Cork Wreath

[ibglowin]

Or what to do with all those corks you have lying around!

There are 9 rows with ~40 corks in each row so you will need ~360 corks total.

This uses a styrofoam wreath base available from Michael's or Hobby Lobby etc. Plastic toothpicks are inserted into the ends of each cork. Each cork is then inserted into the styrofoam base and held in place with hot glue.

Each row alternates in direction as your work from the outside of the wreath to the inside. Finish off with a piece of grape vine for an added touch.

I had one given to me. I ended up tossing it out within a month. I thought it was kind of tacky but that could have just been that one. Everytime you touched or bumped it corks would fall off.

A second look at the one displayed here looks a lot better then the one I had.

Yes I'm taking this out of context but it might be time for someone to go stand in the corner.

I was afraid that it might have come out wrong, especially when I went back and looked at the one Mike posted. The one posted really looks nice and is put together well. The one I got was thrown together and tacky.I have also seen the card holders Mike posted at weddings and they really do look nice and people like them.
