I love designed papers, they are so beautiful and varied,

But there is something about parchment paper's that gives a good feeling, as if they contain a sweet and ancient secret from thousands of years ago

Today we will make parchment paper with an antique look together from materials that everyone has at home

In the guide I explain how to turn the parchment paper into a treasure map, but you can take it in any direction you want

Greeting cards, bookmarks, drawings, a treasure hunt game or anything you want

have fun

Supplies

the necessary materials

Cover for the work surface so that it does not get dirty (I used cling film)
Paper
A tablespoon of instant coffee mixed with half a cup of warm water
Hair dryer (optional)
3 tablespoons of uncooked rice (for treasure map)
Marker or thin black pen

Step 1: Wrinkled and Antique Look

Organize the work environment

Crumple the paper a little (not too hard)

Open the wrinkles and straighten them

Step 2: Giving an Antique Color Paper

Carefully pour the coffee over the paper

make sure the entire paper is wet

Step 3: A Final Wrinkled and Antique Look

Wait about two minutes and carefully, in order not to get dirty, pick up the paper and crumple it again

Step 4: Initial Drying

Open the creases and straighten the paper on the work surface (at this point I threw away the cling film that covered my work surface)

and dry the paper sheet with a hair dryer or outside for a few minutes

Step 5: Antique Look and Final Drying

When the paper has dried a little but is still moist

Create small tears in the corners of the paper to create an ancient and old look

After that continue to dry the paper with the help of the hair dryer or for a few hours outside

If you only want parchment paper

Your card is ready, you can draw on it to make greetings or bookmarks or anything you want

Step 6: Treasure Map

Pour the rice on the paper and with the help of the marker or pen go around the borders and lines it created

Step 7: Intermediate Product

After that throw away the rice

Now you can see an ancient map (see picture)

Step 8: Adding Places and Details on the Map

You can draw inside the map houses, seas, mountains, a road to the treasury, etc.

you can roll the paper a little to make a map roll

Step 9: The Final Product

Your card/map is ready

You can add the map to the search for the treasure game and it's really fun
