No,, I do not have a ‘drinking’ problem.. but when your favorite winery has a bag full of used wine corks waiting for you, it’s because they know you have a crafting problem!
So I finished a few projects… ( and they’re not DIY projects!!!) I’m taking the finished projects to favorite staff at the winery…..

Cork trivets but the little ‘house’ will be a key holder, I just need to find 2 ‘coffee hooks’ to attach to the bottom… I bought all these frames for $5.00 at the Salvation Army thrift… they have the best/reasonable price on frames and 2 were new still in the packaging. >^..^< Happiness is being a katmom and Glamping Diva!

Well done, Grace. The only thing I ever did with wine corks was to use them to cork the odd bottle.

My sister made me a big bulletin board with her wine corks. She knew I didn't have any.

Grace these uses of corks are super! I love the pumpkin idea . You always manage to figure out creative uses of the simplest things!

I have a large trove of wine corks (even though Ed and I don't drink wine - at least he doesn't but I do a little). This is a great way to get rid of them and free up space in my craft closet room. Those pumpkins are so cute!
