First, fill a bowl or container with water and throw in some black dye. You can add as much as you need to, depending on how dark you want your cheesecloth to be.

Dye Cheesecloth

Next, grab the cheesecloth and dip it into the black water. You can even get a perfect black if you were to leave the cloth in for about 10 extra minutes. Once you're ready, take it out and let dry.

Distress

Then, take the cheesecloth and rip through a few parts to make it look like a distressed cobweb.
