DIY Cork Wreath


I have received so many compliments on my cork wreath that I decided to share this fun project!

The first, and most important, step is to collect about 100 corks.  If you are like me this will not take long, if not you may want to reach out to friends and family to help with the wine consumption :)


Wash, rinse and dry all of the corks.  If you prefer the stale wine smell then you can omit this step but I don't recommend it.
                      



Cover your foam with a tan colored fabric or burlap, gluing it as you go.
                                  



Begin gluing the corks to the fabric.  You may want to put them all in the same direction or every other making sure you completely cover the fabric.
                                         



Add ribbon and a bow...and Tada!

                              
Please share your corking adventures!! I'd love to see how yours turned out!
