Coffee Stain Art

Here's a good way to be creative with coffee: making coffee stained paper. Remember that there's no room for error.

What you need to do first is to gather a pile of papers. It's better to make use of old typewriting paper, those without any writing or prints at one side. You can also make use of old piano sheets to create a vintage effect.

Make a small batch of coffee in a cup. Make sure that the coffee is in room temperature. Otherwise, you'll end up with a paper mush when the coffee is painted on. Here's the fun part: with the use of a sponge or paint brush, make spatter marks or wipe the entire page with coffee. You can also make different batches of coffee, varying in strength for different hues of brown. This will give the paper its "vintage" look.

Have fun!
