How to make paper look old?
-
I'm doing a history paper due friday. He suggests the typed paper to look old and look as if it were from 1880. How can I make my report look old like from 1880? The assignment is also about pretending to be a factory worker and tell the factory owner about the problems in the factory. Should I spill ink on the paper to make it look like it's from a factory? Please do not suggest spill coffee because my coffee brewer is currently not working,

Weak tea is the traditional way to make good quality paper look old. In this case, darken and dry the paper before printing. Just after printing, rub the printing with a wad of cloth held in a tight ball. The goal is to somewhat smear the ink like the document had been pushing into a pile and pulled out for use, so rub in the same two directions - like back and forth - not just all over.

use a wet teabag to colour the paper, then i usually burn the edges of the paper, but for a report that might not be a good idea, um, the spilled ink idea sounds good to make it look like a factory worker printed it, also use a font that looks like a typewriter kind of font.

Well, i'd wet it all over. And then dry it with some blow dyer. And then crumple is up, and iron it. xD

this is what i do and i always get extra points!!!!! 1) get plain white paper. 2) Crumble it up. 3) Unwrap it. 4) Soak it. 5) Light a lighter. 6) Burn the sides, and put the flame under the paper to make it brown. 7) Find a black-n-white picture of young girls working (maybe from a history book. maybe like a diary entry.) i wish you lots of luck! Hope that helps
