Leather may not be for everyone, but fans of the stuff know that big statement pieces—sofas, chairs—can be pricy. However, accessories allow you to sprinkle smaller amounts of leather (real or faux) throughout your space, without the commitment or big budget. If you like to get crafty or are just looking to pick up a few leather accents for your home, here are nine leather home accessories you can buy or DIY.

Those on team DIY should be able to find leather at your local fabric store or in smaller pieces at a craft store. Some of these projects are also great for repurposing leather from a forgotten or dated piece, such as an old handbag or belt.
