 Note
from Cheri:
Save your wine corks! Making this gorgeous wreath out
of them will yield a beautiful decorative piece you
can display through the holidays or all year long.
Making this craft is lots of fun, especially for wine
lovers who can reminisce about all the great bottles
they've shared. The finished wreaths are fun to look
at for the same reason -- they are kind of like a wine
lover's scrapbook of happy memories.
If you don't drink so much wine, ask your local bartender
or restaurant waiters if they wouldn't mind saving corks
for you. If all else fails, you can get corks through
craft shops or even on eBay
(very cheaply). They won't have the same sentimental
value as corks you've saved from memorable meals over
the years, but the finished wreath will still be beautiful.
As beautiful as this wreath looks, it is shockingly
easy to make. If it weren't for the danger of getting
burned with hot glue, a child could do it. However,
because of that risk, it's better suited for adults.
