Working with Leather

Your Glowforge works with hundreds of common materials – wood, acrylic, stone, and more – but did you know that it's equally amazing with leather? With Glowforge, you don't need to have any special tools or experience (or incredibly strong arms) to start creating with leather.

Quick gifts are a breeze with leather. At just the touch of a button, you can create presents that look like they came from your favorite boutique, like bookmarks, bracelets, and wallets. You can also dive deeper to create purses, shoulder bags, and even footwear. Leather is also one of the most versatile materials for dyeing, painting, staining, and more.

If you're ready to work with leather, we recommend starting with Proofgrade. Every piece of Proofgrade Natural Leather is selected for its flawless surface and high quality. It's beautiful by itself, and after months of use, it ages to a stunning, burnished glow. We offer Proofgrade leather in three thicknesses to match your needs for structural support and flexibility. Proofgrade leather is masked on one side with a removable protective paper sheet for perfect prints. As with all Proofgrade materials, it comes with a barcode that takes care of settings automatically, as well as a removable protective paper sheet.
