Thoughtful Thursday & Wine Cork Wreath Tutorial

 

I work at a resort and one of the room service girls was nice enough to give me a whole bag of wine corks, so that I could make something with them. I came home around 9pm from work with my wine corks in the mood to create something NOW! (Low night lighting is the reason for the under exposed pictures – my apologies!)

To make the wreath you will need:

  • Wine corks (I used around 100 corks)
  • Hot glue gun
  • Wreath form
  • Ribbon

I used the glue gun to secure a layer of corks around the wreath form. I attached them going every which way.

Then I put on a few more layers.

I put a dab of hot glue on the back side of the wreath and wrapped it around.

Made a hanger out of ribbon…

and Viola!

The wreath makes a perfect kitchen decoration, party decoration, or even a great gift for your wine loving friend!
