lets look at some great styling....Sibella Court-The Society-Australia

I have got to hand it to you Sibella...You have got great STYLE!
look at the overpainting on the pillow.Look at the layering of elements on the graphic work. 
Notice how she layers graphic elements, and even her interiors have many layers. Mixing old, new, and elements that are made to look old.  Tea staining and coffee staining papers are a great way to age paper, cloth, and even bone beads. I use that  alot in my work. I especially like to use tea as it has a sepia look.  Often I have used a lighter to burn edges as well.  Next I am going to try to tea stain walls.  What ideas do you have for layering and aging pieces?  Please do tell.
