This is a fun little craft project
Take a champagne or wine cork, a little paint, beads and wire, and make an ornament or a memento
You can even use washi tape
I made this one for DD & NG when they bought their house. We celebrated with champagne and I saved the cork and turned it into a special remembrance for them
I thought they would hang it on their Christmas tree
Their address is painted on the bottom
DD hung it on the door of her glass cabinet in the kitchen
I made this one from the cork of a bottle of Proseco that HH and I shared to celebrate the beginning of our 27th summer at our beach house last month
I painted a white stripe around the cork and then painted anniversary on it. You could use a sharpie marker for the text too~
The cork came with this brightly colored metal cap which I secured with glue. I made holes in the cork sides with an awl {or use a nail or drill} and after twisting the wire and adding beads to match the cap colors I stuck the wire into the holes with a dab of my favorite glue
I am going to hang it on our little beach Christmas tree
This black and white one is made with a button glued on top of a wine cork
a strip of chevron washi tape around the bottom {add a dot of glue to keep it secure}
and the wire hanger is actually a wire cage saved from a champagne cork and inverted
Fashion one to celebrate anything you want!
And hang it in an unexpected place!
Thanks for spending time here today, I hope you will go have some fun creating something now!
