On the image
above is an old bottle with coffee stained
label. The decal on the right was printed on
plain white waterproof vinyl.

Ready for some
"old" labels. We played with these old medicine
bottles making vintage looking stickers or decal
printed on the Papilio waterproof decal paper
(self-adhesive) that had been stained with
coffee.

On the photo
above you can see three sheets that have been
stained with coffee and are now dry are ready
for printing.
This is an inkjet media and it is amazing how
well it accepts the colors and graphic again
after having been colored in this way.
We spent a whole afternoon "goofing off" and
making fun labels, fake historical maps, fun
certificates. Our creativity side may have gone
a little “too far" or became a little too
politically incorrect so images of those
”creations” are not posted here. But they looked
vintage and authentic and great for the intended
audience. For this coffee stain process we
recommend using the permanent adhesive version
of the vinyl, only.
