. Combine your leafing with stencils and craft paint for a cool project that showcases your one-of-a-kind style. Gold metal leaf will add the perfect amount of brilliance, whether it’s used by itself or with a unique design. Stenciling is a fun and creative way to add patterns to your crafts. Give your everyday items and DIY projects a touch of shine. Create stunning leaf patterns on a canvas, or give an old picture frame new life. Your options are endless! Let Hobby Lobby be your next stop for all your craft and leafing essentials.
