Necronomicon: Book Of The Dead

Step 6 Tea Time

After it's dried, I took a hot bowl of water, and the tea bag and I made small bowl of tea. This is what I used to stain the inside with to make it look old and used. Let the bowl cool a bit, then you can use a sponge or paper towels to start sprinkling tea on the inside covers and dabbing them into the paper.

Tea is a great choice for making lots of absorbent materials look older, cloth and paper being the most common. One thing that might help speed up this step is to the put the tea in a spray bottle and mist each page to your desired darkness. Great tutorial though!
