Stop tossing those corks after you pop a bottle. Instead, keep them around for a while. You can use them later for a snazzy project or two.

With just a little bit of hot glue, some wire, and some paint, you can create something absolutely stunning for your home, whether it’s something decorative or something you can use, we have you covered with a lot of ideas.

2. Wine Cork Anchor

Anchors are always awesome to look at, and this nautical-themed crafting job is just as great. By using wine corks painted in three colors, as well as some rope, you can make your own. You can hang it on a wall or place it on a shelf; whatever you decide works best.

3. Wine Cork Butterfly

Do you love butterflies? We are in love with them! So, why not make a really cute wine cork butterfly for your walls? Maybe it will go better on a shelf? Well, whatever you decide, you first need some time to put it together, some paint, and, of course, wine corks.

Christmas is always on our minds, especially since it allows us so many crafting opportunities. If you want, you can also make your own Christmas tree decoration out of wine corks, which is pretty awesome. 

5. Wine Cork Coasters

Do you ever have the coasters on hand? How about if they looked prettier and you made them yourself? Maybe that’s when you’d actually take them out and used them. Well, with just a few wine corks and some ribbons, as well as plenty of hot glue, you’d be good to go.

Another really cool thing you can do with wine corks is a jewelry organizer piece. This will allow you easy access to the pieces you wear most often. The project is also super easy to put together, so why not make it?!

9. Napkin Holder

Something else you can make with wine corks is a napkin holder! These are just so great to have on your table, especially during family get-togethers. You only need a few materials to make this, and it won’t take too long to make either, so it’s a win-win situation.
