Tutorial: Make New Books Look Old!

 here's a trick i've been using for four decades as a visual display stylist:
i shared a photo on Instagram the other day because i loved the display:
i snapped that at Roger's Gardens in Corona del Mar, California, 
where i have found visual and decor inspiration galore over many years.
this photo is of a cabinet filled with old books - 
only, they aren't old. they just LOOK old. 
and because of my 40+ year background in retail visual merchandising & display,
i know a secret to getting the same look!

so i shared the trick in my IG post... and a few people suggested that i create an actual tutorial.
sure, i can do that! ;) 
here's the quick tutorial in one easy image:
now THAT's what i call 'fast, cheap & easy'TM ;) 
(ps: i posted a quick VIDEO tutorial on the hwF facebook page, too!)
