i don't know if this is the right section 4 this, but how do you make paper look old other than using a teabag??
thanx

try ironing it on a high setting.

you can spritz it with lemon juice or rub it over if you prefer then apply some heat. You could put it in a low temperature oven or maybe try using a hairdryer (don't know if the last option works though)

Watch out when you heat it. It can become very brittle.

if you cook rice, you often get a great deal of starch run off when you wash it after it has been cooked. if you soak the paper in the starchy water it stiffens the paper, then, with some cairfull hands, rough up the paper on the pavement or on you'r pateo

Leave it on the parcel shelf at the back of the car. The sun will cause it to fade. You may need to do this several times if you want a whole newspaper (both sides) to be done. It also takes some time

put it under a grill or in the oven but obviously keep an eye on it if you want to keep it ; )
