Okay. I know how to stain my fabric and I have but isn't there a method to make the fabric look even more vintage or old. I remember seeing something about putting the tea in a spray bottle after the fabric is dry. I just soaked my mulin which isn't white to begin with and put it in the dryer to set. Any tips on this project?

I do mine the same as Mikki but I don't bake mine. I let it dry almost completely and then run it through the dryer for 10 minutes or so.

I always scrunch my project in a ball and place it in tea or coffee wadded up, after soaking awhile I squeeze excess out and bake on tray in oven on a low heat til dry. That's how I do it.
