Colouring a leather sofa?

Has anyone changed the colour of their leather sofa themselves?
I was going to sell the corner one I have and buy a new one as after 2 years I just can't coordinate the colour into anything I like. I've now heard about products though which can change the colour, a bit like a sofa paint.
Has anyone used these and can recommend any or have any photos to show me if they are any good?
The sofa is in great condition so this really would be a life saver rather than going through the selling process and spending money on a new one 🤞🏼

I would look at local companies to do it for me. This one is national and says from £75. I would be concerned about leaving runs or uneven colour which would mean you couldn’t even re sell it and would still have to buy a new one.

I was tempted to do this with my sofa but when i looked into it it seems quite a complicated process and quite time consuming..think id opt for getting the professionals in for this one...

Some people paint their leather sofas. On Facebook there's a group dedicated to Frenchic Paint called Frenchic Fan Forum. If you join that and do a search there are photos and posts from people who have done it. I think I'd only do it if otherwise I'd be getting rid of the furniture anyway, so nothing to lose.
