When it comes to craft and decorating projects, wine corks are always crowd pleasers. They’re so versatile and have such great texture that adds a touch of nature to any room. If you’ve got a pile of wine corks hidden away, pull them out and get crafting! And if you’re a teetotaler like I am, you might try local restaurants and bars and see if you can take some of their corks off their hands for them. I’ve rounded up 30 different ways for you to craft and decorate with your wine cork stash.

  12. I always feel there must be something that can be done with wine corks, and now I’ve got a few ideas. Freeform artwork a la Anthropologie may be a little while away, so may satisfy myself with a cork knife handle in the meantime…

  25. I thought all of the ideas were really terrific! I can’t wait to try them. (Only thing I could have used was explicit directions 🙂

  28. My local Whole Foods Market recycles wine corks. If you have an overflow & don’t know what to do with them. It’s a limited resource; and with the recycling, they can be made again into new wine corks. It’s a very good thought. I take mine there every few weeks.

    Thanks for the inspiration!

  58. I do not even understand how I finished up here, but I assumed this submit was once good.
    I don’t recognise who you are but definitely you are going to a well-known blogger if you are not already.

  59. Hi Kristi,

    I’ve dabbled a little into wine cork crafts, they’re easy and I always have fun with them and you’ve got a lot of creative ideas here. I love using them as place card holders. They were a hit at Thanksgiving dinner.

    I love the idea of the vase fillers. Think I’ll try that for Christmas 🙂

    Thanks,
    Liz
