Does anyone have a great recipe for leather preservative/cream containing propolis and beeswax?
We have leather furniture that takes a beating in our passive solar home...lots of warm sunshhine...plants, cat and humans love it but the furniture takes a hit. Thank you, Donna

I don't have the recipe, but I have used a leather preservative made by Obenauf with great results. I think they have a web site if you're interested.

Thank you Garry,
I saw their website earlier today, my husband says I should buy it and not try anything experimental on the leather....I think you are both right!! They had some impressive testimonials and if you have used their product and received great results, that is really what I am after,
Thanks so much D

I made mine with beeswax and vaseline 1:1. Melt the beeswax, remove from heat, add the vaseline, stir until it's starts to set up.
