I keep all my wine corks. Do you do that?
Here is some of my collection:
Ridiculous, huh? I swear it’s taken me years to collect this many… at least three (quarters of one).
What better way to use up some of them than to make ornaments! So I consulted Pinterest, and here are my favorite ideas that I really want to try out:
{click each pic for the how-to}
Wine Cork Ball Ornament by Changing My Destiny
Wine Cork Christmas Tree by A Creative Princess
Wine Cork Gingerbread Man Ornament by Goodnyou? (the placement of these corks…hee hee)
wine cork wreath ornament by Moscato Mom- simple and cute
wine corks in a clear glass ornament by The Ivy Cottage
wine cork Christmas tree by sweetcsdesigns (not an ornament, but you could make it into one.)
and another wine cork tree, by The Homeless Finch (lots of other cute wine cork craft ideas in this post, too!)
wine cork Rudolph by Twenty-Something – awwwww!
Which is your favorite? Do you have any wine cork ornament ideas?

Thanks so much for featuring my DIY project on your blog! I found the inspiration for my wine cork rudolphs on Pinterest too and was so excited when I came across it because I am a wine cork collector like you. Unfortunately, the wine cork rudolph got torn into tiny pieces after my puppy decided it was going to be her new play toy. ;) Thanks for linking up to my post. Love the other ideas you have posted!

You are so welcome, Stephanie… this post was actually originally SEVEN wine cork ornament ideas, until I came across your Rudolph, and I just had to add him. Your pictures are beautiful, by the way. I’m sorry to hear about his untimely ending, but glad you were able to at least get his picture taken first! :D
I must pick wine corks in a clear glass. There is something shabby chic that is so appealing. Thanks for sharing these great ideas!
You are welcome! I’m so glad you enjoyed the post! :)
Wow, and I was just ready to toss out or give away two bags full that had been collected by me and at least two other friends for several years! New way to use them, PERFECT! Thanks so much!
Oh, yes, tie between reindeer and tree with buttons on it!
Oh good, I’m so glad you saw this before you got rid of them! Have fun! :)
