Answer 2

my grandson did this a couple years ago. We let the paper lay in dark hot tea for a few hours.Put it in a cookie sheet so it won;t wrinkle and check it every half hour until you get the shade you want. You may have to make fresh tea a couple time. Through the old tea out. When you get the shade you want, lay it out to dry. Then if you want,grandson did, take a lighter and singe the edges of the paper. This Works Great.
