How do I make paper look old?

How can i make paper look old?

  • I have to do a social studies project and its about 1900 immigration to the united states. I have to make a paper on it, and it must be printed on paper that looks like it was from that time period. The paper needs to look torn, old, and like its been through 100 years of being handled. I know I can burn the edges, and put tea bags on it to make it tinted however do I do that to the paper before or after ive printed it? If i do it after wont it ruin my text? Or, if I do it before, will it screw up my printer? PLEASE HELP!!!!

  • Answer:

    You may want to add text AFTER you use the teabags (which is the best way to make paper look "aged" in my opinion.
